Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Adaptation, Biological evolution and Genetics. The Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Covariance, Biological dispersal and Selection. His work on Ecology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Pathogen.

His Adaptation study combines topics in areas such as Evolutionary ecology, Evolutionary dynamics, Trophic level, Conservation biology and Phenotypic plasticity. His Biological evolution research includes elements of Parasite transmission, Demography, Evolutionary theory and Virulence. His work in the fields of Genetics, such as Inheritance, Epigenetics and Intralocus sexual conflict, overlaps with other areas such as Empirical data.

His most cited work include:

  • Nongenetic Inheritance and Its Evolutionary Implications (403 citations)
  • A Biologist's Guide to Mathematical Modeling in Ecology and Evolution (324 citations)
  • Population structure attributable to reproductive time: isolation by time and adaptation by time. (309 citations)

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

Troy Day mostly deals with Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Genetics, Virulence and Pathogen. His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary biology brings together such families of science as Adaptation, Heredity and Selection. His study in Selection is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fitness landscape and Mutation.

His Life history and Competition study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Context, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study in Genetics focuses on Epigenetics and Inheritance. His Virulence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Host and Immunology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Evolutionary biology (31.89%)
  • Ecology (21.08%)
  • Genetics (15.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (31.89%)
  • Heredity (3.24%)
  • Infectious disease (5.41%)

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

Evolutionary biology, Heredity, Infectious disease, Epidemiology and Livestock are his primary areas of study. His work on Sexual selection as part of general Evolutionary biology study is frequently linked to Inheritance, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Infectious disease research incorporates themes from Pathogen, Risk analysis, Outbreak and Virulence.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Biological evolution, Empiricism, Evolutionary medicine, Adaptive evolution and Data science in addition to Virulence. His Livestock research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Disease Eradication, Cohort size, Cohort and Environmental health. Ecology covers he research in Sexual conflict.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The adaptive evolution of virulence: a review of theoretical predictions and empirical tests (140 citations)
  • Does High-Dose Antimicrobial Chemotherapy Prevent the Evolution of Resistance? (93 citations)
  • Does High-Dose Antimicrobial Chemotherapy Prevent the Evolution of Resistance? (93 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Infectious disease, Genetics, Literature study, Resistance and Antibiotic resistance. His Infectious disease research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary dynamics, Risk analysis, Outbreak and Environmental health. He undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Genetics and Large array in his work.

His Resistance research incorporates themes from Empirical research, Drug resistance and Pharmacology, Effective dose. His Drug resistance study combines topics in areas such as Resource and Malaria. He incorporates a variety of subjects into his writings, including Antibiotic resistance, Intensive care medicine, Antimicrobial chemotherapy, Drug, Competition and Host.
