Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Antibody

Her primary areas of investigation include Virology, Antigen, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Immunology and Vaccination. Her study in Virology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mycobacterium bovis, Tuberculosis vaccines, Immunity, Immunogenicity and DNA vaccination. Her Antigen research incorporates elements of Spleen, Cytotoxic T cell, Antigen presentation and Microbiology.

Her Mycobacterium tuberculosis study introduces a deeper knowledge of Tuberculosis. Her is involved in several facets of Immunology study, as is seen by her studies on Immune system, BCG vaccine, Cellular immunity and Antibody. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Vaccination, Viral vector are connected with Fowlpox, Heterologous and Virus and other disciplines.

Her most cited work include:

  • Immunogenicity and protective efficacy of a tuberculosis DNA vaccine (590 citations)
  • Recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara expressing antigen 85A boosts BCG-primed and naturally acquired antimycobacterial immunity in humans. (532 citations)
  • Protein Kinase G from Pathogenic Mycobacteria Promotes Survival Within Macrophages (483 citations)

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

Kris Huygen mostly deals with Virology, Antigen, Immunology, Microbiology and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Her research integrates issues of Mycobacterium bovis, Tuberculosis, Immunogenicity and DNA vaccination in her study of Virology. Her research in Antigen intersects with topics in Tuberculosis vaccines, Immune system, Spleen, Cytotoxic T cell and Antibody.

Her study in Tuberculin extends to Immunology with its themes. Her Microbiology research integrates issues from Paratuberculosis, Mycobacterium, In vitro, Interferon gamma and Mycobacterium ulcerans. Her Mycobacterium tuberculosis course of study focuses on Epitope and Molecular biology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (48.30%)
  • Antigen (43.02%)
  • Immunology (37.36%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Virology (48.30%)
  • Microbiology (33.21%)
  • Immunology (37.36%)

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

Kris Huygen spends much of her time researching Virology, Microbiology, Immunology, Antigen and Vaccination. Kris Huygen interconnects Epitope, Bacterial vaccine and Tuberculosis in the investigation of issues within Virology. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Paratuberculosis, Mycobacterium, Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium ulcerans.

The Antibody, Immunoglobulin E and Asthma research she does as part of her general Immunology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Comet assay, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Her work deals with themes such as Cytotoxic T cell and T cell, Immune system, which intersect with Antigen. Her Tetanus, Whooping cough and Diphtheria study in the realm of Vaccination interacts with subjects such as Pertactin.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Pertussis vaccination during pregnancy in Belgium: Results of a prospective controlled cohort study. (115 citations)
  • Safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of the candidate tuberculosis vaccine MVA85A in healthy adults infected with HIV-1: a randomised, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial. (100 citations)
  • Pertussis vaccination during pregnancy in Vietnam: Results of a randomized controlled trial Pertussis vaccination during pregnancy. (85 citations)

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

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Antibody

Kris Huygen focuses on Virology, Vaccination, Tuberculosis, Pertactin and Tetanus. Her Virology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phagosome, In vivo, Mycobacterium bovis and Microbiology. Her Vaccination study is concerned with the field of Immunology as a whole.

Her Immunology study focuses on Immune system and Antigen in particular. Her work in the fields of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Tuberculosis vaccines overlaps with other areas such as Placebo. The various areas that Kris Huygen examines in her Mycobacterium tuberculosis study include Drug resistance and Isoquinoline.
