Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Claude Desplan mostly deals with Genetics, Gene, Homeobox, Cell biology and Ommatidium. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Gene, RNA, Model organism, RNA interference and Genetic analysis is strongly linked to Computational biology. His Homeobox research includes elements of Conserved sequence, DNA binding site and DNA.

His Cell biology research includes themes of Photoreceptor cell, Rhodopsin and Morphogen. His Rhodopsin research incorporates themes from Drosophila melanogaster and Retina. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Melanogaster and Developmental biology.

His most cited work include:

  • Functional and evolutionary insights from the genomes of three parasitoid Nasonia species. (705 citations)
  • Stochasticity and cell fate. (517 citations)
  • A single amino acid can determine the DNA binding specificity of homeodomain proteins (410 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Cell biology, Neuroscience, Gene and Transcription factor. Claude Desplan combines subjects such as Rhodopsin, Retina, Drosophila Protein and Anatomy with his study of Cell biology. His Neuroscience study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Progenitor cell and Neural stem cell.

Within one scientific family, Claude Desplan focuses on topics pertaining to Computational biology under Gene, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Cell type. His Homeobox research incorporates elements of Transcription and Binding site. His Drosophila melanogaster research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary biology and Ommatidium.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (32.68%)
  • Cell biology (31.13%)
  • Neuroscience (30.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (30.35%)
  • Cell type (8.56%)
  • Neuroblast (9.73%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Cell type, Neuroblast, Neural stem cell and Neurogenesis. His work deals with themes such as Progenitor cell, Mushroom bodies and Neural development, which intersect with Neuroscience. The various areas that Claude Desplan examines in his Cell type study include Regulation of gene expression, Transcription factor, Computational biology and Brain development.

Claude Desplan works mostly in the field of Transcription factor, limiting it down to concerns involving Cell biology and, occasionally, Chromatin and Rhodopsin. In his research, Anatomy is intimately related to Retinotopy, which falls under the overarching field of Neurogenesis. His Gene study improves the overall literature in Genetics.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An Engineered orco Mutation Produces Aberrant Social Behavior and Defective Neural Development in Ants (105 citations)
  • Phenotypic Convergence: Distinct Transcription Factors Regulate Common Terminal Features. (79 citations)
  • Phenotypic Convergence: Distinct Transcription Factors Regulate Common Terminal Features. (79 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Retinotopy, Cell type and Neural stem cell. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Rna profiling and Progenitor cell. His study in Neurogenesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Motion perception, Retina, Visual system and Sensory system.

His research in Retinotopy intersects with topics in Motion detection, Neural development, Anatomy and Ommatidium. His Anatomy study incorporates themes from Epidermal growth factor, Neuroglia, Drosophila Protein and Biological neural network. His studies deal with areas such as RNA, Transcription factor and Computational biology as well as Cell type.
