Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Genetics, Genotype, Rotavirus and Phylogenetics. His biological study focuses on Virus. His Rotavirus research includes elements of Group A and Reassortment.

Marc Van Ranst interconnects Evolutionary biology, Zoology, Sequence analysis and Sequence alignment in the investigation of issues within Phylogenetics. His biological study deals with issues like Genetic diversity, which deal with fields such as Group A rotaviruses. His Phylogenetic tree research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Papillomaviridae and Genetic variability.

His most cited work include:

  • Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy after Natalizumab Therapy for Crohn's Disease (947 citations)
  • Uniformity of rotavirus strain nomenclature proposed by the Rotavirus Classification Working Group (RCWG). (684 citations)
  • Full Genome-Based Classification of Rotaviruses Reveals a Common Origin between Human Wa-Like and Porcine Rotavirus Strains and Human DS-1-Like and Bovine Rotavirus Strains (654 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Genetics, Genotype, Rotavirus and Genome. The Virology study combines topics in areas such as Immunology, Microbiology and Reassortment. Gene, Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Sequence analysis and Nucleic acid sequence are among the areas of Genetics where Marc Van Ranst concentrates his study.

His Genotype study often links to related topics such as Genetic diversity. His research on Rotavirus frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Strain. His study of Whole genome sequencing is a part of Genome.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (59.52%)
  • Genetics (22.47%)
  • Genotype (19.90%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Virology (59.52%)
  • Genotype (19.90%)
  • Genome (14.75%)

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

Marc Van Ranst mainly focuses on Virology, Genotype, Genome, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and Virus. His Virology research integrates issues from Viral metagenomics, Reassortment and Genetics. His work deals with themes such as Genetic variation, Incidence, Phylogenetic tree and Rotavirus, which intersect with Genotype.

His Rotavirus research incorporates themes from Phylogenetics, Gene and Strain. Marc Van Ranst combines subjects such as GenBank, Computational biology and Metagenomics with his study of Genome. His work carried out in the field of Virus brings together such families of science as Interferon and Respiratory tract infections, Respiratory system.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • First cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the WHO European Region, 24 January to 21 February 2020 (241 citations)
  • Modular approach to customise sample preparation procedures for viral metagenomics: a reproducible protocol for virome analysis (151 citations)
  • Symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 reinfection by a phylogenetically distinct strain. (103 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of study are Virology, Viral metagenomics, Human virome, Immunology and Genome. Particularly relevant to Rotavirus is his body of work in Virology. The concepts of his Viral metagenomics study are interwoven with issues in Picornaviridae, Enterovirus, Zoology and Picobirnavirus.

His work in Human virome addresses issues such as Eidolon helvum, which are connected to fields such as Sapelovirus and Picornavirales. His work on Virus, Human Parainfluenza Virus and Orthomyxoviridae as part of general Immunology study is frequently linked to Age groups, bridging the gap between disciplines. He is researching Genome as part of the investigation of Gene and Genetics.
