Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Antibiotics

Lothar H. Wieler focuses on Microbiology, Escherichia coli, Virulence, Virology and Multilocus sequence typing. His research integrates issues of Enterobacteriaceae, Genotype and Bacteria in his study of Microbiology. His Escherichia coli research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Plasmid, Antibiotic resistance and Weaned piglets.

His Virulence research is under the purview of Genetics. Microbial genetics, Enterotoxin, Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, Chlamydiaceae and Chlamydiae is closely connected to Intestinal mucosa in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Virology. Lothar H. Wieler has researched Multilocus sequence typing in several fields, including Staphylococcal infections, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus and Typing.

His most cited work include:

  • Sex and virulence in Escherichia coli: an evolutionary perspective (1389 citations)
  • COVID-19: towards controlling of a pandemic. (591 citations)
  • Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing and AmpC-producing Escherichia coli from livestock and companion animals, and their putative impact on public health: a global perspective (414 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Escherichia coli, Virulence, Genetics and Gene. His Microbiology research integrates issues from Plasmid, Multilocus sequence typing, Genotype and Virology. The concepts of his Multilocus sequence typing study are interwoven with issues in Staphylococcal infections, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus, Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and Typing.

As part of one scientific family, Lothar H. Wieler deals mainly with the area of Escherichia coli, narrowing it down to issues related to the Antibiotic resistance, and often Antimicrobial, Drug resistance, Feces and Veterinary medicine. His research in Virulence intersects with topics in Intestinal mucosa and Polymerase chain reaction. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Adaptation, Colonization and Bacteria.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (79.04%)
  • Escherichia coli (45.59%)
  • Virulence (36.76%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Microbiology (79.04%)
  • Virulence (36.76%)
  • Gene (22.43%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Virulence, Gene, Genetics and Antibiotic resistance. He interconnects Carriage, Plasmid and Cytokine in the investigation of issues within Microbiology. His Virulence research includes themes of Multiple drug resistance, 16S ribosomal RNA, Escherichia coli and Multilocus sequence typing, Genotype.

His research in Escherichia coli is mostly concerned with Shiga toxin. His Antibiotic resistance study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Feces, Antimicrobial, Drug resistance and Biofilm. Lothar H. Wieler has included themes like Serotype and Phylogenetic tree in his Genome study.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • COVID-19: towards controlling of a pandemic. (591 citations)
  • Combined analysis of variation in core, accessory and regulatory genome regions provides a super-resolution view into the evolution of bacterial populations (110 citations)
  • Combined analysis of variation in core, accessory and regulatory genome regions provides a super-resolution view into the evolution of bacterial populations (110 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Antibiotics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Antibiotic resistance, Microbiology, Escherichia coli, Genetics and Virulence. His Antibiotic resistance research incorporates elements of Nausea, Pediatrics, Gentamicin and Enterobacteriaceae. His studies deal with areas such as Transmission, Plasmid and Carriage as well as Microbiology.

His Plasmid research includes elements of Typing, Colistin and Virology. His work carried out in the field of Escherichia coli brings together such families of science as Feces, Antimicrobial, Bacteria, Clone and Genotype. His study in Virulence is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Lineage, Multiple drug resistance, Functional analysis, Fosfomycin and Sequence.
