Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Gene
Enzyme
Genetics

Peter R. Williamson mainly investigates Cryptococcus neoformans, Virulence, Microbiology, Cryptococcosis and Virulence factor. Peter R. Williamson has researched Cryptococcus neoformans in several fields, including Species complex, Phylogenetic tree, Molecular biology and Laccase. He has included themes like Cell wall and Cell biology in his Virulence study.

His work carried out in the field of Microbiology brings together such families of science as Melanin and Mutant. The various areas that Peter R. Williamson examines in his Cryptococcosis study include Meningitis, Immune system, Epidemiology and Incidence. His Meningitis research focuses on subjects like Immunology, which are linked to Interleukin 12.

His most cited work include:

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition) (4170 citations)
Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3242 citations)
IL-25-responsive, lineage-negative KLRG1hi cells are multipotential /`inflammatory/' type 2 innate lymphoid cells (343 citations)

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

His main research concerns Cryptococcus neoformans, Microbiology, Virulence, Immunology and Cryptococcosis. His Cryptococcus neoformans research incorporates themes from Virulence factor, Biochemistry, Mutant, Fungal protein and Laccase. His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Melanin, Pathogenesis and Fungus.

Peter R. Williamson has researched Virulence in several fields, including Extracellular, Phagocytosis, Cell biology and Vacuole. His Immunology research includes elements of Meningitis, Cerebrospinal fluid and Virology. His study in Cryptococcosis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Innate immune system, Cytoplasm and Candida albicans.
