Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Cancer

Robert J. North spends much of his time researching Immunology, Immunity, Immune system, Spleen and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. His work on Antibody, Cytokine and Inflammation as part of general Immunology research is often related to Recombinant tumor necrosis factor, thus linking different fields of science. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Acquired immune system, Antigen, T cell, Ratón and Transplantation.

Immunotherapy is the focus of his Immune system research. His Spleen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Listeria monocytogenes, Cellular immunity, Phagocytosis and Monoclonal antibody. His Mycobacterium tuberculosis study incorporates themes from Interferon gamma and Gene, Major histocompatibility complex.

His most cited work include:

  • Abnormalities in Monocyte Recruitment and Cytokine Expression in Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein 1–deficient Mice (952 citations)
  • Identification of nitric oxide synthase as a protective locus against tuberculosis (949 citations)
  • Immunity to tuberculosis. (618 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Immunology, Immunity, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Microbiology and Immune system. His is involved in several facets of Immunology study, as is seen by his studies on Spleen, T lymphocyte, T cell, Immunotherapy and Antigen. In his research, C57BL/6 and BALB/c is intimately related to Transplantation, which falls under the overarching field of Immunity.

His Mycobacterium tuberculosis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lung, Gene, Virulence and Virology. His Microbiology research integrates issues from Acquired immune system, Secondary infection, Intracellular parasite, Listeria monocytogenes and Monoclonal antibody. His Immune system study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cytotoxic T cell and Fibrosarcoma.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (56.67%)
  • Immunity (39.17%)
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis (30.83%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2016)?

  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis (30.83%)
  • Immunity (39.17%)
  • Microbiology (29.17%)

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

Robert J. North spends much of his time researching Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Immunity, Microbiology, Tuberculosis and Immunology. His Mycobacterium tuberculosis research includes elements of Interferon, Virology, Molecular biology and Regulation of gene expression, Gene. His work carried out in the field of Immunity brings together such families of science as Nitric oxide synthase and Interferon gamma.

He has included themes like Acquired immune system, Oxidase test and DNA damage in his Microbiology study. His study looks at the intersection of Tuberculosis and topics like Macrophage with Systemic disease. His Immunology study focuses mostly on Immunization and Immune system.

Between 2000 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Immunity to tuberculosis. (618 citations)
  • The relative importance of T cell subsets in immunity and immunopathology of airborne Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in mice. (450 citations)
  • Expression of Th1-mediated immunity in mouse lungs induces a Mycobacterium tuberculosis transcription pattern characteristic of nonreplicating persistence (248 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Cancer

His primary areas of study are Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Immunity, Interferon gamma, Immunology and Microbiology. Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a primary field of his research addressed under Tuberculosis. His Tuberculosis study combines topics in areas such as Flow cytometry, Nitric oxide synthase, Macrophage and Immunization.

His Interferon gamma study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as T cell, Interferon, CD8, Immunopathology and Major histocompatibility complex. His research in Microbiology intersects with topics in Oxidase test, Cytochrome, Nitric oxide and Cytochrome c oxidase. His Transcription research integrates issues from Molecular biology and Protein biosynthesis.
