Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Candida albicans, Microbiology, Corpus albicans, Cell wall and Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Fungal genetics, Glycosylation, Molecular biology, Gene and Innate immune system as well as Candida albicans. His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Morphogenesis, Immune system, Yeast and Virulence.

Neil A. R. Gow interconnects Inflammation, Polysaccharide, Host and Cell biology in the investigation of issues within Immune system. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mannosylation, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Fungal protein, Commensalism and In vivo. His Cell wall research integrates issues from Mannose receptor, Echinocandin, Caspofungin and Drug resistance.

His most cited work include:

  • Hidden Killers: Human Fungal Infections (1979 citations)
  • Antifungal agents: mechanisms of action (795 citations)
  • Evolution of pathogenicity and sexual reproduction in eight Candida genomes (781 citations)

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

Neil A. R. Gow mainly investigates Candida albicans, Microbiology, Corpus albicans, Cell biology and Cell wall. Neil A. R. Gow has researched Candida albicans in several fields, including Biochemistry, Gene, Virulence and Hypha. His Microbiology research incorporates elements of Innate immune system, Immune system, Macrophage and Yeast.

He combines subjects such as Mannosylation, Mutant, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Fungal protein and Immunology with his study of Corpus albicans. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Morphogenesis and Cell division. The various areas that Neil A. R. Gow examines in his Cell wall study include Cell, Chitin synthase and Polysaccharide.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Candida albicans (58.87%)
  • Microbiology (47.81%)
  • Corpus albicans (33.68%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Microbiology (47.81%)
  • Candida albicans (58.87%)
  • Immune system (16.20%)

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

His primary areas of study are Microbiology, Candida albicans, Immune system, Cell biology and Corpus albicans. His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like In vitro and Virulence. His Candida albicans study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Morphogenesis, Cell, Biochemistry and Phagocytosis.

His work deals with themes such as Epitope, Receptor, Host and Cytokine, which intersect with Immune system. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Cell wall, Echinocandins and Polysaccharide. In Corpus albicans, he works on issues like Transcriptome, which are connected to Immunotherapy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Recognition of DHN-melanin by a C-type lectin receptor is required for immunity to Aspergillus (85 citations)
  • The Viscoelastic Properties of the Fungal Cell Wall Allow Traffic of AmBisome as Intact Liposome Vesicles (69 citations)
  • The type VI secretion system deploys antifungal effectors against microbial competitors. (66 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Immune system, Candida albicans, Candida auris and Cell biology. In the field of Microbiology, his study on Fungal pathogen overlaps with subjects such as Reference laboratory. His research integrates issues of Receptor and Colonisation in his study of Immune system.

His studies examine the connections between Candida albicans and genetics, as well as such issues in Antibody, with regards to Disseminated Candidiasis and Fungal genetics. His Candida auris research includes elements of Genetics, Efflux, Drug resistance, Genome size and Phenotype. His work investigates the relationship between Cell biology and topics such as Innate immune system that intersect with problems in Mannose receptor, Epitope, Immune receptor and Protein kinase A signaling.
