Kwen-Tay Luh spends much of his time researching Microbiology, Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Surgery and Internal medicine.
Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Mycobacterium abscessus and Microbiology.
His study focuses on the intersection of Tuberculosis and fields such as Incidence with connections in the field of Mycobacterium avium complex, Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare infection, Mycobacterium Infections, Epidemiology and ELISPOT.
His Surgery research incorporates themes from Respiratory disease and Intensive care unit.
His work in the fields of Internal medicine, such as Sepsis and Ejection fraction, intersects with other areas such as Acute coronary syndrome.
As a member of one scientific family, Kwen-Tay Luh mostly works in the field of Ciprofloxacin, focusing on Cefpirome and, on occasion, Drug resistance.
