His main research concerns Cell biology, Cochlea, Hair cell, Biophysics and Inner ear. The study incorporates disciplines such as Organ of Corti and Stereocilia in addition to Cell biology. Bechara Kachar combines subjects such as Positional cloning and Protein filament with his study of Cochlea.
His research integrates issues of Protocadherin and Biochemistry in his study of Hair cell. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Vesicle, Membrane, Mechanosensitive channels and Anatomy. Hearing loss and Enlarged vestibular aqueduct is closely connected to Vestibular system in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Inner ear.
Bechara Kachar spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Biophysics, Hair cell, Cochlea and Actin. His Cell biology research incorporates elements of Inner ear, Organ of Corti, Stereocilia and Cytoskeleton. His study looks at the relationship between Inner ear and fields such as Pathology, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
He has included themes like Crystallography, Membrane, Biochemistry, Tight junction and Anatomy in his Biophysics study. In his research, Tip link is intimately related to Mechanotransduction, which falls under the overarching field of Hair cell. His work carried out in the field of Actin brings together such families of science as Stereocilium and Protein filament.
Bechara Kachar focuses on Cell biology, Hair cell, Actin, Myosin and Stereocilia. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Membrane protein, Stereocilia, Cochlea and Actin cytoskeleton. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genetics and Organ of Corti.
His Hair cell study incorporates themes from Vestibular system, Postsynaptic potential and Neurotransmission. His Actin research includes elements of Cell junction, Membrane, Motility, MDia1 and Adherens junction. His work deals with themes such as Microfilament Protein, COS cells and Protein filament, which intersect with Stereocilia.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Actin, Myosin, Hair cell and Actin cytoskeleton. He connects Cell biology with Population in his study. He combines subjects such as Cell junction, Myosin Type III, Morphogenesis, Adherens junction and Arp2/3 complex with his study of Actin.
Bechara Kachar works on Hair cell which deals in particular with Stereocilia. His Stereocilia research includes themes of Mechanotransduction and COS cells. His research in Actin cytoskeleton intersects with topics in Actinin and Occludin, Tight junction.
