Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Disease
  • Statistics
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Immunology, Epidemiology, Disease, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Virology. The Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Transmission and Basic reproduction number. His studies in Basic reproduction number integrate themes in fields like Communicable disease transmission and Microparasite.

His Epidemiology research includes elements of Bovine spongiform encephalopathy and Incidence. His Contact tracing study in the realm of Disease connects with subjects such as Incubation period. His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Developing country, Population growth, Behavior change and Environmental health.

His most cited work include:

  • Infectious Diseases of Humans: Dynamics and Control (6980 citations)
  • Population biology of infectious diseases: Part II (2274 citations)
  • How will country-based mitigation measures influence the course of the COVID-19 epidemic? (1441 citations)

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

Roy M. Anderson mainly focuses on Immunology, Environmental health, Epidemiology, Disease and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. His Immunology study is mostly concerned with Vaccination, Immune system, Helminthiasis, Immunity and Herd immunity. He interconnects Sanitation, Deworming, Ascaris lumbricoides, Public health and Mass drug administration in the investigation of issues within Environmental health.

The various areas that Roy M. Anderson examines in his Epidemiology study include Transmission, Virology, Bovine spongiform encephalopathy and Incidence. Roy M. Anderson integrates Disease with Incubation period in his research. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Developing country and Population growth.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (22.40%)
  • Environmental health (23.80%)
  • Epidemiology (19.20%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Environmental health (23.80%)
  • Mass drug administration (13.40%)
  • Ascaris lumbricoides (9.20%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental health, Mass drug administration, Ascaris lumbricoides, Deworming and Neglected tropical diseases. His research in Environmental health intersects with topics in Sanitation, Epidemiology, Transmission, Public health and Schistosomiasis. His research ties Disease and Epidemiology together.

His Mass drug administration research includes themes of Parasitology, Soil-transmitted helminth, Helminths, Schistosoma mansoni and Helminthiasis. His Neglected tropical diseases study which covers Statistics that intersects with Positive predicative value. His Hookworm Infections research is included under the broader classification of Immunology.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • How will country-based mitigation measures influence the course of the COVID-19 epidemic? (1441 citations)
  • Why do so many clinical trials of therapies for Alzheimer's disease fail? (90 citations)
  • Challenges in creating herd immunity to SARS-CoV-2 infection by mass vaccination. (80 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Disease
  • Internal medicine

Roy M. Anderson mainly focuses on Environmental health, Mass drug administration, Ascaris lumbricoides, Deworming and Epidemiology. The concepts of his Environmental health study are interwoven with issues in Sanitation and Public health. His Mass drug administration study incorporates themes from Parasitology, Neglected tropical diseases, Helminths, Vaccination and Helminthiasis.

His Parasitology study combines topics in areas such as Immunology, Range, Socioeconomic status and Schistosoma mansoni. As part of his studies on Immunology, Roy M. Anderson frequently links adjacent subjects like Stochastic modelling. His studies examine the connections between Epidemiology and genetics, as well as such issues in Psychological intervention, with regards to Epidemiological Monitoring and Transmission.
