Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Cytokine

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, T cell, Immunology, IL-2 receptor and Cytokine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Clonal anergy, Cellular differentiation, CD8, Histone and Epigenetics in addition to Cell biology. Andrew D. Wells studies CD28 which is a part of T cell.

Andrew D. Wells combines subjects such as Cell and In vivo with his study of Immunology. His IL-2 receptor research is classified as research in Cytotoxic T cell. His studies deal with areas such as Peripheral tolerance and Transplantation as well as Cytokine.

His most cited work include:

  • Blocking both signal 1 and signal 2 of T-cell activation prevents apoptosis of alloreactive T cells and induction of peripheral allograft tolerance (721 citations)
  • Deacetylase inhibition promotes the generation and function of regulatory T cells (696 citations)
  • Requirement for T-cell apoptosis in the induction of peripheral transplantation tolerance. (569 citations)

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

Andrew D. Wells spends much of his time researching Cell biology, T cell, Gene, Immunology and Genome-wide association study. His Cell biology research incorporates elements of IL-2 receptor, Cytokine, Cell division, Histone and FOXP3. The concepts of his T cell study are interwoven with issues in Cytotoxic T cell, Cancer research and Cyclin-dependent kinase.

He has included themes like Molecular biology and CD8 in his Cytotoxic T cell study. Many of his research projects under Gene are closely connected to Gene mapping with Gene mapping, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Immunology research includes elements of Apoptosis and Transplantation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (50.27%)
  • T cell (39.89%)
  • Gene (39.34%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Gene (39.34%)
  • Computational biology (30.05%)
  • Genome-wide association study (30.60%)

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

Gene, Computational biology, Genome-wide association study, Chromatin and Epigenetics are his primary areas of study. His study in the fields of Genome, Genome editing and Promoter under the domain of Gene overlaps with other disciplines such as Gene mapping. His Chromatin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mutation, Enhancer, Transcription factor, Epigenomics and Cell biology.

Andrew D. Wells has researched Cell biology in several fields, including RUNX2 and ALPL. His research in Epigenetics intersects with topics in Lymphatic system, Immunology, Lymphocyte and Cytotoxic T cell, Cytolysis. His T cell study contributes to a more complete understanding of Immune system.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • T follicular helper cells in human efferent lymph retain lymphoid characteristics. (53 citations)
  • T follicular helper cells in human efferent lymph retain lymphoid characteristics. (53 citations)
  • Genome-scale Capture C promoter interactions implicate effector genes at GWAS loci for bone mineral density. (49 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Transcription factor

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Gene, Computational biology, Epigenetics, Genome-wide association study and Chromatin. His Computational biology research incorporates elements of Promoter, Gene expression, Regulation of gene expression and Cell. Andrew D. Wells combines subjects such as H3K4me3, Histone and Genetic variation with his study of Regulation of gene expression.

His work in Epigenetics addresses issues such as Immunology, which are connected to fields such as Cytolysis. The concepts of his Genome-wide association study study are interwoven with issues in Liver disease, Cancer, Disease and Effector.
