Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Alexander Meissner focuses on Genetics, DNA methylation, Epigenetics, Epigenomics and Induced pluripotent stem cell. His Genetics course of study focuses on Computational biology and Human genome. DNA methylation and Methylation are frequently intertwined in his study.

His work carried out in the field of Epigenetics brings together such families of science as Epigenesis and Histone methylation. His Epigenomics research incorporates themes from Genomic imprinting and RNA-Directed DNA Methylation. He combines subjects such as Reprogramming and Cell biology with his study of Induced pluripotent stem cell.

His most cited work include:

  • A Bivalent Chromatin Structure Marks Key Developmental Genes in Embryonic Stem Cells (4203 citations)
  • Integrative analysis of 111 reference human epigenomes (3776 citations)
  • Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in pluripotent and lineage-committed cells (3420 citations)

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

His main research concerns DNA methylation, Genetics, Cell biology, Epigenetics and Induced pluripotent stem cell. His DNA methylation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Regulation of gene expression and Methylation. His Cell biology research integrates issues from Chromatin, Embryonic stem cell, Transcription factor and Somatic cell.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cancer research, Computational biology, DNA, Methyltransferase and Genomic imprinting. His study in Induced pluripotent stem cell is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Reprogramming, Cell culture, Cellular differentiation and Gene expression profiling. His work in Epigenomics addresses subjects such as RNA-Directed DNA Methylation, which are connected to disciplines such as Epigenetics of physical exercise.

He most often published in these fields:

  • DNA methylation (90.08%)
  • Genetics (69.15%)
  • Cell biology (72.73%)

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

  • Cell biology (72.73%)
  • DNA methylation (90.08%)
  • Epigenetics (69.15%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, DNA methylation, Epigenetics, Embryonic stem cell and Methylation. His work deals with themes such as Chromatin, Transcription factor, Cell fate determination and Induced pluripotent stem cell, which intersect with Cell biology. His study looks at the relationship between Induced pluripotent stem cell and topics such as Reprogramming, which overlap with Cell type.

His DNA methylation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cancer, Cancer research and Computational biology. His Epigenetics research includes elements of DNA, Epigenomics, Chronic lymphocytic leukemia and Epigenome. His Embryonic stem cell study combines topics in areas such as Lineage, Cellular differentiation, Embryo and Somatic cell.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Molecular recording of mammalian Embryogenesis (108 citations)
  • Molecular recording of mammalian Embryogenesis (108 citations)
  • Molecular recording of mammalian Embryogenesis (108 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Epigenetics, DNA methylation, Cell biology, Embryonic stem cell and Computational biology. His studies in Epigenetics integrate themes in fields like Chromatin, Genetic heterogeneity and Polymerase. His research integrates issues of Methylation and Trinucleotide repeat expansion in his study of DNA methylation.

The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Cell cycle, Cellular differentiation and Induced pluripotent stem cell. His studies deal with areas such as DNA demethylation and Reprogramming as well as Epigenomics. His Bisulfite sequencing study contributes to a more complete understanding of Genetics.
