Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Virus

Thomas Leitner focuses on Genetics, Virology, Phylogenetic tree, Virus and Gene. His Genetics study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Zoology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Aids pandemic, Computational biology, Identification and African origin in addition to Zoology.

His studies deal with areas such as Pyrosequencing, Molecular epidemiology and Drug resistance as well as Virology. His Phylogenetic tree research incorporates themes from Gene pool, Phylogenetics, Genetic variation and Haplotype. His Virus study contributes to a more complete understanding of Immunology.

His most cited work include:

  • HIV-1 Nomenclature Proposal (782 citations)
  • Genetic Evidence for an East Asian Origin of Domestic Dogs (741 citations)
  • Prevalence of Drug-Resistant HIV-1 Variants in Untreated Individuals in Europe: Implications for Clinical Management (389 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Genetics, Phylogenetic tree, Virus and Phylogenetics. His Virology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Molecular epidemiology, Gene and Immunology. His study looks at the intersection of Phylogenetic tree and topics like Genome with Recombinant DNA.

His Virus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phenotype, Epitope, V3 loop, Genotype and Drug resistance. His Phylogenetics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Evolutionary biology, Tree and Recombination. His Sequence course of study focuses on Computational biology and Compendium and Markov chain.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (43.92%)
  • Genetics (30.41%)
  • Phylogenetic tree (28.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Phylogenetic tree (28.38%)
  • Phylogenetics (16.22%)
  • Genetics (30.41%)

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

Thomas Leitner mainly investigates Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Genetics, Evolutionary biology and Transmission. His study in Phylogenetic tree is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Inference, Recombination and Virology. He works in the field of Virology, namely Immunodeficiency virus.

Thomas Leitner combines subjects such as Neutral theory of molecular evolution and False discovery rate with his study of Phylogenetics. His study connects Virus and Evolutionary biology. His studies examine the connections between DNA sequencing and genetics, as well as such issues in Primer dimer, with regards to Computational biology.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Global and regional molecular epidemiology of HIV-1, 1990–2015: a systematic review, global survey, and trend analysis (86 citations)
  • Timing and Order of Transmission Events Is Not Directly Reflected in a Pathogen Phylogeny (69 citations)
  • Phylogenetically resolving epidemiologic linkage (67 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Virus

Thomas Leitner mostly deals with Computational biology, Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Transmission and Genetics. His Computational biology research incorporates elements of Nomenclature, Virology, Species level, Immunodeficiency virus and Compendium. His work deals with themes such as Phylogenetic network and Coalescent theory, which intersect with Evolutionary biology.

His Phylogenetics research includes themes of Inference and Sequence. Among his Transmission studies, you can observe a synthesis of other disciplines of science such as Phylogenetic tree and Linkage. His Phylogenetic tree study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Sample size determination.
