Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Antibody
  • Cancer

His main research concerns Virology, Immunology, Measles, Virus and Cell culture. His Virology research includes themes of Complement fixation test, Antigen and Tissue culture. His work in Tissue culture tackles topics such as Poliomyelitis virus which are related to areas like Embryonic stem cell and Strain.

His Measles study which covers Neutralization that intersects with Infectivity. His research in Virus intersects with topics in Epithelium and Transformation. His Cell culture study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Antiserum, Kidney, Embryo and Morphology.

His most cited work include:

  • Infectious Diseases Society of America (2543 citations)
  • Cultivation of the Lansing Strain of Poliomyelitis Virus in Cultures of Various Human Embryonic Tissues (520 citations)
  • Propagation in tissue cultures of cytopathogenic agents from patients with measles. (506 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Virus, Microbiology, Immunology and Tissue culture. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in In vitro and Antigen. John F. Enders has researched Virus in several fields, including Cell culture, Molecular biology, Hamster, Antibody and Embryo.

His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mumps virus, Titer and Virulence. His study explores the link between Immunology and topics such as Disease that cross with problems in Pediatrics. His research on Tissue culture also deals with topics like

  • Poliomyelitis virus that connect with fields like Neutralization,
  • Cytopathic effect which is related to area like Sindbis virus and Viral replication.

He most often published in these fields:

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

His primary areas of study are Virology, Virus, Cell culture, Hamster and Molecular biology. His work carried out in the field of Virology brings together such families of science as Cell and Cell division. His work deals with themes such as Interferon, Microbiology and Tissue culture, which intersect with Virus.

John F. Enders has researched Cell culture in several fields, including Measles, Viral culture and Kidney. The study incorporates disciplines such as In vitro, Oncogenicity, Genome, Antigen and Virus Cultivation in addition to Hamster. His Molecular biology research integrates issues from Homologous chromosome and Embryo.

Between 1960 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Infectious Diseases Society of America (2543 citations)
  • Transformation induced by simian virus 40 in human renal cell cultures. I. Morphology and growth characteristics. (164 citations)
  • Multiplication and cytopathogenicity of Simian vacuolating virus 40 in cultures of human tissues. (111 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Cancer
  • Bacteria

John F. Enders mostly deals with Virus, Cell culture, Virology, Measles virus and Measles. His Virus research includes elements of Molecular biology and Antigen. His Antigen study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as In vitro and Hamster.

His work in Cell culture covers topics such as Interferon which are related to areas like Sindbis virus, Embryo, Viral culture and Antiserum. The concepts of his Virology study are interwoven with issues in Peripheral blood and Acid production. Measles virus is a subfield of Immunology that John F. Enders studies.
