Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Serap Aksoy focuses on Wigglesworthia, Wigglesworthia glossinidia, Sodalis glossinidius, Sodalis and Genetics. The various areas that she examines in her Wigglesworthia study include Zoology, Tsetse fly, Obligate and Microbiology. Her Wigglesworthia glossinidia research focuses on subjects like Ecology, which are linked to Symbiosis.

Her Sodalis glossinidius research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Buchnera, Wolbachia and Botany. Her Genetics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Trypanosomiasis and African trypanosomiasis. Her Host research integrates issues from Vector and Virology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genome sequence of the endocellular obligate symbiont of tsetse flies, Wigglesworthia glossinidia. (497 citations)
  • Massive genome erosion and functional adaptations provide insights into the symbiotic lifestyle of Sodalis glossinidius in the tsetse host (268 citations)
  • Prevention of insect-borne disease: An approach using transgenic symbiotic bacteria (257 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Tsetse fly, Genetics, Wigglesworthia, Zoology and Ecology. The Tsetse fly study combines topics in areas such as Vector, Immune system, African trypanosomiasis, Trypanosoma and Midgut. Her study in Wigglesworthia is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Obligate, Microbiome, Aposymbiotic and Wigglesworthia glossinidia.

Serap Aksoy combines subjects such as Wolbachia, Botany and Sodalis glossinidius with her study of Wigglesworthia glossinidia. The study incorporates disciplines such as Symbiotic bacteria, Sodalis and Microbiology in addition to Sodalis glossinidius. Serap Aksoy has included themes like Reproductive biology, Phylogenetics and Reproduction in her Zoology study.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Tsetse fly (30.09%)
  • Genetics (23.45%)
  • Wigglesworthia (20.35%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Tsetse fly (30.09%)
  • Vector (15.49%)
  • Trypanosoma (15.93%)

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

Serap Aksoy spends much of her time researching Tsetse fly, Vector, Trypanosoma, Zoology and Microbiology. Her Tsetse fly study improves the overall literature in Ecology. Her Vector research incorporates themes from Transmission, African trypanosomiasis, Host and Habitat.

Her Trypanosoma study combines topics in areas such as Trypanosomiasis and Midgut. Serap Aksoy interconnects Obligate, Wigglesworthia and Reproductive success in the investigation of issues within Zoology. Her Wigglesworthia study incorporates themes from Infectivity and Parasitism.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Comparative genomic analysis of six Glossina genomes, vectors of African trypanosomes (29 citations)
  • What constitutes a neglected tropical disease (19 citations)
  • A fine-tuned vector-parasite dialogue in tsetse's cardia determines peritrophic matrix integrity and trypanosome transmission success. (16 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Her primary areas of investigation include Tsetse fly, Trypanosoma, Vector, Zoology and Midgut. Her studies in Trypanosoma integrate themes in fields like Transport protein and Gene expression profiling. Serap Aksoy has included themes like Wolbachia, Horizontal transmission, African trypanosomiasis and Peritrophic matrix in her Vector study.

Her Zoology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Wigglesworthia. Her Wigglesworthia research incorporates elements of Arthropod Vector, Infectivity, Obligate, Sodalis and Parasitism. Her research integrates issues of Pathogen, Microbiology, Trypanosomiasis, Trypanosoma brucei and Serratia infection in her study of Midgut.
