What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Gene
- Immune system
- Cytokine
Luc Van Kaer mostly deals with Immunology, Natural killer T cell, Cytotoxic T cell, CD1D and Antigen.
His Immunology research focuses on Interleukin 12 and how it connects with Innate lymphoid cell.
His study in Natural killer T cell is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cell, Interleukin 21, Cytokine and Cell biology.
Many of his studies on Cytotoxic T cell apply to Molecular biology as well.
His CD1D research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Clonal anergy, Bone marrow and Interleukin 4.
His Antigen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and Receptor.
His most cited work include:
- Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition) (4170 citations)
- NKT cells: what's in a name? (941 citations)
- Evidence for a differential avidity model of T cell selection in the thymus (651 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Immunology, Natural killer T cell, Immune system, Antigen and Cell biology.
Molecular biology and CD8 is closely connected to Cytotoxic T cell in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Immunology.
His Natural killer T cell research also works with subjects such as
- Cytokine which is related to area like Cancer research,
- Interleukin 21 and related IL-2 receptor.
Luc Van Kaer has included themes like Tuberculosis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis in his Immune system study.
His Antigen study incorporates themes from Antigen presentation and Intraepithelial lymphocyte.
