Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Immunology, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Tuberculosis, Immune system and Microbiology. His studies in T cell, Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Cytokine, Immunity and Asthma are all subfields of Immunology research. His Tumor necrosis factor alpha study incorporates themes from Necrosis, Granuloma and Chemokine.

Warwick J. Britton combines subjects such as BCG vaccine, CD8 and Virology with his study of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. His work carried out in the field of Virology brings together such families of science as Tuberculosis vaccines and Antigen. His Tuberculosis research incorporates themes from Cellular immunity, Contact tracing, Gene and Interferon gamma.

His most cited work include:

  • Rapid Effector Function in CD8+ Memory T Cells (648 citations)
  • TNF Regulates Chemokine Induction Essential for Cell Recruitment, Granuloma Formation, and Clearance of Mycobacterial Infection (598 citations)
  • Structural deficiencies in granuloma formation in TNF gene-targeted mice underlie the heightened susceptibility to aerosol Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, which is not compensated for by lymphotoxin. (567 citations)

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

Warwick J. Britton mainly focuses on Immunology, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Tuberculosis, Microbiology and Virology. His research in Mycobacterium tuberculosis intersects with topics in BCG vaccine, Vaccination and Interferon gamma. His Tuberculosis research includes themes of Environmental health, Randomized controlled trial, CD8, Contact tracing and Disease.

In his work, Monoclonal antibody, Molecular biology and Peptide sequence is strongly intertwined with Mycobacterium leprae, which is a subfield of Microbiology. While the research belongs to areas of Virology, he spends his time largely on the problem of Antigen, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Antibody. In his study, Necrosis is strongly linked to Tumor necrosis factor alpha, which falls under the umbrella field of Cytokine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (70.94%)
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis (62.93%)
  • Tuberculosis (54.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Tuberculosis (54.23%)
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis (62.93%)
  • Immunology (70.94%)

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

Warwick J. Britton mainly investigates Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Immunology, Immune system and Cell biology. Specifically, his work in Tuberculosis is concerned with the study of BCG vaccine. His studies in Mycobacterium tuberculosis integrate themes in fields like Phagocyte, Virulence, Microbiology and Vaccination.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Granuloma, Transdifferentiation and In vivo. Warwick J. Britton has included themes like Platelet, Yolk and Antigen in his Immune system study. The concepts of his Antigen study are interwoven with issues in Heterologous vaccine and Antibody.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • CD103+ Tumor-Resident CD8+ T Cells Are Associated with Improved Survival in Immunotherapy-Naïve Melanoma Patients and Expand Significantly During Anti–PD-1 Treatment (109 citations)
  • Household-Contact Investigation for Detection of Tuberculosis in Vietnam (86 citations)
  • Animal and translational models of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19. (43 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Enzyme

Warwick J. Britton focuses on Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Disease, Randomized controlled trial and Immunology. Warwick J. Britton has researched Tuberculosis in several fields, including Regimen, Internal medicine, Contact tracing and Parenchyma. The Mycobacterium tuberculosis study combines topics in areas such as Cell signaling, Signal transduction, Intracellular parasite and Mutation, Mutagenesis.

His Disease research includes elements of Clinical trial, Cohort and Intensive care medicine. His Randomized controlled trial research integrates issues from Young adult, MEDLINE and Environmental health. The various areas that he examines in his Immunology study include Aspirin and Lung.
