Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

Christian Becker mainly focuses on Genetics, Cancer research, Internal medicine, Missense mutation and Endocrinology. His Genetics study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Molecular biology. His studies deal with areas such as Genome, Human genome, Gene expression profiling, Mutation and Immunology as well as Cancer research.

Christian Becker combines subjects such as Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Allele with his study of Internal medicine. His Missense mutation study combines topics in areas such as Disease gene identification and Nephrotic syndrome. His Endocrinology study incorporates themes from Cilium, Renal-hepatic-pancreatic dysplasia and Pathology.

His most cited work include:

  • Comprehensive genomic profiles of small cell lung cancer (866 citations)
  • Integrative genome analyses identify key somatic driver mutations of small-cell lung cancer (845 citations)
  • Lifestyle transitions in plant pathogenic Colletotrichum fungi deciphered by genome and transcriptome analyses (512 citations)

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

Christian Becker spends much of his time researching Genetics, Cell biology, Cancer research, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Missense mutation. His work often combines Genetics and Gene mapping studies. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Gene expression, Receptor, Olfactory epithelium, RNA and Chromatin.

The various areas that Christian Becker examines in his Cancer research study include Immunohistochemistry, Cancer, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Gene expression profiling. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research integrates issues from Odds ratio and Allele. His Disease gene identification research includes elements of Nephrotic syndrome and Autosome.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (44.54%)
  • Cell biology (14.29%)
  • Cancer research (10.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Cell biology (14.29%)
  • Hearing loss (1.68%)
  • Transcriptome (6.72%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Hearing loss, Transcriptome, Gene and Interphase. The various areas that Christian Becker examines in his Cell biology study include Mutation, Mitochondrial DNA and DNA replication. His Hearing loss study incorporates themes from Molecular analysis, Etiology, Genetics and Candidate gene.

His Transcriptome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in HMGB2, Senescence, Cell type and Genomic organization. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Domestication and Population structure. Christian Becker combines subjects such as Chromatin and Mitosis with his study of Interphase.

Between 2017 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Integrative genomic profiling of large-cell neuroendocrine carcinomas reveals distinct subtypes of high-grade neuroendocrine lung tumors (100 citations)
  • HMGB2 Loss upon Senescence Entry Disrupts Genomic Organization and Induces CTCF Clustering across Cell Types (65 citations)
  • Linear mitochondrial DNA is rapidly degraded by components of the replication machinery (60 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

Gene, Cell biology, Transcriptome, Carcinoma and Cancer research are his primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Senescence and Cell type in addition to Gene. His work on Mitochondrion as part of general Cell biology research is often related to ENDOG, thus linking different fields of science.

His Transcriptome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell, In situ hybridization, Large cell, Lung and STK11. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Immunohistochemistry, Cancer, Breast cancer, Fusion transcript and Pancreas. The concepts of his Cancer research study are interwoven with issues in Receptor and Breast carcinoma.
