Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Bacteria

Microbiology, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Pneumococcal infections, Immunology and Virology are her primary areas of study. Her studies deal with areas such as Humoral immunity, Antibody, Antigen, Wild type and Bacterial adhesin as well as Microbiology. Her Streptococcus pneumoniae study incorporates themes from Lactoferrin, Streptococcaceae, Immunization and Virulence.

Her Pneumococcal infections research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Protein A, Virulence factor, Complement system and Vaccination. Her study in Immunology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pneumococcal pneumonia and Otitis. Her work carried out in the field of Virology brings together such families of science as Genetics, Homologous chromosome, Cholera toxin and Homology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Diversity of PspA: Mosaic Genes and Evidence for Past Recombination in Streptococcus pneumoniae (292 citations)
  • Intranasal immunization of mice with a mixture of the pneumococcal proteins PsaA and PspA is highly protective against nasopharyngeal carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae. (285 citations)
  • Complete nucleotide sequence of type 6 M protein of the group A Streptococcus. Repetitive structure and membrane anchor. (273 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Immunology, Pneumococcal infections and Virology. Her Microbiology research incorporates elements of Genetics, Antigen, Gene, Antibody and Virulence. Her research in Antibody intersects with topics in Recombinant DNA and Pneumococcal surface protein A.

The Streptococcus pneumoniae study combines topics in areas such as Virulence factor, Serotype, Immunity and Streptococcaceae. The Pneumococcal infections study which covers Pneumococcal vaccine that intersects with Polyvalent Vaccine. Her Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Epitope, Bacterial adhesin, Typing and Polymerase chain reaction.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (61.11%)
  • Streptococcus pneumoniae (55.56%)
  • Immunology (29.86%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2009-2016)?

  • Streptococcus pneumoniae (55.56%)
  • Microbiology (61.11%)
  • Immunology (29.86%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Streptococcus pneumoniae, Microbiology, Immunology, Antibody and Virology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Serotype, Gene, Allele and Immunity in addition to Streptococcus pneumoniae. The various areas that Susan K. Hollingshead examines in her Serotype study include Genetics and Locus.

Her studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Epitope and Antigen. Many of her research projects under Immunology are closely connected to Nasal cavity with Nasal cavity, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. As a member of one scientific family, Susan K. Hollingshead mostly works in the field of Antibody, focusing on Immune system and, on occasion, Streptococcus, Transfection, Nucleic acid, Peptide sequence and Bacterial adhesin.

Between 2009 and 2016, her most popular works were:

  • The Proline-Rich Region of Pneumococcal Surface Proteins A and C Contains Surface-Accessible Epitopes Common to All Pneumococci and Elicits Antibody-Mediated Protection against Sepsis (78 citations)
  • Secretory-IgA Antibodies Play an Important Role in the Immunity to Streptococcus pneumoniae (73 citations)
  • Commensal Streptococci Serve as a Reservoir for β-Lactam Resistance Genes in Streptococcus pneumoniae (50 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Bacteria

Her primary areas of study are Streptococcus pneumoniae, Microbiology, Immunology, Antibody and Immunity. Her Streptococcus pneumoniae study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Penicillin, Antibiotic resistance and Gene, Homologous recombination. Susan K. Hollingshead applies her multidisciplinary studies on Microbiology and Meningitis in her research.

When carried out as part of a general Immunology research project, her work on Immunoglobulin A, Nasal administration, Adjuvant and Tetanus is frequently linked to work in Nasal cavity, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Susan K. Hollingshead interconnects Complementary DNA, Bacteria and Pneumococcal infections in the investigation of issues within Antibody. Her Immunity research includes themes of Epitope, Recombinant DNA, Monoclonal antibody and Virology.
