This Research Front on Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus from the field of Microbiology as selected for mapping from the list of Fast Moving Fronts for May 2004 (data from the sixth bimonthly of 2003). The map is a diagrammatic representation of the fourteen core papers comprising the front. Each circle represents a highly cited paper whose bibliographic information is displayed when the user clicks on the circle. The lines between circles represent the strongest co-citation links for each paper (that is, indicating that the papers are frequently cited together). Papers close to each other on the map are generally more highly co-cited.
Emerging Research Fronts Comments
Brian G. Spratt talks about his highly cited paper, "Multilocus sequence typing for characterization of methicillin-resistant and methicillin-susceptible clones of Staphylococcus aureus," (J CLIN MICROBIOL, 38: (3) 1008-1015, MAR 2000) which is this month's emerging research front in microbiology. This paper is also represented in the map below.
