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

His main research concerns Ontology, Computational biology, Data science, Information retrieval and World Wide Web. His studies deal with areas such as Metadata, Annotation, Data integration, Gene Annotation and Big data as well as Ontology. His Big data research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Controlled vocabulary and Knowledge sharing.

He interconnects Serial homology, Logical data model and Set in the investigation of issues within Computational biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including LOINC, Human Phenotype Ontology and Gene ontology. Christopher J. Mungall has included themes like Clinical terminology, Disease Ontology and Rare disease in his World Wide Web study.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Gene Ontology Resource: 20 years and still GOing strong (1527 citations)
  • Expansion of the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) knowledge base and resources. (276 citations)
  • GOATOOLS: A Python library for Gene Ontology analyses. (215 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Programming language
  • Artificial intelligence

His primary areas of study are Ontology, World Wide Web, Information retrieval, Resource and Biological Ontologies. His research in Ontology is mostly concerned with Open Biomedical Ontologies. Much of his study explores World Wide Web relationship to Annotation.

His Annotation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as UniProt and Assertion. The Information retrieval study which covers Gene ontology that intersects with Python, Molecular Sequence Annotation and Interpretation. In his research on the topic of Biological Ontologies, LOINC, Identifier, Software and The Internet is strongly related with Human Phenotype Ontology.
