Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • DNA

Ronald C. Desrosiers mainly focuses on Virology, Virus, Simian immunodeficiency virus, Immunology and Viral replication. His Virology research includes elements of Genetics, Antibody, Gene, Immune system and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. His Virus research incorporates elements of Cell culture, Glycoprotein and Cellular immunity.

His Simian immunodeficiency virus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Attenuated vaccine, Viral envelope, Viral load and Vaccination. His Immunology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cytotoxic T cell, HIV vaccine and Disease. His studies in Viral replication integrate themes in fields like Molecular biology and Lentivirus.

His most cited work include:

  • Importance of the nef gene for maintenance of high virus loads and for development of AIDS. (1441 citations)
  • Gastrointestinal Tract as a Major Site of CD4+ T Cell Depletion and Viral Replication in SIV Infection (1263 citations)
  • Protective effects of a live attenuated SIV vaccine with a deletion in the nef gene. (959 citations)

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

Virology, Virus, Simian immunodeficiency virus, Immunology and Antibody are his primary areas of study. Ronald C. Desrosiers interconnects Molecular biology, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Immune system in the investigation of issues within Virology. The Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as RNA, DNA, Transfection, Peptide sequence and Messenger RNA.

His Virus course of study focuses on Gene and Rhadinovirus. His research on Simian immunodeficiency virus also deals with topics like

  • Epitope together with Viral envelope,
  • Glycosylation most often made with reference to Glycoprotein. His work in Immunology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Cytotoxic T cell.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (81.73%)
  • Virus (50.51%)
  • Simian immunodeficiency virus (48.22%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Virology (81.73%)
  • Virus (50.51%)
  • Antibody (20.56%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Virus, Antibody, Simian immunodeficiency virus and Rhadinovirus. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Immune system, Immunology and Vector. His work carried out in the field of Virus brings together such families of science as Effector functions and Recombinant DNA.

He has included themes like Zika virus, Adeno-associated virus and Vaccination in his Antibody study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Gp41, CD8, Glycoprotein, Spleen and Viral replication in addition to Simian immunodeficiency virus. His Rhadinovirus research integrates issues from Genome, DNA, Glycoprotein complex, Receptor and Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • AAV-expressed eCD4-Ig provides durable protection from multiple SHIV challenges (203 citations)
  • AAV-expressed eCD4-Ig provides durable protection from multiple SHIV challenges (203 citations)
  • Global CNS transduction of adult mice by intravenously delivered rAAVrh.8 and rAAVrh.10 and nonhuman primates by rAAVrh.10. (131 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virus, Virology, Antibody, Simian immunodeficiency virus and Glycoprotein. He has researched Virus in several fields, including Conserved sequence, Mutant and Immune system. His study brings together the fields of Gp41 and Virology.

His Antibody study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Adeno-associated virus and Glycan. His Simian immunodeficiency virus research includes elements of Vector, Cytoplasm, Viral replication and Viral matrix protein. His Glycoprotein research integrates issues from Plasma protein binding, HIV vaccine, Glycosylation, Antigen and HEK 293 cells.
