Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

Stephan Günther spends much of his time researching Virology, Virus, Ebola virus, Immunology and Ebolavirus. His Virology study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Genome. His work on Usutu virus is typically connected to Human metapneumovirus as part of general Virus study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His work on Ebola vaccine as part of general Ebola virus research is frequently linked to Sierra leone, bridging the gap between disciplines. Stephan Günther has included themes like Internal medicine, Randomized controlled trial and Disease in his Immunology study. His study looks at the intersection of Ebolavirus and topics like Case fatality rate with ZMapp, Zoonosis, Viral hemorrhagic fever and Disease reservoir.

His most cited work include:

  • Identification of a novel coronavirus in patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome. (3175 citations)
  • Characterization of a novel coronavirus associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome (2031 citations)
  • Emergence of Zaire Ebola Virus Disease in Guinea (1048 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Virus, Lassa virus, Lassa fever and Ebola virus. His Virology study incorporates themes from Genome and Immunology. As part of the same scientific family, Stephan Günther usually focuses on Virus, concentrating on Molecular biology and intersecting with RNA.

His work carried out in the field of Lassa virus brings together such families of science as Mastomys, Arenavirus, Nucleoprotein and Seroprevalence. His work deals with themes such as Case fatality rate, Ribavirin and Pediatrics, which intersect with Lassa fever. The subject of his Ebola virus research is within the realm of Disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (68.83%)
  • Virus (35.39%)
  • Lassa virus (24.03%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Virology (68.83%)
  • Lassa fever (22.08%)
  • Virus (35.39%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Lassa fever, Virus, Lassa virus and Ebola virus. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genome, Bunyavirales, Taxonomy, Antibody and Transcription. The study incorporates disciplines such as Observational study, Ribavirin and Pediatrics in addition to Lassa fever.

Stephan Günther interconnects Zoology, Arenavirus and Viral hemorrhagic fever in the investigation of issues within Lassa virus. His studies deal with areas such as Adverse effect, Clinical trial and Vaccination as well as Ebola virus. Stephan Günther combines subjects such as Transmission and Case fatality rate with his study of Outbreak.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Taxonomy of the order Bunyavirales : update 2019 (106 citations)
  • Metagenomic sequencing at the epicenter of the Nigeria 2018 Lassa fever outbreak. (106 citations)
  • Taxonomy of the order Bunyavirales : second update 2018 (65 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

His main research concerns Virology, Lassa fever, Lassa virus, Bunyavirales and Taxonomy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Rodent, Transcription and Family Arenaviridae. His work in Family Arenaviridae covers topics such as Reptarenavirus which are related to areas like Genome.

His Lassa fever study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biological dispersal, Ribavirin, Lineage and Hylomyscus. His Lassa virus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Arenavirus, Nucleoprotein and Glycoprotein. His study looks at the relationship between Bunyavirales and fields such as Taxon, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
