Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Microbiology, Cryptococcus neoformans, Mycosis, Internal medicine and Immunology. The various areas that John R. Perfect examines in his Microbiology study include Calcineurin and Virulence. His research investigates the connection between Cryptococcus neoformans and topics such as Gene that intersect with problems in Molecular biology.

His Mycosis study combines topics in areas such as Aspergillus, Intensive care medicine, Fungi imperfecti, Cryptococcosis and Aspergillosis. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Gastroenterology, Amphotericin B and Surgery. His Immunology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Fluconazole and Disease.

His most cited work include:

  • Revised Definitions of Invasive Fungal Disease from the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Invasive Fungal Infections Cooperative Group and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Mycoses Study Group (EORTC/MSG) Consensus Group (3691 citations)
  • Clinical practice guidelines for the management of cryptococcal disease: 2010 update by the infectious diseases society of america. (1551 citations)
  • Posaconazole vs. Fluconazole or Itraconazole Prophylaxis in Patients with Neutropenia (1305 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Cryptococcus neoformans, Immunology, Cryptococcosis and Intensive care medicine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Meningitis, Virology and Calcineurin in addition to Microbiology. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Cryptococcus neoformans, Mutant, Fungal protein and Human pathogen is strongly linked to Virulence.

John R. Perfect has included themes like Amphotericin B, Antifungal, Clinical trial, Disease and Aspergillosis in his Intensive care medicine study. As a member of one scientific family, John R. Perfect mostly works in the field of Amphotericin B, focusing on Surgery and, on occasion, Gastroenterology. The Fluconazole study which covers Internal medicine that intersects with Posaconazole.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (34.56%)
  • Cryptococcus neoformans (29.53%)
  • Immunology (17.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Cryptococcus neoformans (29.53%)
  • Microbiology (34.56%)
  • Cryptococcosis (17.11%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cryptococcus neoformans, Microbiology, Cryptococcosis, Intensive care medicine and Internal medicine. His studies in Cryptococcus neoformans integrate themes in fields like Phenotype, Gene, Virulence and Cryptococcus. The various areas that John R. Perfect examines in his Microbiology study include Meningitis, Human pathogen and In vivo.

His Cryptococcosis research entails a greater understanding of Immunology. His Intensive care medicine research also works with subjects such as

  • Antifungal that connect with fields like Drug,
  • Mucormycosis together with Aspergillosis. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gastroenterology and Amphotericin B.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Isavuconazole Treatment for Mucormycosis: A Single-Arm Open-Label Trial and Case-Control Analysis (291 citations)
  • Revision and Update of the Consensus Definitions of Invasive Fungal Disease From the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer and the Mycoses Study Group Education and Research Consortium (285 citations)
  • The antifungal pipeline: a reality check (243 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Intensive care medicine, Cryptococcus neoformans, Cryptococcus, Cryptococcosis and Microbiology. He has researched Intensive care medicine in several fields, including Invasive fungal disease, Antifungal, Voriconazole and MEDLINE. His Cryptococcus neoformans study is concerned with the field of Genetics as a whole.

His Cryptococcus research focuses on subjects like Immunology, which are linked to Degranulation, Disseminated Candidiasis and Neutrophil degranulation. His Cryptococcosis research includes elements of Meningitis, Ibrutinib, Treatment strategy, Complication and Disease. His Microbiology research incorporates elements of Dermis, Immune system and Epidermis.
