Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antigen

Ken Shortman mainly investigates Immunology, Dendritic cell, Cell biology, Antigen presentation and CD8. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Molecular biology, Follicular dendritic cells and Spleen. Ken Shortman has included themes like Interleukin 12 and CD40 in his Molecular biology study.

Ken Shortman combines subjects such as Cell, Precursor cell, T lymphocyte, Cellular differentiation and In vivo with his study of Cell biology. His study in Antigen presentation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Immune tolerance, Antigen and Antigen-presenting cell. His research integrates issues of Receptor, Cell sorting and Monoclonal antibody in his study of CD8.

His most cited work include:

  • Mouse and human dendritic cell subtypes (2074 citations)
  • Nomenclature of monocytes and dendritic cells in blood. (1537 citations)
  • Steady-state and inflammatory dendritic-cell development (1074 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Cell biology, Molecular biology, Antigen and CD8. His Immunology study frequently links to other fields, such as Cytotoxic T cell. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Cellular differentiation, T cell, Follicular dendritic cells, Antigen-presenting cell and Dendritic cell.

His Molecular biology study which covers Thymocyte that intersects with Precursor cell, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. His Antigen research incorporates themes from Progenitor cell, Adjuvant and Antibody, B cell. Ken Shortman interconnects Interleukin 12, In vivo and T-cell receptor in the investigation of issues within CD8.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (66.67%)
  • Cell biology (51.00%)
  • Molecular biology (40.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Immunology (66.67%)
  • Antigen (47.01%)
  • Cell biology (51.00%)

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

Ken Shortman focuses on Immunology, Antigen, Cell biology, Dendritic cell and CD8. His Antigen research incorporates elements of T cell, Immune system and Antigen presentation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Peripheral tolerance and Molecular biology in addition to Antigen presentation.

Ken Shortman has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Cellular differentiation, Apoptosis, Receptor, Follicular dendritic cells and Autoimmunity. His Dendritic cell research includes themes of Cell type, Immune tolerance, Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, Cytokine secretion and Neuroscience. His CD8 research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Colony-stimulating factor, DNA, In vivo and Virology.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Nomenclature of monocytes and dendritic cells in blood. (1537 citations)
  • Cross-presentation of viral and self antigens by skin-derived CD103 + dendritic cells (564 citations)
  • The CD8+ dendritic cell subset (414 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Immunology, Antigen presentation, Cross-presentation and Dendritic cell. His work in Cell biology tackles topics such as Follicular dendritic cells which are related to areas like Humoral immunity and Adjuvant. His work carried out in the field of Antigen presentation brings together such families of science as Molecular biology, CD8, Antigen and Antigen-presenting cell.

The various areas that Ken Shortman examines in his CD8 study include T cell and C-type lectin. His Antigen study combines topics in areas such as Immune system and Virology. His biological study deals with issues like Spleen, which deal with fields such as Macrophage colony-stimulating factor, Monocyte-Macrophage Precursor Cells and Macrophage.
