Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Ecology
  • Disease

Hendra Virus, Virology, Outbreak, Henipavirus and Pteropus alecto are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Veterinary medicine, Veterinary virology and Wildlife as well as Hendra Virus. His Disease reservoir and Natural reservoir study in the realm of Virology interacts with subjects such as Australian bat lyssavirus.

Hume Field has included themes like Enzootic, Encephalitis and Pteropus in his Outbreak study. Hume Field works mostly in the field of Pteropus, limiting it down to concerns involving Flying fox and, occasionally, Habitat and Seroprevalence. In his study, Pteropus poliocephalus and Mononegavirales is strongly linked to Henipavirus Infections, which falls under the umbrella field of Henipavirus.

His most cited work include:

  • Bats are natural reservoirs of SARS-like coronaviruses. (1584 citations)
  • Bats: Important Reservoir Hosts of Emerging Viruses (958 citations)
  • Isolation of Hendra Virus From Pteropid Bats: A Natural Reservoir of Hendra Virus (476 citations)

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

Hume Field mainly focuses on Hendra Virus, Virology, Flying fox, Veterinary virology and Pteropus. The concepts of his Hendra Virus study are interwoven with issues in Veterinary medicine, Zoology and Pteropus alecto. His research on Virology often connects related areas such as Serology.

His studies in Flying fox integrate themes in fields like Host and Foraging. His research integrates issues of Disease and Genus Pteropus in his study of Veterinary virology. His Pteropus study incorporates themes from Biochemistry and Seroprevalence.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hendra Virus (59.76%)
  • Virology (51.22%)
  • Flying fox (39.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Flying fox (39.02%)
  • Pteropus (34.15%)
  • Zoology (27.44%)

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

Hume Field mostly deals with Flying fox, Pteropus, Zoology, Wildlife and Hendra Virus. His work in the fields of Flying fox, such as Pteropus conspicillatus, intersects with other areas such as Lyssavirus, Australian bat lyssavirus and Tick paralysis. In his study, Computational biology, Megabat and Comparative biology is inextricably linked to Pteropus alecto, which falls within the broad field of Pteropus.

His Zoology research includes elements of Transmission, Range, Biodiversity and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. His research in Wildlife focuses on subjects like Coronavirus, which are connected to Coronaviridae and Animal ecology. Hume Field combines subjects such as Case fatality rate, Longitudinal study, Ordered logit and Veterinary virology with his study of Hendra Virus.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Statement in support of the scientists, public health professionals, and medical professionals of China combatting COVID-19. (84 citations)
  • Origin and cross-species transmission of bat coronaviruses in China. (57 citations)
  • Origin and cross-species transmission of bat coronaviruses in China. (57 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Ecology
  • Disease

His primary areas of study are Evolutionary biology, Cross-species transmission, Phylogenetic tree, Rhinolophus and Macroevolution. His Evolutionary biology study incorporates themes from Taxon, Phylogeography, Phylogenetics, Genus and Biological dispersal. His Cross-species transmission research integrates issues from Host and Betacoronavirus.

His study in Host is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pteropus and Virology.
