Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Cellular differentiation

His primary areas of study are Embryonic stem cell, Cell biology, Cellular differentiation, Stem cell and Induced pluripotent stem cell. As part of his studies on Embryonic stem cell, Austin Smith frequently links adjacent subjects like STAT3. His research integrates issues of Cell potency, Genetics and Regulation of gene expression in his study of Cell biology.

His Cellular differentiation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Molecular biology, Transcriptome and Oct-4. His research in Stem cell intersects with topics in Cell culture, KOSR, Induced stem cells, Adult stem cell and Immunology. His Induced pluripotent stem cell research incorporates themes from TCF3, DNA methylation and Embryo.

His most cited work include:

  • Quantitative expression of Oct-3/4 defines differentiation, dedifferentiation or self-renewal of ES cells. (3148 citations)
  • Formation of Pluripotent Stem Cells in the Mammalian Embryo Depends on the POU Transcription Factor Oct4 (2907 citations)
  • FUNCTIONAL EXPRESSION CLONING OF NANOG, A PLURIPOTENCY SUSTAINING FACTOR IN EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS (2873 citations)
