Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Genome

Genetics, Gene, Genetic variation, Evolutionary biology and Genome are his primary areas of study. His research related to Drosophila melanogaster, Allele, Haplotype, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Human genome might be considered part of Genetics. His study focuses on the intersection of Human genome and fields such as Computational biology with connections in the field of Genomics and 1000 Genomes Project.

His Genetic variation research integrates issues from Microbiome, Genetic variability, Nucleotide diversity and Population genetics. His research on Evolutionary biology also deals with topics like

  • Selection which intersects with area such as Balancing selection,
  • Genetic association which intersects with area such as Common disease-common variant and Genome-wide association study. Linkage Disequilibrium Mapping and Imputation is closely connected to ENCODE in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Genome.

His most cited work include:

  • The sequence of the human genome. (10608 citations)
  • A global reference for human genetic variation. (7825 citations)
  • Finding the missing heritability of complex diseases. (6217 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Gene, Evolutionary biology, Drosophila melanogaster and Genome. As part of his studies on Genetics, Andrew G. Clark often connects relevant areas like Population genetics. While the research belongs to areas of Evolutionary biology, Andrew G. Clark spends his time largely on the problem of Y chromosome, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Autosome and X chromosome.

The Drosophila melanogaster study combines topics in areas such as Sperm, Mating and Fecundity. The study incorporates disciplines such as Computational biology and DNA sequencing in addition to Genome. His Allele research includes themes of Genotype, Gene drive, CRISPR and Locus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (72.03%)
  • Gene (26.95%)
  • Evolutionary biology (24.24%)

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

  • Genetics (72.03%)
  • Gene (26.95%)
  • Evolutionary biology (24.24%)

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

Andrew G. Clark spends much of his time researching Genetics, Gene, Evolutionary biology, Genome and Drosophila melanogaster. His studies in Transcriptome, Genome-wide association study, Quantitative trait locus, Mutation rate and Germline are all subfields of Genetics research. In his research on the topic of Gene, Genome project is strongly related with Computational biology.

His studies in Evolutionary biology integrate themes in fields like Comparative genomics, Evolutionary dynamics, Domestication, Satellite DNA and Genetic variation. His Genome research incorporates themes from Heterochromatin and Y chromosome. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sperm, Demographic history and Candidate gene.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Reducing resistance allele formation in CRISPR gene drive (116 citations)
  • RepeatModeler2 for automated genomic discovery of transposable element families. (72 citations)
  • Red fox genome assembly identifies genomic regions associated with tame and aggressive behaviours (60 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His primary areas of investigation include Gene, Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Genome and Allele. His research integrates issues of Plant reproductive morphology and Dioecy in his study of Gene. His study in Evolutionary biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Domestication, Y chromosome, Population genetics and Genetic diversity.

His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Nervous system and Genetics. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Phylogenetics and Locus. His Allele study incorporates themes from Rate of evolution, Gene drive, Biological dispersal, Genetic variation and Mechanism.
