Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Her main research concerns Genetics, Cell biology, Dosage compensation complex, Chromosome and Gene. Her Cell biology study incorporates themes from Lac repressor and Cytokinesis. Dosage compensation complex is a subfield of Dosage compensation that Barbara J Meyer explores.

Dosage compensation is a subfield of X chromosome that Barbara J Meyer investigates. Barbara J Meyer is involved in the study of Gene that focuses on Caenorhabditis elegans in particular. Barbara J Meyer combines subjects such as Cleavage furrow formation, Cleavage furrow, Midbody, Septin and Cell cycle with her study of Caenorhabditis elegans.

Her most cited work include:

  • C. Elegans II (1054 citations)
  • Targeted genome editing across species using ZFNs and TALENs. (575 citations)
  • VIVE LA DIFFÉRENCE:Males vs Females in Flies vs Worms (509 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Cell biology, Dosage compensation, Gene and X chromosome. Caenorhabditis elegans, Meiosis, Condensin, Chromosome segregation and Chromosome are the subjects of her Genetics studies. Her study in Caenorhabditis elegans is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Chromatin and Transcription, Transcriptional regulation.

Her study in the fields of Embryo under the domain of Cell biology overlaps with other disciplines such as Programmed cell death. Barbara J Meyer is interested in Dosage compensation complex, which is a field of Dosage compensation. Many of her studies on Gene involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Hermaphrodite.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (42.27%)
  • Cell biology (29.09%)
  • Dosage compensation (24.55%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Genetics (42.27%)
  • Dosage compensation (24.55%)
  • Condensin complex (8.18%)

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

Genetics, Dosage compensation, Condensin complex, Condensin and Meiosis are her primary areas of study. Genetics is a component of her Chromosome segregation, Chromosome, Genome, Gene and Gene expression studies. In the subject of general Gene, her work in Gene family is often linked to Outcrossing, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

The concepts of her Dosage compensation study are interwoven with issues in Regulation of gene expression, Caenorhabditis elegans and Histone. Her research integrates issues of Chromosome conformation capture and Cell biology in her study of Condensin complex. Her work deals with themes such as Promoter and Molecular biology, which intersect with Condensin.

Between 2008 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Targeted genome editing across species using ZFNs and TALENs. (575 citations)
  • Condensin-driven remodelling of X chromosome topology during dosage compensation (459 citations)
  • Condensin and cohesin complexity: the expanding repertoire of functions (202 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Meiosis, Condensin, Condensin complex and Genome editing. Her works in Dosage compensation, Chromosome segregation, Dosage compensation complex, Chromosome and CRISPR are all subjects of inquiry into Genetics. Her research in Dosage compensation intersects with topics in Promoter, RNA polymerase II, Transcription factor II D, Prophase and Transcription.

Her Dosage compensation complex study is concerned with the field of X chromosome as a whole. Her research brings together the fields of Cell biology and Chromosome. Her Chromosomal crossover study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Caenorhabditis elegans, Mutant, DNA repair, Chromatid and Crossover.
