What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Herbert Pfister mostly deals with Pathology, Epidermodysplasia verruciformis, Virology, Virus and Skin cancer.
He has researched Pathology in several fields, including Dermatology, Penile cancer and Intraepithelial neoplasia.
His Epidermodysplasia verruciformis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Acanthosis, Human papilloma virus, Carcinoma and Cancer research.
He works on Virology which deals in particular with Papillomaviridae.
His work carried out in the field of Virus brings together such families of science as Hyperkeratosis, HPV infection and Human papillomavirus.
His Skin cancer research integrates issues from Polyomavirus Infections, Papillomatosis, Betapapillomavirus, Dysplasia and Case-control study.
His most cited work include:
- Combined analysis of HPV-DNA, p16 and EGFR expression to predict prognosis in oropharyngeal cancer (362 citations)
- Expression of p16 protein identifies a distinct entity of tonsillar carcinomas associated with human papillomavirus. (342 citations)
- Prevalence, distribution, and viral load of human papillomavirus 16 DNA in tonsillar carcinomas. (302 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Herbert Pfister mainly investigates Virology, Epidermodysplasia verruciformis, Pathology, Virus and Immunology.
His Virology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Molecular biology, DNA and Drug resistance.
He usually deals with Epidermodysplasia verruciformis and limits it to topics linked to Skin cancer and Carcinogenesis, Betapapillomavirus, Dermatology, Genetically modified mouse and Cancer research.
While the research belongs to areas of Pathology, Herbert Pfister spends his time largely on the problem of Internal medicine, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Gastroenterology.
His Virus research integrates issues from Polymerase chain reaction and Human papillomavirus.
His study in Immunology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Transplantation.
He most often published in these fields:
- Virology (35.98%)
- Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (20.45%)
- Pathology (20.45%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?
- Virology (35.98%)
- Skin cancer (13.64%)
- Immunology (17.80%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Herbert Pfister focuses on Virology, Skin cancer, Immunology, Viral load and Epidermodysplasia verruciformis.
His Virology research is mostly focused on the topic Virus.
His Skin cancer study combines topics in areas such as Carcinogenesis, Genetically modified mouse, Pathology, Keratinocyte and Human skin.
His studies in Pathology integrate themes in fields like Cancer and Anal cancer.
His Immunology study also includes
- Organ transplantation together with Papillomaviridae,
- Urine and related Viremia, Retrospective cohort study and Medical microbiology.
He focuses mostly in the field of Viral load, narrowing it down to matters related to Real-time polymerase chain reaction and, in some cases, Case-control study, Beta, Genotype and Immunosuppression.
Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Anal carcinoma in human immunodeficiency virus-positive men: results of a prospective study from Germany. (137 citations)
- Beta genus papillomaviruses and skin cancer. (105 citations)
- Multicenter Study of the Association between Betapapillomavirus Infection and Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (104 citations)
