Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Synechococcus, Cyanobacteria, Ecology, Botany and Prochlorococcus. His Synechococcus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Adaptation, Primary producers, Lineage and Horizontal gene transfer. His work deals with themes such as Carbon cycle and Environmental DNA, which intersect with Cyanobacteria.

His study in the field of Algae is also linked to topics like Trace metal. Brian Palenik works mostly in the field of Prochlorococcus, limiting it down to concerns involving Picoplankton and, occasionally, Micromonas, Prokaryote and Prochlorophyta. His Chloroplast research includes elements of Diatom and Thalassiosira pseudonana.

His most cited work include:

  • The Genome of the Diatom Thalassiosira Pseudonana: Ecology, Evolution, and Metabolism (1568 citations)
  • The Marine Microbial Eukaryote Transcriptome Sequencing Project (MMETSP): Illuminating the Functional Diversity of Eukaryotic Life in the Oceans through Transcriptome Sequencing (601 citations)
  • The genome of a motile marine Synechococcus (541 citations)

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

Brian Palenik spends much of his time researching Synechococcus, Gene, Ecology, Biochemistry and Botany. Cyanobacteria covers Brian Palenik research in Synechococcus. His Gene research is under the purview of Genetics.

His research investigates the connection between Biochemistry and topics such as Microbiology that intersect with problems in Multiplex, Biomass, Taxonomic rank, clone and Urease. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Botany, concentrating on Thalassiosira pseudonana and frequently concerns with Copper toxicity. His Genome research incorporates themes from Computational biology and Protein family.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Synechococcus (38.79%)
  • Gene (25.00%)
  • Ecology (23.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Synechococcus (38.79%)
  • Ecology (23.28%)
  • Botany (22.41%)

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

Brian Palenik mostly deals with Synechococcus, Ecology, Botany, Gene and Genetics. His Synechococcus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Abundance, Phylogenetic tree, Algal bloom, Mutant and Strain. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Vitamin, Biochemistry, Microbiology and Ecophysiology.

His work carried out in the field of Ecology brings together such families of science as Ribosomal RNA, Clade and Prochlorococcus. His Gene research includes elements of Biotechnology and Synthetic biology. His Genetics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ecology and Marine biology.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Marine Microbial Eukaryote Transcriptome Sequencing Project (MMETSP): Illuminating the Functional Diversity of Eukaryotic Life in the Oceans through Transcriptome Sequencing (601 citations)
  • Bringing the ocean into the laboratory to probe the chemical complexity of sea spray aerosol (264 citations)
  • Broad-host-range vector system for synthetic biology and biotechnology in cyanobacteria (92 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Genetics, Gene, Plankton and Picochlorum. His Ribosomal RNA research extends to Botany, which is thematically connected. His study in Genetics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Evolutionary biology, Ecology and Marine biology.

His work in the fields of Gene, such as Gene expression, intersects with other areas such as Phosphorus metabolism. His Plankton research is classified as research in Ecology. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Synechococcus, Prochlorococcus, Bacterioplankton and Metagenomics.
