In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Tom Wenseleers mainly focuses on Zoology, Evolutionary biology, Vespula vulgaris, Sex pheromone and Insect.
His study in the field of Hymenoptera also crosses realms of Division of labour.
His work deals with themes such as Gene, Allele and Kinship, which intersect with Evolutionary biology.
The Sex pheromone study which covers Queen that intersects with Communication, Ovary and Queen mandibular pheromone.
The various areas that Tom Wenseleers examines in his Insect study include Symbiosis, Honeydew and Acromyrmex echinatior.
His Effective population size study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Ecology.

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His main research concerns Insect, Zoology, Queen mandibular pheromone, Sex pheromone and Evolutionary biology.
Insect is the subject of his research, which falls under Botany.
His work in the fields of Paper wasp overlaps with other areas such as Metapleural gland.
His Queen mandibular pheromone research includes themes of Queen and Ovary.
Tom Wenseleers interconnects Pheromone, Dominance, Eusociality, Queen and Reproduction in the investigation of issues within Sex pheromone.
His Evolutionary biology research includes elements of Phylogeography, Phylogenetics, Species complex and Reproductive isolation.
