His main research concerns Biochemistry, Fatty acid amide hydrolase, Anandamide, Endocannabinoid system and Cannabinoid receptor. Biochemistry is closely attributed to In vivo in his research. Benjamin F. Cravatt interconnects AM404, Hydrolase, Neocortex, Fatty acid and URB597 in the investigation of issues within Fatty acid amide hydrolase.
Benjamin F. Cravatt combines subjects such as Fatty acid amide, Cannabinoid, Endogeny, JZL184 and Pharmacology with his study of Anandamide. Benjamin F. Cravatt studies Endocannabinoid system, namely Monoacylglycerol lipase. His Proteome study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Amino acid, Molecular probe, Proteomics, Cysteine and Small molecule.
Benjamin F. Cravatt mainly investigates Biochemistry, Fatty acid amide hydrolase, Endocannabinoid system, Anandamide and Enzyme. His study connects In vivo and Biochemistry. His research integrates issues of Oleamide, Amidase, Fatty acid, Stereochemistry and URB597 in his study of Fatty acid amide hydrolase.
His Endocannabinoid system research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Pharmacology and Cannabinoid receptor. His research in Cannabinoid receptor intersects with topics in Cannabinoid and Neuroscience. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cysteine, Activity-based proteomics and Cell biology in addition to Proteome.
Cell biology, Biochemistry, Endocannabinoid system, Monoacylglycerol lipase and Pharmacology are his primary areas of study. His Biochemistry study focuses mostly on Enzyme, Cysteine, Serine, In vitro and Metabolism. His work carried out in the field of Endocannabinoid system brings together such families of science as Fatty acid amide hydrolase, Anandamide, Cannabinoid receptor type 1 and Cannabinoid receptor.
