Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Mutation

Genetics, Molecular biology, Patched, Sonic hedgehog and Cancer research are his primary areas of study. In his research, Brandon J. Wainwright performs multidisciplinary study on Genetics and Spurious relationship. Brandon J. Wainwright interconnects Missense mutation, Mesenchyme, Apical ectodermal ridge and Mutant, Point mutation in the investigation of issues within Molecular biology.

His Patched research integrates issues from Nevoid basal-cell carcinoma syndrome and Segment polarity gene. His Sonic hedgehog study combines topics in areas such as Medulloblastoma and Hedgehog, Hedgehog signaling pathway, Smoothened. His Cancer research study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Tumor suppressor gene, Transgene and Loss of heterozygosity.

His most cited work include:

  • 'Touchdown' PCR to circumvent spurious priming during gene amplification (2395 citations)
  • Mutations of the Human Homolog of Drosophila patched in the Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome (1729 citations)
  • International network of cancer genome projects (1611 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Cell biology, Gene, Cystic fibrosis and Molecular biology. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Internal medicine and Cellular differentiation. Brandon J. Wainwright works mostly in the field of Cystic fibrosis, limiting it down to concerns involving Immunology and, occasionally, Lung and Respiratory epithelium.

His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Chromosome, Mutant, Zinc finger and Exon. His Sonic hedgehog research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cancer research, Hedgehog, Endocrinology and Hedgehog signaling pathway. His work in Cancer research addresses subjects such as Patched, which are connected to disciplines such as Nevoid basal-cell carcinoma syndrome and Phenotype.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (40.69%)
  • Cell biology (27.45%)
  • Gene (24.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Medulloblastoma (8.33%)
  • Cancer research (18.63%)
  • Sonic hedgehog (22.55%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Medulloblastoma, Cancer research, Sonic hedgehog, Hedgehog and Cell biology. His work carried out in the field of Cancer research brings together such families of science as Dermatology, Basal cell carcinoma and Epidermis. His Sonic hedgehog research incorporates elements of Cancer, Protein kinase B, Germline and Cilium.

His Hedgehog research is classified as research in Genetics. His work in the fields of Genetics, such as Embryonic stem cell, Patched, Transcription factor and Candidate gene, intersects with other areas such as Genetic association. He has included themes like Downregulation and upregulation, Precursor cell, Nuclear factor I and NFIX in his Cell biology study.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Medulloblastoma Down Under 2013: A report from the third annual meeting of the International Medulloblastoma Working Group. (77 citations)
  • Nuclear factor one transcription factors: Divergent functions in developmental versus adult stem cell populations. (38 citations)
  • The Many Faces of Elongator in Neurodevelopment and Disease. (33 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Mutation

His primary areas of study are Medulloblastoma, Sonic hedgehog, Genetics, Cell biology and Neuroscience. Brandon J. Wainwright focuses mostly in the field of Medulloblastoma, narrowing it down to topics relating to Cancer and, in certain cases, Germline mutation, Genetic predisposition, Germline and Translational elongation. The Sonic hedgehog study combines topics in areas such as Gene expression profiling, Downregulation and upregulation, Molecular biology, Precursor cell and Regulator.

His is doing research in PTCH1, Embryonic stem cell, Cellular differentiation, NFI Transcription Factors and Adult stem cell, both of which are found in Genetics. Brandon J. Wainwright has researched PTCH1 in several fields, including Lineage, Receptor and Patched. In most of his Cell biology studies, his work intersects topics such as Cell cycle.
