Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

Gene
DNA
RNA

Genetics, Viral quasispecies, Virus, RNA and Virology are her primary areas of study. Her Genetics research is mostly focused on the topic RNA virus. As a member of one scientific family, Cristina Escarmís mostly works in the field of RNA virus, focusing on Muller's ratchet and, on occasion, Nucleic acid sequence.

Her Viral quasispecies research incorporates elements of Mutation and Mutation rate. Her research investigates the connection with Virus and areas like Viral evolution which intersect with concerns in Adaptation, Negative selection, Viral entry, Genetic variation and Host. Her research related to RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and Picornavirus might be considered part of RNA.

Her most cited work include:

Basic concepts in RNA virus evolution. (369 citations)
Foot-and-mouth disease virus. (260 citations)
Evolution of foot-and-mouth disease virus. (245 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Virus, Virology, Viral quasispecies and RNA. Genome, RNA virus, Mutation, Nucleic acid sequence and Serial passage are the subjects of her Genetics studies. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Picornavirus and Mutant.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Polyadenylate, Cell culture and Muller's ratchet in addition to Virology. Her Viral quasispecies research includes elements of Viral evolution, Molecular evolution, Viral entry, Mutation rate and Mutagenesis. Her RNA research integrates issues from Replicon and Polymerase.

She most often published in these fields:

Genetics (54.76%)
Virus (50.00%)
Virology (48.81%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2004-2014)?

Genetics (54.76%)
Virology (48.81%)
Virus (50.00%)

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

Cristina Escarmís spends much of her time researching Genetics, Virology, Virus, RNA and Viral quasispecies. Her works in Genome, Mutation, Nucleic acid sequence and Viral evolution are all subjects of inquiry into Genetics. Her research in the fields of Foot-and-mouth disease virus overlaps with other disciplines such as Library science and Network of excellence.

As part of the same scientific family, Cristina Escarmís usually focuses on Virus, concentrating on Mutant and intersecting with Molecular biology and Viral entry. Her RNA research includes themes of Polymerase and Viral replication. Her studies in Viral quasispecies integrate themes in fields like Mutagenesis, Population size, Mutation rate and Aphthovirus.

Between 2004 and 2014, her most popular works were:

A comparison of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (182 citations)
The structure of a protein primer–polymerase complex in the initiation of genome replication (104 citations)
Sequential structures provide insights into the fidelity of RNA replication (101 citations)
