Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Virus, Influenza A virus subtype H5N1, Pandemic and Influenza A virus. His work on Neutralization as part of general Virology research is frequently linked to Coronavirus, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His work carried out in the field of Virus brings together such families of science as Transmission, Cytokine, Outbreak and Microbiology.

His Outbreak study incorporates themes from Zoology and Viral evolution. His studies in Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 integrate themes in fields like Hemagglutinin and Orthomyxoviridae. He interconnects Lineage, Viral replication and Tropism in the investigation of issues within Influenza A virus.

His most cited work include:

  • Clinical progression and viral load in a community outbreak of coronavirus-associated SARS pneumonia: a prospective study. (1697 citations)
  • Genesis of a highly pathogenic and potentially pandemic H5N1 influenza virus in eastern Asia (1132 citations)
  • Genesis of a highly pathogenic and potentially pandemic H5N1 influenza virus in eastern Asia (1132 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Virus, Influenza A virus subtype H5N1, Influenza A virus and Immunology. His study in the field of Viral disease also crosses realms of Coronavirus, Pandemic and H5N1 genetic structure. His work in the fields of Virus, such as Orthomyxoviridae, overlaps with other areas such as Reassortment.

The various areas that Joseph S. M. Peiris examines in his Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 study include Zoology, Lineage, Clade and Flock. The concepts of his Influenza A virus study are interwoven with issues in Viral replication and Microbiology. Joseph S. M. Peiris focuses mostly in the field of Immunology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Internal medicine and, in certain cases, Gastroenterology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (86.49%)
  • Virus (67.57%)
  • Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 (38.29%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Virology (86.49%)
  • Virus (67.57%)
  • Influenza A virus (28.38%)

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

His primary areas of study are Virology, Virus, Influenza A virus, Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 and Immunology. In general Virology study, his work on Transmission and Influenza a often relates to the realm of Reassortant Viruses, Coronavirus and Reassortment, thereby connecting several areas of interest. In his papers, Joseph S. M. Peiris integrates diverse fields, such as Virus and H5N1 genetic structure.

His studies deal with areas such as Lineage, Gene, Genetic diversity, Outbreak and Chemokine as well as Influenza A virus. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Influenza A virus subtype H5N1, Genetic analysis, Lung pathology and Chemotherapy is strongly linked to Clade. His work on Antibody, Vaccination, Inflammation and Tumor necrosis factor alpha as part of general Immunology research is often related to CLEC5A, thus linking different fields of science.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The genesis and source of the H7N9 influenza viruses causing human infections in China (345 citations)
  • Seroepidemiology for MERS coronavirus using microneutralisation and pseudoparticle virus neutralisation assays reveal a high prevalence of antibody in dromedary camels in Egypt, June 2013. (262 citations)
  • Infectivity, Transmission, and Pathology of Human-Isolated H7N9 Influenza Virus in Ferrets and Pigs (251 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

Joseph S. M. Peiris mainly investigates Virus, Virology, Influenza A virus subtype H5N1, Influenza A virus and Outbreak. Virus is a subfield of Immunology that Joseph S. M. Peiris tackles. As a part of the same scientific family, Joseph S. M. Peiris mostly works in the field of Virology, focusing on Antibody and, on occasion, Biosafety level.

His research integrates issues of Influenza a and Chemotherapy in his study of Influenza A virus subtype H5N1. He undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Outbreak and Reassortant Viruses in his work. In the field of Tropism, his study on Tissue tropism overlaps with subjects such as Human coronavirus 229E and Coronavirus.
