Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Angiogenesis, Pathology, Vascular endothelial growth factor A, Vascular endothelial growth factor and Vascular permeability. His Angiogenesis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Blood vessel, Cancer and Immunology, Fibrin. Harold F. Dvorak combines subjects such as Cellular immunity, Coagulation, Receptor, VEGF receptors and Pathological Angiogenesis with his study of Pathology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Endothelial stem cell and Endocrinology. Vascular endothelial growth factor is a subfield of Cancer research that Harold F. Dvorak studies. His Vascular permeability research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Secretion, Blood proteins, Microcirculation, Extravasation and Antibody.

His most cited work include:

  • Tumor cells secrete a vascular permeability factor that promotes accumulation of ascites fluid. (3401 citations)
  • Tumors: wounds that do not heal. Similarities between tumor stroma generation and wound healing. (3355 citations)
  • Vascular permeability factor/vascular endothelial growth factor, microvascular hyperpermeability, and angiogenesis. (2919 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Harold F. Dvorak mainly focuses on Pathology, Immunology, Angiogenesis, Vascular endothelial growth factor and Cell biology. His Pathology study combines topics in areas such as Blood vessel, Endothelium, Wound healing and Fibrin. In his study, Growth factor is strongly linked to Vascular endothelial growth factor A, which falls under the umbrella field of Angiogenesis.

His work deals with themes such as Endothelial stem cell, Endocrinology and Cytokine, which intersect with Vascular endothelial growth factor. The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Mast cell, Cell and Degranulation. Harold F. Dvorak has included themes like Cancer and In situ hybridization in his Cancer research study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pathology (38.74%)
  • Immunology (34.29%)
  • Angiogenesis (29.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2021)?

  • Angiogenesis (29.06%)
  • Pathology (38.74%)
  • Vascular endothelial growth factor A (18.85%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Harold F. Dvorak mainly investigates Angiogenesis, Pathology, Vascular endothelial growth factor A, Cancer research and Cell biology. His Angiogenesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endothelial stem cell, Vascular endothelial growth factor, Immunology and Vascular permeability. His Immunology research integrates issues from Vascular endothelial growth factor C and Skeletal muscle.

His Pathology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Blood vessel, VEGF receptors, Pathological Angiogenesis and Arteriogenesis. His research investigates the connection between Vascular endothelial growth factor A and topics such as Transcription factor that intersect with issues in Calcineurin and Tube formation. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell, Cell type, Endothelium and Molecular biology.

Between 2004 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Analysis of nanoparticle delivery to tumours (1689 citations)
  • Vascular permeability, vascular hyperpermeability and angiogenesis (424 citations)
  • Transcellular Diapedesis Is Initiated by Invasive Podosomes (403 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer

Harold F. Dvorak focuses on Angiogenesis, Pathology, Neovascularization, Vascular endothelial growth factor A and Vascular endothelial growth factor. His studies deal with areas such as Inflammation and Cancer as well as Angiogenesis. Harold F. Dvorak studies Pathology, focusing on Vascular permeability in particular.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Blood vessel and Cancer therapy in addition to Neovascularization. His work in Vascular endothelial growth factor A is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Immunology. Harold F. Dvorak has researched Vascular endothelial growth factor in several fields, including Vasculogenesis and Cell biology.
