Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Microbiology, Genetics, Antibiotics and Gene. His Biochemistry study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Molecular biology. Julian Davies is studying Antibiotic resistance, which is a component of Microbiology.

In his study, Industrial microbiology is strongly linked to Biotechnology, which falls under the umbrella field of Antibiotic resistance. His work carried out in the field of Antibiotics brings together such families of science as Infectious disease, Virology, RNA, Natural product and Drug resistance. In the subject of general Drug resistance, his work in Microbial genetics is often linked to Wonder, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Origins and Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance (2775 citations)
  • Inactivation of antibiotics and the dissemination of resistance genes. (1398 citations)
  • Call of the wild: antibiotic resistance genes in natural environments (1271 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Microbiology, Gene, Genetics and Antibiotics. His biological study deals with issues like Molecular biology, which deal with fields such as Escherichia coli. His research integrates issues of Plasmid and Bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus in his study of Microbiology.

His Gene study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as DNA. His Antibiotic resistance research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biotechnology, Antimicrobial and Drug resistance. His study in Aminoglycoside is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Kanamycin and Neomycin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (35.71%)
  • Microbiology (30.69%)
  • Gene (21.43%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2021)?

  • Microbiology (30.69%)
  • Antibiotic resistance (14.55%)
  • Antibiotics (17.72%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Antibiotic resistance, Antibiotics, Biotechnology and Staphylococcus aureus. His Microbiology study incorporates themes from Bacteria and Gene expression, Gene, Virulence. His Gene study improves the overall literature in Genetics.

His work deals with themes such as Drug resistance and Public relations, which intersect with Antibiotic resistance. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Antimicrobial, Acinetobacter baumannii and DNA sequencing. The concepts of his Biotechnology study are interwoven with issues in Sanitation and Genomics.

Between 2008 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Origins and Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance (2775 citations)
  • Call of the wild: antibiotic resistance genes in natural environments (1271 citations)
  • Tackling antibiotic resistance (650 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Biotechnology, Antibiotics, Microbiology, Biochemical engineering and Antibiotic resistance. His work on Biofuel as part of general Biotechnology study is frequently connected to Chemical diversity, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His work in the fields of Antibiotics, such as Antibacterial agent, overlaps with other areas such as Chemical separation.

His Microbiology research includes themes of Bacteria, Enterobacter cloacae, Repressor and Virulence. His research in Bacteria intersects with topics in Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, Fosfomycin and Gene, Enterobacteriaceae, Escherichia coli. His studies in Antibiotic resistance integrate themes in fields like Drug resistance, Public relations and Intensive care medicine.
