Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Bacteria

Susanna K. P. Lau mainly focuses on Virology, Coronavirus, Genetics, Immunology and Microbiology. Her studies deal with areas such as Betacoronavirus, Genotype and Phylogenetic tree as well as Virology. Susanna K. P. Lau combines subjects such as Pneumonia, Alphacoronavirus, Severe acute respiratory syndrome, Coronaviridae and Antibody with her study of Coronavirus.

Her Pneumonia research incorporates elements of Respiratory tract infections and Human coronavirus HKU1. Her research integrates issues of Epidemiology, Cytokine storm and Disease in her study of Immunology. Her work on Bacteremia as part of general Microbiology research is frequently linked to Fungal genetics, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her most cited work include:

  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-like virus in Chinese horseshoe bats (1084 citations)
  • Characterization and Complete Genome Sequence of a Novel Coronavirus, Coronavirus HKU1, from Patients with Pneumonia (1009 citations)
  • Discovery of Seven Novel Mammalian and Avian Coronaviruses in the Genus Deltacoronavirus Supports Bat Coronaviruses as the Gene Source of Alphacoronavirus and Betacoronavirus and Avian Coronaviruses as the Gene Source of Gammacoronavirus and Deltacoronavirus (713 citations)

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

Susanna K. P. Lau mainly investigates Virology, Microbiology, Genetics, Genome and Coronavirus. Susanna K. P. Lau is studying Virus, which is a component of Virology. Her Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Penicillium marneffei, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria and Dimorphic fungus.

Her 16S ribosomal RNA research incorporates themes from Ribosomal RNA and Ribosomal DNA. Her Genetics study is mostly concerned with Phylogenetic tree, Gene, Phylogenetics, Sequence analysis and Whole genome sequencing. She has included themes like Alphacoronavirus, Human coronavirus HKU1, Middle East respiratory syndrome, Coronaviridae and Betacoronavirus in her Coronavirus study.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (36.95%)
  • Microbiology (36.95%)
  • Genetics (22.86%)

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

  • Virology (36.95%)
  • Microbiology (36.95%)
  • Virus (11.78%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Virology, Microbiology, Virus, Genome and Genetics. Her Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Coronavirus disease 2019 and Genotype, Hepatitis E virus. Her Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both In vitro, 16S ribosomal RNA and Tsukamurella.

The various areas that Susanna K. P. Lau examines in her Genome study include Outbreak, DNA sequencing and Recombinant DNA. The concepts of her Genetics study are interwoven with issues in Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, Middle East respiratory syndrome and Human coronavirus 229E. Susanna K. P. Lau works mostly in the field of Tylonycteris, limiting it down to concerns involving Coronavirus and, occasionally, Zoology.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Global Epidemiology of Bat Coronaviruses. (129 citations)
  • Molecular epidemiology, evolution and phylogeny of SARS coronavirus. (119 citations)
  • Possible Bat Origin of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2. (109 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Bacteria

Susanna K. P. Lau spends much of her time researching Virology, Virus, Genetics, Hepatitis E virus and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus. Her Virology research includes themes of Camelid, Antibody and Antigen. Her work carried out in the field of Virus brings together such families of science as Lipidome, Lipidomics, Arachidonic acid and Cross-species transmission.

In general Genetics, her work in Novel virus, Polymerase chain reaction, Candida parapsilosis and Ribosomal RNA is often linked to Fungal genetics linking many areas of study. Her Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus study incorporates themes from Lineage, Tylonycteris, Middle East respiratory syndrome, Pipistrellus and Coronavirus. Her research investigates the connection between Coronavirus and topics such as Betacoronavirus that intersect with issues in Genome, 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak and Outbreak.
