Fellow of The Academy of Medical Sciences, United Kingdom

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

Virology, Immunology, Internal medicine, Virus and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome are his primary areas of study. Pontiano Kaleebu combines subjects such as Drug resistance and Genotype with his study of Virology. The concepts of his Immunology study are interwoven with issues in Observational study, Logistic regression and Risk factor.

His work investigates the relationship between Internal medicine and topics such as Seroconversion that intersect with problems in Hazard ratio and Incidence. Pontiano Kaleebu interconnects V3 loop, Serology, Antigen and ELISPOT in the investigation of issues within Virus. Pontiano Kaleebu has included themes like Young adult, Demography and Cross-sectional study in his Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome study.

His most cited work include:

  • Discovery and refinement of loci associated with lipid levels (1814 citations)
  • Common variants associated with plasma triglycerides and risk for coronary artery disease (598 citations)
  • The African Genome Variation Project shapes medical genetics in Africa (332 citations)

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

Pontiano Kaleebu mainly investigates Virology, Immunology, Internal medicine, Viral load and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Pontiano Kaleebu has researched Virology in several fields, including Drug resistance and Genotype. His study focuses on the intersection of Viral load and fields such as Lamivudine with connections in the field of Nevirapine.

His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research incorporates elements of Developing country and Demography. His Virus course of study focuses on Genome and Phylogenetics. His Cohort research focuses on Incidence and how it relates to Cohort study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (37.98%)
  • Immunology (31.16%)
  • Internal medicine (25.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (25.82%)
  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (8.01%)
  • Viral load (19.29%)

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

Pontiano Kaleebu focuses on Internal medicine, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Viral load, Immunology and HIV drug resistance. His studies deal with areas such as Cryptococcal meningitis and Oncology as well as Internal medicine. His Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 research integrates issues from Virus, Genome, Basic reproduction number and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak.

His Virus research is under the purview of Virology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biomarker and Cytotoxic T cell. The HIV drug resistance study combines topics in areas such as Dolutegravir and Drug resistance.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global and regional molecular epidemiology of HIV-1, 1990–2015: a systematic review, global survey, and trend analysis (86 citations)
  • Safety and Immunogenicity of a 2-Dose Heterologous Vaccination Regimen With Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo Ebola Vaccines: 12-Month Data From a Phase 1 Randomized Clinical Trial in Uganda and Tanzania. (54 citations)
  • Uganda Genome Resource Enables Insights into Population History and Genomic Discovery in Africa (48 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Genome, Demography, Genetics and Phylogenetics. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Viral load and Antiretroviral therapy. His Viral load study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Virological failure, Asymptomatic and Hiv subtypes, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

His study in Demography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Seroprevalence, Risk factor, Referral and Risk of infection. His study in the field of Recombination, Recombinant DNA and Breakpoint is also linked to topics like Subtyping. His Betacoronavirus study combines topics in areas such as Virus, Virology and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
