Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Bacteria

Volker Brinkmann mainly focuses on Cell biology, Neutrophil extracellular traps, Immunology, Extracellular Traps and Microbiology. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Cadherin, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. Volker Brinkmann integrates Neutrophil extracellular traps with Histone citrullination in his study.

His Immunology research focuses on subjects like Tissue factor, which are linked to Neutrophil elastase. His studies in Extracellular Traps integrate themes in fields like Extracellular, Programmed cell death and Immunity. Gram-negative bacteria, Bacteria, Phagosome and Helicobacter pylori is closely connected to Virulence in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Microbiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Neutrophil extracellular traps kill bacteria (5149 citations)
  • Novel cell death program leads to neutrophil extracellular traps (1935 citations)
  • SCATTER FACTOR/HEPATOCYTE GROWTH FACTOR IS ESSENTIAL FOR LIVER DEVELOPMENT (1280 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Immunology, Microbiology, Neutrophil extracellular traps and Immune system. His study looks at the relationship between Cell biology and topics such as Plasmodium berghei, which overlap with Heat shock protein. His Microbiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Bacteria, CagA, Virulence and Helicobacter pylori.

When carried out as part of a general Neutrophil extracellular traps research project, his work on Extracellular Traps is frequently linked to work in Histone citrullination, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Immune system study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Tuberculosis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Volker Brinkmann focuses mostly in the field of T cell, narrowing it down to topics relating to Antigen and, in certain cases, Antigen presentation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (36.14%)
  • Immunology (28.31%)
  • Microbiology (22.89%)

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

  • Cell biology (36.14%)
  • Neutrophil extracellular traps (13.25%)
  • Immunology (28.31%)

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

His main research concerns Cell biology, Neutrophil extracellular traps, Immunology, Virulence and Inflammation. Volker Brinkmann interconnects Metaplasia and Compartment in the investigation of issues within Cell biology. His Neutrophil extracellular traps research incorporates themes from Cytoplasm, Granulocyte, Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1, Innate immune system and Antibody.

His work investigates the relationship between Innate immune system and topics such as Secretion that intersect with problems in Microbiology. While the research belongs to areas of Virulence, Volker Brinkmann spends his time largely on the problem of Vector, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Host. He combines subjects such as Fibrosis and Extracellular Traps with his study of Cytokine.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in the Second Decade. (81 citations)
  • Non-competitive resource exploitation within mosquito shapes within-host malaria infectivity and virulence (34 citations)
  • Chronic Chlamydia infection in human organoids increases stemness and promotes age-dependent CpG methylation. (30 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Bacteria

Volker Brinkmann mostly deals with Neutrophil extracellular traps, Cell biology, Innate immune system, Virulence and Genetics. His Neutrophil extracellular traps study is concerned with the field of Inflammation as a whole. His Cell biology study frequently links to related topics such as BECN1.

Volker Brinkmann works on Innate immune system which deals in particular with Extracellular Traps. His research in Virulence intersects with topics in Malaria, Parasitic disease, Plasmodium, Host and Infectivity. His work focuses on many connections between Pathogenesis and other disciplines, such as Fibrosis, that overlap with his field of interest in Immunology.
