Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Bacteria
  • Virus

Myron M. Levine mainly focuses on Microbiology, Virology, Diarrhea, Immunology and Vaccination. Myron M. Levine combines subjects such as Plasmid, Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli, Escherichia coli, Enterotoxin and Antigen with his study of Microbiology. Myron M. Levine has researched Virology in several fields, including Antibody, Immunogenicity, Salmonella typhi and Shigella vaccine.

As a part of the same scientific family, Myron M. Levine mostly works in the field of Diarrhea, focusing on Incidence and, on occasion, Disease burden. His Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Attenuated vaccine and Internal medicine. His work deals with themes such as Cholera, Randomized controlled trial, Immune system and Cholera vaccine, which intersect with Vaccination.

His most cited work include:

  • Burden and aetiology of diarrhoeal disease in infants and young children in developing countries (the Global Enteric Multicenter Study, GEMS): a prospective, case-control study. (1947 citations)
  • Community-acquired pneumonia requiring hospitalization among U.S. adults (1365 citations)
  • Global Burden of Shigella Infections: Implications for Vaccine Development and Implementation of Control Strategies (1082 citations)

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

His main research concerns Microbiology, Virology, Immunology, Diarrhea and Vaccination. He has included themes like Antibody, Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli and Antigen in his Microbiology study. His study on Virology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Seroconversion most often made with reference to Immunogenicity,
  • Shigella that intertwine with fields like Shigella flexneri.

His studies deal with areas such as Cholera, Internal medicine and Cholera vaccine as well as Immunology. As part of the same scientific family, Myron M. Levine usually focuses on Diarrhea, concentrating on Pediatrics and intersecting with Incidence, Epidemiology and Environmental health. His Vaccination research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Immunization and Reactogenicity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (44.99%)
  • Virology (37.32%)
  • Immunology (28.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Diarrhea (23.67%)
  • Immunology (28.74%)
  • Microbiology (44.99%)

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

Myron M. Levine mainly focuses on Diarrhea, Immunology, Microbiology, Virology and Pediatrics. The various areas that Myron M. Levine examines in his Diarrhea study include Case-control study, Epidemiology and Environmental health. His Immunology study incorporates themes from Typhoid fever and Cholera vaccine.

The concepts of his Microbiology study are interwoven with issues in Salmonella typhi, Salmonella, Antigen and Virulence. His study in Virology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Salmonella vaccine, Attenuated vaccine and Genotype. His study looks at the relationship between Pediatrics and fields such as Incidence, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Burden and aetiology of diarrhoeal disease in infants and young children in developing countries (the Global Enteric Multicenter Study, GEMS): a prospective, case-control study. (1947 citations)
  • Community-acquired pneumonia requiring hospitalization among U.S. adults (1365 citations)
  • Efficacy and effectiveness of an rVSV-vectored vaccine expressing Ebola surface glycoprotein: interim results from the Guinea ring vaccination cluster-randomised trial (565 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Bacteria
  • Virus

His primary areas of investigation include Diarrhea, Immunology, Pediatrics, Virology and Microbiology. He interconnects Shigella, Incidence, Etiology and Case-control study in the investigation of issues within Diarrhea. The Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Internal medicine, Clinical trial and Typhoid fever.

His Pediatrics research includes elements of Environmental health, Rotavirus vaccine, Vaccine efficacy, Developing country and Severity of illness. His Virology research incorporates elements of Antibody, Drug resistance and Cholera vaccine. His research in Microbiology is mostly concerned with Serotype.
