Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Trichobilharzia regenti, Zoology, Trematoda, Cercarial Dermatitis and Immunology. His research integrates issues of Endopeptidase, Cathepsin, Zymogen and Biochemistry in his study of Trichobilharzia regenti. His Zoology research includes elements of Intermediate host and Radix auricularia.

He usually deals with Cercarial Dermatitis and limits it to topics linked to Snail and Freshwater mollusc and Biotic component. As part of the same scientific family, Petr Horák usually focuses on Immunology, concentrating on Bird Diseases and intersecting with Infective larvae, Outbreak and Disease. As a part of the same scientific family, Petr Horák mostly works in the field of Galba truncatula, focusing on Stagnicola and, on occasion, Radix peregra.

His most cited work include:

  • The phylogeny of the Schistosomatidae based on three genes with emphasis on the interrelationships of Schistosoma Weinland, 1858. (212 citations)
  • European Lymnaeidae (Mollusca: Gastropoda), intermediate hosts of trematodiases, based on nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS-2 sequences. (181 citations)
  • Biology of the schistosome genus Trichobilharzia. (132 citations)

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

Petr Horák mainly focuses on Trichobilharzia regenti, Zoology, Trematoda, Schistosomatidae and Cercarial Dermatitis. Trichobilharzia regenti is a subfield of Immunology that Petr Horák explores. His studies in Zoology integrate themes in fields like Ecology, Intermediate host, Host and Snail.

Petr Horák interconnects Helminthiasis and Schistosoma in the investigation of issues within Trematoda. His study looks at the relationship between Schistosomatidae and fields such as Digenea, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Cercarial Dermatitis study deals with Disease intersecting with Allergy and Outbreak.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Trichobilharzia regenti (39.83%)
  • Zoology (36.44%)
  • Trematoda (24.58%)

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

  • Trichobilharzia regenti (39.83%)
  • Zoology (36.44%)
  • Snail (15.25%)

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

His primary areas of study are Trichobilharzia regenti, Zoology, Snail, Immunology and Schistosomatidae. His work carried out in the field of Trichobilharzia regenti brings together such families of science as Swimmer's itch, Cytokine and Cell biology. His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Host, Intermediate host and Larva.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Snail, Lymnaeidae are connected with Lymnaea and Freshwater snail and other disciplines. His Cercarial Dermatitis, Antigen and Tumor necrosis factor alpha study in the realm of Immunology connects with subjects such as Transcriptome. Petr Horák has researched Schistosomatidae in several fields, including Parasitology and Type species.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Avian Schistosomes and Outbreaks of Cercarial Dermatitis (61 citations)
  • The effect of public R&D subsidies on firms' competitiveness: Regional and sectoral specifics in emerging innovation systems (21 citations)
  • Geographical distribution of the giant liver fluke (Fascioloides magna) in the Czech Republic and potential risk of its further spread. (19 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Enzyme

Petr Horák mostly deals with Zoology, Trichobilharzia regenti, Cercarial Dermatitis, Intermediate host and Larva. His Zoology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lymnaea stagnalis and Snail. The Trichobilharzia regenti study combines topics in areas such as Lectin, Glycocalyx, Complement system, Antigen and Fucose.

His Cercarial Dermatitis research is under the purview of Immunology. The subject of his Intermediate host research is within the realm of Ecology. His work investigates the relationship between Larva and topics such as Host that intersect with problems in Schistosomatidae, Pathology and Schistosomatoidea.
