His primary areas of study are Virology, Molecular biology, Adeno-associated virus, Adeno-Associated Virus Type 2 and DNA. His Virology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genome and Recombinant DNA. His Molecular biology research integrates issues from Genetics, Psychological repression, Enhancer, Regulation of gene expression and DNA replication.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Virus Integration and Adenoviridae. The various areas that Kenneth I. Berns examines in his Adeno-Associated Virus Type 2 study include Plasmid, Gene, Mutant, Viral replication and DNA Integration. His DNA research includes themes of Vaccinia, Nucleotide, Tandem repeat and In vitro recombination.

His most cited work include:

Site-specific integration by adeno-associated virus (885 citations)
AAV transduction vectors (686 citations)
Gene Therapy Using Adeno-Associated Virus Vectors (639 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Adeno-associated virus, Virology, Molecular biology, Virus and DNA. His study focuses on the intersection of Adeno-associated virus and fields such as Virus Integration with connections in the field of Binding site and Chromosome 19. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Plasmid, Genome, Genetic enhancement and Recombinant DNA.

In his study, Palindromic sequence is inextricably linked to DNA replication, which falls within the broad field of Molecular biology. His Virus research incorporates themes from Recombinant virus and Nucleotide. Kenneth I. Berns has researched DNA in several fields, including Polynucleotide and Denaturation.

He most often published in these fields:

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2020)?

Virology (39.86%)
Virus (38.51%)
Genetic enhancement (13.51%)

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

Kenneth I. Berns mostly deals with Virology, Virus, Genetic enhancement, Adeno-associated virus and Cancer research. His Virology research includes elements of Plasmid, Recombinant virus, Recombinant DNA, Dependovirus and Gene delivery. His studies deal with areas such as Human liver, Clinical efficacy and Genome as well as Virus.

He combines subjects such as Transgene, Vector, Viral vector, Transduction and Parvoviridae with his study of Genetic enhancement. The concepts of his Adeno-associated virus study are interwoven with issues in DNA Integration, Adenoviridae and Medical education. His Molecular biology research integrates issues from Virus Integration and Multiplicity of infection.

Between 2000 and 2020, his most popular works were:

Gene Therapy Using Adeno-Associated Virus Vectors (639 citations)
AAV-mediated gene transfer of pigment epithelium-derived factor inhibits choroidal neovascularization. (217 citations)
