Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • DNA

William H. Benjamin mainly focuses on Microbiology, Immunology, Virulence, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Salmonella. His Microbiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pyuria, Immune system, Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus, Antibody and Organ transplantation. His research in Immunology intersects with topics in Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Fluoroquinolone resistance and Pneumococcal infections.

His study looks at the relationship between Virulence and fields such as Mutation, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His work in Streptococcus pneumoniae tackles topics such as Pneumonia which are related to areas like Pneumolysin, Immunization and Pneumococcal pneumonia. His Salmonella study incorporates themes from Spleen and Enterobacteriaceae.

His most cited work include:

  • Human intestinal macrophages display profound inflammatory anergy despite avid phagocytic and bacteriocidal activity (662 citations)
  • Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for quantitation of human antibodies to pneumococcal polysaccharides. (284 citations)
  • Immunizations with Pneumococcal Surface Protein A and Pneumolysin Are Protective against Pneumonia in a Murine Model of Pulmonary Infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae (223 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Microbiology, Immunology, Salmonella, Virology and Streptococcus pneumoniae. His study in Microbiology focuses on Pneumococcal infections in particular. His Immunology research integrates issues from Streptococcus and Tuberculosis.

His Salmonella research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Intracellular, Intracellular parasite and Pathogenesis. His research in Virology focuses on subjects like Multiplex, which are connected to Immunoassay. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Antibacterial agent under Streptococcus pneumoniae, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Penicillin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (52.43%)
  • Immunology (29.13%)
  • Salmonella (17.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2017)?

  • Microbiology (52.43%)
  • Immunology (29.13%)
  • Streptococcus agalactiae (5.83%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Immunology, Streptococcus agalactiae, Urinary system and Streptococcus. His work in the fields of Microbiology, such as Clostridium difficile, overlaps with other areas such as Vaccine Potency. His work on Cryoglobulins as part of his general Immunology study is frequently connected to Cryoglobulin test, Cryoglobulin and Sample temperature, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His Streptococcus agalactiae research focuses on Gene and how it connects with Catabolism and Urine. He has researched Urinary system in several fields, including Asymptomatic, Group B and Etiology. His research investigates the link between Streptococcus and topics such as Pathogen that cross with problems in Microarray analysis techniques.

Between 2011 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Evaluations of deep convolutional neural networks for automatic identification of malaria infected cells (65 citations)
  • Loss of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus Fecal Dominance in an Organ Transplant Patient With Clostridium difficile Colitis After Fecal Microbiota Transplant (62 citations)
  • Asymptomatic bacteriuria: prevalence rates of causal microorganisms, etiology of infection in different patient populations, and recent advances in molecular detection (57 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Immunology, Clostridium Difficile Colitis, Organ transplantation and Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus. He mostly deals with Pathogen in his studies of Microbiology. His Immunology research incorporates themes from Urinary system, Asymptomatic bacteriuria, Asymptomatic, Prevalence and Etiology.

William H. Benjamin interconnects Microbiome, Enterococcus, Transplantation and Pseudomembranous colitis in the investigation of issues within Clostridium Difficile Colitis.
