Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Charles D. Laird mainly investigates Genetics, DNA, Molecular biology, Fragile X syndrome and Gene. His study involves FMR1, X chromosome, DNA methylation, CpG site and Applications of PCR, a branch of Genetics. He interconnects Mutant and Replication timing in the investigation of issues within FMR1.

In DNA, Charles D. Laird works on issues like Nucleotide, which are connected to Nucleic acid sequence, Fixation, Genetic code and Peptide sequence. The concepts of his Molecular biology study are interwoven with issues in Nucleolus organizer region and Transcription, Nucleosome. His studies deal with areas such as Mutation, Chromosomal fragile site and Cell cycle as well as Fragile X syndrome.

His most cited work include:

  • Nucleic acid reassociation in formamide. (489 citations)
  • Rate of Fixation of Nucleotide Substitutions in Evolution (399 citations)
  • Hairpin-bisulfite PCR: Assessing epigenetic methylation patterns on complementary strands of individual DNA molecules (227 citations)

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

Charles D. Laird mainly focuses on Genetics, DNA, Molecular biology, Fragile X syndrome and Gene. His study in Genetics concentrates on X chromosome, Allele, FMR1, Epigenetics and DNA methylation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Drosophila melanogaster, Genome and Transcription in addition to DNA.

His Molecular biology research incorporates elements of Polytene chromosome, Cell, In situ hybridization, Centromere and Cell biology. His Fragile X syndrome study also includes fields such as

  • Imprinting which is related to area like X fragile syndrome,
  • Mutation together with Mutant and Replication timing. His work deals with themes such as Ploidy and Nucleotide, which intersect with Nucleic acid sequence.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (67.42%)
  • DNA (41.57%)
  • Molecular biology (43.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2017)?

  • Genetics (67.42%)
  • DNA methylation (17.98%)
  • Methylation (14.61%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, DNA methylation, Methylation, Epigenetics and Locus. His study in Genetics focuses on CpG site, Allele, Illumina Methylation Assay, Epigenetics of physical exercise and Epigenomics. His study looks at the relationship between CpG site and topics such as Promoter, which overlap with Molecular biology and genomic DNA.

His work in the fields of Allele, such as FMR1, overlaps with other areas such as Primary ovarian insufficiency. His Epigenetics research includes elements of DNA, DNA replication, Stem cell and Cellular differentiation. He is interested in Sequence analysis, which is a field of DNA.

Between 2003 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Hairpin-bisulfite PCR: Assessing epigenetic methylation patterns on complementary strands of individual DNA molecules (227 citations)
  • Molecular barcodes detect redundancy and contamination in hairpin-bisulfite PCR. (145 citations)
  • Molecular encoding of nucleic acid templates for PCR and other forms of sequence analysis (121 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Biochemistry, DNA methylation, Sequence analysis and Oligonucleotide. His research related to Polymerase chain reaction, Multiple displacement amplification and Applications of PCR might be considered part of Genetics. His Polymerase chain reaction research incorporates themes from genomic DNA, DNA, DNA sequencing, Human genome and Ancient DNA.

Charles D. Laird has included themes like Primer dimer, Inverse polymerase chain reaction, Sequence-tagged site, Polymerase cycling assembly and Computational biology in his Multiple displacement amplification study. His study in Sequence analysis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Nucleic acid methods, Nucleic acid and Sequence. His Bisulfite sequencing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Illumina Methylation Assay and CpG site.
