Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Virus
Gene
Antibody

Lynn Morris mainly investigates Virology, Antibody, Neutralization, Epitope and Virus. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lineage, Gp41, Immunology, Antigen and Epitope mapping. His Antibody research incorporates elements of Molecular biology, Immune system and Glycan.

The various areas that Lynn Morris examines in his Neutralization study include V3 loop, Peptide sequence, Clade and Polyclonal antibodies. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Viral envelope, Somatic hypermutation, B cell, Immunogen and Binding site. His studies in Virus integrate themes in fields like Heterologous, Gene and Immunoglobulin G.

His most cited work include:

Effectiveness and Safety of Tenofovir Gel, an Antiretroviral Microbicide, for the Prevention of HIV Infection in Women (2103 citations)
Structure and immune recognition of trimeric pre-fusion HIV-1 Env (544 citations)
Developmental pathway for potent V1V2-directed HIV-neutralizing antibodies. (528 citations)

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

Lynn Morris mostly deals with Virology, Antibody, Virus, Neutralization and Immunology. His Virology research integrates issues from Epitope, Antigen and Monoclonal antibody. His Antibody study combines topics in areas such as Lineage, HIV vaccine, Immune system and Glycan.

His research integrates issues of Heterologous and Genotype in his study of Virus. The concepts of his Neutralization study are interwoven with issues in Clade, Titer, Potency, Immunization and Molecular biology. His Immunology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Internal medicine and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

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

Lynn Morris mainly focuses on Virology, Antibody, Neutralization, HIV vaccine and Virus. His work deals with themes such as Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and Coronavirus disease 2019, which intersect with Virology. The various areas that Lynn Morris examines in his Antibody study include Lineage and Immune system.

His study in Neutralization is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Antibody Isotype, Isotype, Potency, Trogocytosis and Coronavirus. His Virus research includes elements of T cell, Serial dilution, In vivo and Immunodeficiency. Lynn Morris combines subjects such as Viral evolution and Somatic hypermutation with his study of Epitope.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
