Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • DNA

Adam Butler spends much of his time researching Genetics, Cancer, Mutation, Kataegis and Germline mutation. His study in Genetics concentrates on DNA Mutational Analysis, Somatic evolution in cancer, Exome, Genetic heterogeneity and Exome sequencing. The various areas that Adam Butler examines in his Cancer study include Myeloid, Enasidenib and Midostaurin.

His Mutation study is related to the wider topic of Gene. His work focuses on many connections between Kataegis and other disciplines, such as Point mutation, that overlap with his field of interest in Cancer development, Sequence, Chromothripsis and Gene rearrangement. His work carried out in the field of Germline mutation brings together such families of science as Genome and Human genome.

His most cited work include:

  • Signatures of mutational processes in human cancer (5372 citations)
  • Intratumor heterogeneity and branched evolution revealed by multiregion sequencing. (5361 citations)
  • Patterns of somatic mutation in human cancer genomes (2497 citations)

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

Genetics, Mutation, Gene, Cancer and Genome are his primary areas of study. His study in Human genome, Germline mutation, Carcinogenesis, DNA Mutational Analysis and Exome are all subfields of Genetics. Adam Butler focuses mostly in the field of Mutation, narrowing it down to topics relating to Histone H3 and, in certain cases, SETD2.

His Cancer study incorporates themes from Cancer research, Kataegis and Point mutation. His studies examine the connections between Cancer research and genetics, as well as such issues in Exome sequencing, with regards to Malignancy and Genetic heterogeneity. His study in Genome is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genetic variation, Indel, DNA, Mutation rate and Computational biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (68.29%)
  • Mutation (35.37%)
  • Gene (34.15%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2019)?

  • Genetics (68.29%)
  • Gene (34.15%)
  • Genome (26.83%)

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

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Gene, Genome, Computational biology and Cancer. Many of his research projects under Genetics are closely connected to Context with Context, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His work on DNA Mutational Analysis is typically connected to PTEN as part of general Mutation study, connecting several disciplines of science.

As a part of the same scientific family, Adam Butler mostly works in the field of Gene, focusing on Cancer research and, on occasion, Chondroblastoma, Developmental biology, H3F3B and Chordoma. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Somatic cell, Mutation rate and Indel. His Cancer study combines topics in areas such as Leukemia and Bioinformatics.

Between 2013 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Genomic Classification and Prognosis in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (1566 citations)
  • Landscape of somatic mutations in 560 breast cancer whole-genome sequences (1082 citations)
  • Heterogeneity of genomic evolution and mutational profiles in multiple myeloma (532 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • DNA

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Genome, Mutation, Exome and Gene. While working on this project, Adam Butler studies both Genetics and Recombination signal sequences. His Genome research incorporates themes from Breast cancer, Internal medicine, Genetic variation and Oncology.

He has researched Mutation in several fields, including Carcinogenesis, Cancer and Genomics. His Exome research includes themes of Personal genomics, Whole genome sequencing, Mutation and Deep sequencing. His work on Human genome and Sequence analysis as part of general Gene research is frequently linked to Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and VJ recombination, bridging the gap between disciplines.
