Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery

His main research concerns Pathology, Glioma, Surgery, Astrocytoma and Radiation therapy. He frequently studies issues relating to Oligodendroglioma and Pathology. His Oligodendroglioma research incorporates elements of Grading and Proportional hazards model.

His study in Angiocentric Glioma and Anaplastic astrocytoma is done as part of Glioma. His work focuses on many connections between Astrocytoma and other disciplines, such as Internal medicine, that overlap with his field of interest in Gastroenterology. Within one scientific family, Peter C. Burger focuses on topics pertaining to Magnetic resonance imaging under Radiation therapy, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Third ventricle.

His most cited work include:

  • The 2007 WHO Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System (10685 citations)
  • 5' CpG island methylation is associated with transcriptional silencing of the tumour suppressor p16/CDKN2/MTS1 in human cancers. (1774 citations)
  • The WHO Classification of Tumors of the Nervous System (1559 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Pathology, Glioma, Surgery, Internal medicine and Oncology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Astrocytoma, Oligodendroglioma and Central nervous system disease in addition to Pathology. Specifically, his work in Glioma is concerned with the study of Anaplastic astrocytoma.

His study in Radiation therapy, Chemotherapy, El Niño, Progressive disease and Retrospective cohort study falls under the purview of Surgery. His Chemotherapy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Toxicity and Ependymoma. His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Gastroenterology and Medulloblastoma.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pathology (46.30%)
  • Glioma (20.16%)
  • Surgery (19.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (18.52%)
  • Oncology (13.17%)
  • Pathology (46.30%)

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

Peter C. Burger focuses on Internal medicine, Oncology, Pathology, Glioma and Medulloblastoma. The Internal medicine study which covers Surgery that intersects with Spinal Cord Neoplasm, Pathological, Medical diagnosis and Anaplastic astrocytoma. His work in the fields of Oncology, such as Chemoradiotherapy, overlaps with other areas such as Isotretinoin.

His Pathology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fusion gene, Oligodendroglioma and IDH1. The various areas that he examines in his Glioma study include Antibody, Survival analysis and Adjuvant therapy. His work in Radiation therapy addresses subjects such as Chemotherapy, which are connected to disciplines such as Ependymoma.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Histological Typing of Tumours of the Central Nervous System (935 citations)
  • International Society of Neuropathology-Haarlem Consensus Guidelines for Nervous System Tumor Classification and Grading (389 citations)
  • Combination therapy with anti-PD-1, anti-TIM-3, and focal radiation results in regression of murine gliomas (189 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

Peter C. Burger mainly investigates Pathology, Internal medicine, Glioma, Oncology and Cancer research. His Pathology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Young adult, Fusion gene and IDH1. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Gastroenterology and Medulloblastoma.

His Glioma study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gene rearrangement, Survival analysis, MYB, Epigenetics and Adjuvant therapy. His Oncology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Oncogenic mutation, Clinical course, Carboplatin, Anaplastic astrocytoma and Pineoblastoma. His research in Radiation therapy intersects with topics in Brain tumor, Epidemiology, Chemotherapy and Ependymoma.
