Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Virus

His primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Internal medicine, Pneumocystis carinii, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Virology. Viral load, CD8, Viral disease, Opportunistic infection and Interleukin 2 are subfields of Immunology in which his conducts study. His research in Viral disease tackles topics such as Immunopathology which are related to areas like Virus.

His Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gastroenterology, Retinitis and Surgery. The concepts of his Pneumocystis carinii study are interwoven with issues in Pneumonia, Fungal genetics, Microbiology, Molecular biology and Trimethoprim. His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research incorporates themes from Combined Modality Therapy, Chemotherapy, Alpha interferon and Sarcoma.

His most cited work include:

  • The cardiovascular response of normal humans to the administration of endotoxin (964 citations)
  • Pneumocystis carinii Pneumonia: A Comparison Between Patients with the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome and Patients with Other Immunodeficiencies (689 citations)
  • HIV-1 and T cell dynamics after interruption of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in patients with a history of sustained viral suppression (637 citations)

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

Immunology, Pneumocystis carinii, Virology, Internal medicine and Gastroenterology are his primary areas of study. His research links Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome with Immunology. In the subject of general Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, his work in Opportunistic infection is often linked to In patient, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Pneumonia, Microbiology, Molecular biology and Gene, Polymerase chain reaction in addition to Pneumocystis carinii. His work in Virology addresses issues such as Antibody, which are connected to fields such as Antigen and Immune system. Joseph A. Kovacs combines subjects such as Surgery and Zidovudine with his study of Internal medicine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (51.67%)
  • Pneumocystis carinii (26.77%)
  • Virology (23.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Immunology (51.67%)
  • Pneumocystis jirovecii (9.29%)
  • Virology (23.79%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Immunology, Pneumocystis jirovecii, Virology, Immune system and Internal medicine. His Immunology study typically links adjacent topics like Disease. His Pneumocystis jirovecii research incorporates elements of Pneumocystis pneumonia, Genome, Pneumocystis carinii and Microbiology.

His Immune system research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Inflammation, Viral load, Cytokine and Glycoprotein. The various areas that he examines in his Internal medicine study include Gastroenterology and Coinfection. His work carried out in the field of Pneumonia brings together such families of science as Mortality rate, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Drug resistance and Trimethoprim.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Clonally expanded CD4+ T cells can produce infectious HIV-1 in vivo (211 citations)
  • Genome analysis of three Pneumocystis species reveals adaptation mechanisms to life exclusively in mammalian hosts (87 citations)
  • HIV populations are large and accumulate high genetic diversity in a nonlinear fashion (87 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Immune system

His primary areas of study are Virology, Immunology, Pneumocystis jirovecii, Pneumocystis carinii and Immune system. His work deals with themes such as Reverse transcriptase, Serology and Squamous cell cancer, which intersect with Virology. The concepts of his Immunology study are interwoven with issues in Protease, Proteolytic enzymes and Outbreak.

Joseph A. Kovacs focuses mostly in the field of Pneumocystis jirovecii, narrowing it down to matters related to Pneumocystis pneumonia and, in some cases, Innate immune system, Chemokine, Microbiology, Interleukin 6 and Inflammation. His research in Pneumocystis carinii intersects with topics in Genetics, Glycoprotein, Pneumonia, Genome and Kidney transplantation. Joseph A. Kovacs has researched Immune system in several fields, including Proteases, Transcription factor, Human leukocyte antigen and Allele.
