Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Luc Kestens is best known for:

  • Immune system
  • T cell
  • Grain boundary

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Petrology, Paleontology is strongly linked to Recrystallization (geology). As part of his studies on Paleontology, he often connects relevant areas like Recrystallization (geology). There are a combination of areas like Grain boundary strengthening, Copper and Crystallite integrated together with his Grain boundary study. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Copper and Grain boundary in his work. His research brings together the fields of Crystallography and Crystallite. His study ties his expertise on Deformation bands together with the subject of Crystallography. His research on Deformation bands often connects related topics like Microstructure. He undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Microstructure and Grain boundary strengthening in his work. His Thermodynamics research is intertwined with Nucleation and Annealing (glass).

His most cited work include:

  • Generalized immune activation in pulmonary tuberculosis: co-activation with HIV infection (161 citations)
  • Selective increase of activation antigens HLA-DR and CD38 on CD45RO+ T lymphocytes during HIV-1 infection (159 citations)
  • Contribution of tuberculosis to slim disease in Africa (133 citations)
