Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Drosophila melanogaster, Neuroscience, Cell biology and Gene. His research in the fields of P element overlaps with other disciplines such as Set. Slit is closely connected to Anatomy in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Neuroscience.

His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cyclin E and Actin cytoskeleton. His specific area of interest is Gene, where Barry J. Dickson studies Genome. Barry J. Dickson has researched Transgene in several fields, including Mutation, Gene silencing and Genetic screen.

His most cited work include:

  • A genome-wide transgenic RNAi library for conditional gene inactivation in Drosophila (2177 citations)
  • A genome-wide transgenic RNAi library for conditional gene inactivation in Drosophila (2177 citations)
  • Molecular Mechanisms of Axon Guidance (1246 citations)

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

Barry J. Dickson spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Drosophila melanogaster, Genetics, Cell biology and Courtship. His Neuroscience study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Drosophila and Anatomy. His biological study focuses on fruitless.

His studies in Gene, Drosophila Protein, Genome, Transcription factor and Transgene are all subfields of Genetics research. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Photoreceptor cell, Drosophilidae and Drosophila. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Courtship, concentrating on Function and frequently concerns with Nervous system.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (65.38%)
  • Drosophila melanogaster (45.51%)
  • Genetics (26.92%)

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

  • Neuroscience (65.38%)
  • Drosophila melanogaster (45.51%)
  • Courtship (27.56%)

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

Neuroscience, Drosophila melanogaster, Courtship, Biological neural network and Mating are his primary areas of study. His study in Neuroscience is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cell type and Function. Barry J. Dickson works mostly in the field of Drosophila melanogaster, limiting it down to concerns involving Optogenetics and, occasionally, Backward locomotion.

He has included themes like Premovement neuronal activity, Feature and Drosophila in his Courtship study. His Mating research includes elements of Receptivity and Sensory system. His work is dedicated to discovering how Sensory system, Cell biology are connected with Genetics and other disciplines.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Visual Projection Neurons Mediating Directed Courtship in Drosophila (52 citations)
  • Visual Projection Neurons Mediating Directed Courtship in Drosophila (52 citations)
  • Persistent activity in a recurrent circuit underlies courtship memory in Drosophila. (39 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Barry J. Dickson mainly investigates Neuroscience, Courtship, Drosophila melanogaster, Premovement neuronal activity and Biological neural network. His studies link Drosophila with Neuroscience. His Courtship research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Visual projection, Evolutionary change, Function and Nervous system.

His Drosophila melanogaster research integrates issues from Oviparity and Postsynaptic potential. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Long-term potentiation, Motor control, Courtship display and Sequence. His Biological neural network research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Sensory system, Mating and Cell biology.
