Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • DNA

Leo L.M. Poon mainly investigates Virology, Virus, Coronavirus, Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 and Influenza A virus. His studies in Virology integrate themes in fields like Pandemic, H5N1 genetic structure and Antibody. The various areas that he examines in his Virus study include Transmission and Cytokine.

His studies deal with areas such as Alphacoronavirus, Immunology, Nidovirales, Severe acute respiratory syndrome and Coronaviridae as well as Coronavirus. His work focuses on many connections between Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 and other disciplines, such as Reassortment, that overlap with his field of interest in Antigenic shift. In his study, Enzootic, Lineage and Neuraminidase is strongly linked to Reassortant Viruses, which falls under the umbrella field of Influenza A virus.

His most cited work include:

  • The species Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus: classifying 2019-nCoV and naming it SARS-CoV-2 (2529 citations)
  • Clinical progression and viral load in a community outbreak of coronavirus-associated SARS pneumonia: a prospective study. (1697 citations)
  • Isolation and characterization of viruses related to the SARS coronavirus from animals in southern China. (1624 citations)

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

His main research concerns Virology, Virus, Coronavirus, Influenza A virus and Influenza A virus subtype H5N1. Leo L.M. Poon combines subjects such as Pandemic, Antibody and H5N1 genetic structure with his study of Virology. His Pandemic research includes themes of 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and Pneumonia.

His research in Virus intersects with topics in RNA and Reassortment. The study incorporates disciplines such as Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, Nidovirales, Coronaviridae and Phylogenetic tree in addition to Coronavirus. His study in Influenza A virus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hemagglutinin, Polymerase, Recombinant DNA and Neuraminidase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (76.61%)
  • Virus (50.51%)
  • Coronavirus (28.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Virology (76.61%)
  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (10.85%)
  • Virus (50.51%)

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

Leo L.M. Poon spends much of his time researching Virology, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Virus, Antibody and Coronavirus. His Virology study focuses on Outbreak in particular. His Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Environmental health and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak.

His Virus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Transmission, Respiratory tract and RNA. His work in the fields of Antibody, such as Serology, intersects with other areas such as Cross-reactivity. The Coronavirus study combines topics in areas such as Infectivity and Genetics, Gene, Phylogenetic tree.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The species Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus: classifying 2019-nCoV and naming it SARS-CoV-2 (2529 citations)
  • Viral dynamics in mild and severe cases of COVID-19. (778 citations)
  • Viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in clinical samples. (712 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virology, Coronavirus, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Antibody and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak. His Virology study combines topics in areas such as Pandemic, Disease and Pneumonia. Leo L.M. Poon has included themes like RNA, Outbreak, Virus, Respiratory distress and Respiratory system in his Coronavirus study.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Transmission, Innate immune system and Serology. His Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 research incorporates elements of Oropharyngeal swab and Whole genome sequencing. His work deals with themes such as Asymptomatic and Antigen, which intersect with Antibody.
