Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Antibody

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Antibody, Antigen, Cell biology and Molecular biology. He has included themes like Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium, Malaria and Circumsporozoite protein in his Virology study. Victor Nussenzweig combines subjects such as Cytotoxic T cell, Immune system and Trypsin with his study of Antibody.

His Antigen research is mostly focused on the topic Epitope. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Internalization, Apicomplexa, Cell membrane and Plasmodium berghei. His work carried out in the field of Molecular biology brings together such families of science as Immunoglobulin Fab Fragments, Receptor, Rosette and Peripheral blood.

His most cited work include:

  • A population of lymphocytes bearing a membrane receptor for antigen-antibody-complement complexes. I. Separation and characterization. (951 citations)
  • γ Interferon, CD8 + T cells and antibodies required for immunity to malaria sporozoites (590 citations)
  • RECEPTORS FOR COMPLEMENT ON LEUKOCYTES (544 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Antibody, Virology, Molecular biology, Biochemistry and Antigen. His work deals with themes such as Guinea pig and Immune system, which intersect with Antibody. His Virology research includes themes of Malaria, Circumsporozoite protein, Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium and Plasmodium berghei.

His studies deal with areas such as Anopheles, Apicomplexa and Cell biology as well as Plasmodium. The study incorporates disciplines such as Gamma globulin, Antiserum and Cell membrane in addition to Molecular biology. His Antigen research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Spleen and Plasmodium vivax.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Antibody (32.26%)
  • Virology (31.05%)
  • Molecular biology (30.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2018)?

  • Virology (31.05%)
  • Circumsporozoite protein (20.56%)
  • Plasmodium (16.53%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Circumsporozoite protein, Plasmodium, Plasmodium berghei and Plasmodium falciparum. Victor Nussenzweig has researched Virology in several fields, including Antibody, Immunology, Immunogenicity, Immunity and Plasmodium vivax. His Antibody study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as T cell, Plasmodium yoelii and Antigen.

His work carried out in the field of Circumsporozoite protein brings together such families of science as Malaria vaccine and Monoclonal antibody. His Plasmodium study combines topics in areas such as Cell, Biochemistry, Phosphorylation and Cell biology. The Cytoplasm research he does as part of his general Cell biology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Infectivity and Eukaryotic translation, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 2006 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • From the circumsporozoite protein to the RTS, S/AS candidate vaccine. (180 citations)
  • Plasmodium Circumsporozoite Protein Promotes the Development of the Liver Stages of the Parasite (173 citations)
  • Self-assembled peptide nanofibers raising durable antibody responses against a malaria epitope. (119 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Antibody

Victor Nussenzweig mainly focuses on Cell biology, Plasmodium, Plasmodium berghei, Virology and Plasmodium falciparum. His Cytoplasm study in the realm of Cell biology interacts with subjects such as Eukaryotic translation, EIF-2 kinase and Eukaryotic initiation factor. His work deals with themes such as Plasmodium yoelii and Binding site, which intersect with Plasmodium berghei.

The Virology study combines topics in areas such as Nuclear localization sequence, NLS and Antibody, Immunology. Many of his research projects under Antibody are closely connected to Antibody titer with Antibody titer, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. In his study, Plasmodium vivax is inextricably linked to Biochemistry, which falls within the broad field of Plasmodium falciparum.
