Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

His main research concerns Ecology, Trout, Microbiology, Veterinary medicine and Brown trout. His Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Fish farming, Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae and Disease. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Microbiology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Aeromonas salmonicida, and often Virulence, Secretion, Type three secretion system, Mutant and Aeromonas.

In his study, Gross examination, Grayling, Aquatic animal and Kidney disease is strongly linked to Rainbow trout, which falls under the umbrella field of Veterinary medicine. His Brown trout study is concerned with Salmo in general. His Salmo research includes elements of Fish health, Zoology and Gill.

His most cited work include:

  • Histopathology in fish: proposal for a protocol to assess aquatic pollution (702 citations)
  • Life cycle complexity, environmental change and the emerging status of salmonid proliferative kidney disease (119 citations)
  • Proliferative kidney disease in Switzerland: current state of knowledge (104 citations)

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

Thomas Wahli mainly investigates Rainbow trout, Zoology, Brown trout, Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae and Salmo. His Rainbow trout study deals with Endocrinology intersecting with Vitellogenin. His study in Brown trout is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Veterinary medicine, Ecology and Fishery.

His research on Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae also deals with topics like

  • Kidney which intersects with area such as Kidney disease, Spore and Physiology,
  • Immune system which is related to area like Microbiology and Vaccination,
  • Myxozoa which intersects with area such as Histopathology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Water quality, Infection prevalence, Pollution and Animal science. His work in Trout tackles topics such as Salmonidae which are related to areas like Toxicity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Rainbow trout (28.43%)
  • Zoology (28.43%)
  • Brown trout (24.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae (20.59%)
  • Zoology (28.43%)
  • Brown trout (24.51%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, Zoology, Brown trout, Salmo and Rainbow trout. The various areas that he examines in his Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae study include Kidney and Immunology, Pathogenesis. His Zoology study also includes

  • Host that intertwine with fields like Pollution and Oomycete,
  • Rana, which have a strong connection to Mucous gland and Amphibian.

The concepts of his Brown trout study are interwoven with issues in Prevalence, Abundance and Waterborne diseases. His Salmo study combines topics in areas such as Water quality, Infection prevalence, Fishery and Cumulative effects. His study in the field of Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus is also linked to topics like Volume concentration.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Who needs the hotspot? The effect of temperature on the fish host immune response to Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae the causative agent of proliferative kidney disease. (33 citations)
  • Integrated field, laboratory, and theoretical study of PKD spread in a Swiss prealpine river. (30 citations)
  • Genomic diversity and evolution of the fish pathogen Flavobacterium psychrophilum (26 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Ecology
  • Bacteria

His primary scientific interests are in Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, Immunology, Brown trout, Rainbow trout and Immune system. His Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae study incorporates themes from Ecology and Abundance. His Brown trout study is concerned with the larger field of Salmo.

Thomas Wahli interconnects Zoology, Host, Transmission and Spore in the investigation of issues within Salmo. Thomas Wahli focuses mostly in the field of Rainbow trout, narrowing it down to topics relating to Pathogenesis and, in certain cases, Ecoimmunology and Inflammation. His Immune system research integrates issues from Pathogen and Kidney disease.
