Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Plasmodium falciparum, Antigen, Virology, KAHRP and Red blood cell. His research in Plasmodium falciparum intersects with topics in Genetics, Protozoa, Microbiology, CD36 and Biochemistry. He has researched Antigen in several fields, including Molecular biology and Antibody.

His Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Amino acid, Sodium dodecyl sulfate and Trypsin. His work in Antibody addresses subjects such as Pregnancy-associated malaria, which are connected to disciplines such as Recombinant DNA, Direct agglutination test and Immunity. The concepts of his Virology study are interwoven with issues in Cerebral Malaria and Immune system, Malaria, Immunology.

His most cited work include:

  • Cloning the P. falciparum gene encoding PfEMP1, a malarial variant antigen and adherence receptor on the surface of parasitized human erythrocytes (903 citations)
  • Applications of DNA shuffling to pharmaceuticals and vaccines. (420 citations)
  • Identification of a strain-specific malarial antigen exposed on the surface of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes. (368 citations)

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

Russell J. Howard focuses on Plasmodium falciparum, Antigen, Molecular biology, Virology and Biochemistry. His Plasmodium falciparum research incorporates elements of Genetics, In vitro, Protozoa, Red blood cell and CD36. His Antigen study combines topics in areas such as Antibody and Plasmodium knowlesi.

His work deals with themes such as Plasmodium gallinaceum, Trypsin and Pregnancy-associated malaria, which intersect with Antibody. The Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as KAHRP, Membrane protein, Monoclonal antibody and Immunoprecipitation. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell and Immunology, Malaria, Immune system.

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1993-2017)?

  • Virology (35.20%)
  • Antigen (39.20%)
  • Plasmodium falciparum (54.40%)

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

Virology, Antigen, Plasmodium falciparum, Immunology and CD36 are his primary areas of study. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cell, Nucleic acid, Malaria, Plasmodium and Monoclonal antibody. His Antigen study incorporates themes from Molecular biology and Immune system.

Russell J. Howard works mostly in the field of Molecular biology, limiting it down to topics relating to Gene and, in certain cases, Immunofluorescence. His Plasmodium falciparum study often links to related topics such as Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Cerebral Malaria, Red blood cell, Cell adhesion molecule and KAHRP as well as CD36.

Between 1993 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Cloning the P. falciparum gene encoding PfEMP1, a malarial variant antigen and adherence receptor on the surface of parasitized human erythrocytes (903 citations)
  • Applications of DNA shuffling to pharmaceuticals and vaccines. (420 citations)
  • Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 is a parasitized erythrocyte receptor for adherence to CD36, thrombospondin, and intercellular adhesion molecule 1. (351 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of investigation include Antigen, CD36, Immune system, Virology and DNA shuffling. His research in CD36 intersects with topics in Plasmodium falciparum and KAHRP. His Plasmodium falciparum research includes elements of Peptide sequence, Conserved sequence, Sequence alignment, Binding domain and Microbiology.

His Immune system research includes themes of Cancer, Computational biology and Allergy. His study in Virology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Vector and Cell. His Gene research incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Antibody and Pregnancy-associated malaria.
