Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Virus
  • Gene

His main research concerns Virology, Immunology, Internal medicine, Coronavirus and Virus. His Virology research incorporates themes from Antibody and Genotype. His study focuses on the intersection of Immunology and fields such as Respiratory disease with connections in the field of Retrospective cohort study, Diffuse alveolar damage and Respiratory system.

His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gastroenterology, Surgery and Intensive care. In his research on the topic of Coronavirus, Nidovirales is strongly related with Coronaviridae. His study in Virus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Polymerase chain reaction, Nested polymerase chain reaction, Antigen and Pathology.

His most cited work include:

  • A Major Outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome in Hong Kong (1799 citations)
  • Clinical features and rapid viral diagnosis of human disease associated with avian influenza A H5N1 virus. (921 citations)
  • Newly discovered coronavirus as the primary cause of severe acute respiratory syndrome (788 citations)
