Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

Dror Sharon spends much of his time researching Genetics, Retinal degeneration, Retinitis pigmentosa, Mutation and Exome sequencing. His Mutation and Sanger sequencing investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. His research in Retinal degeneration intersects with topics in Bardet–Biedl syndrome and Genetic heterogeneity.

In his study, Nonsense mutation, GTPase and Retinal pigment epithelium is strongly linked to Disease gene identification, which falls under the umbrella field of Retinitis pigmentosa. He focuses mostly in the field of Mutation, narrowing it down to matters related to Phenotype and, in some cases, Genotype and Retinal. His Exome sequencing research incorporates themes from Genetic marker, Genetic analysis, Founder effect and Human genome.

His most cited work include:

  • Mutations in RAB28, encoding a farnesylated small gtpase, are associated with autosomal-recessive cone-rod dystrophy (68 citations)
  • The effect of cone opsin mutations on retinal structure and the integrity of the photoreceptor mosaic. (61 citations)
  • A homozygous nonsense CEP250 mutation combined with a heterozygous nonsense C2orf71 mutation is associated with atypical Usher syndrome (56 citations)

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

Dror Sharon spends much of his time researching Genetics, Retinitis pigmentosa, Exome sequencing, Retinal and Gene. His study in Genetics concentrates on Disease gene identification, Mutation, Retinal degeneration, Sanger sequencing and Mutation. His research integrates issues of Consanguinity and Cohort study in his study of Disease gene identification.

In Retinitis pigmentosa, Dror Sharon works on issues like Pediatrics, which are connected to Cohort. When carried out as part of a general Exome sequencing research project, his work on Exome is frequently linked to work in Identification, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His work carried out in the field of Retinal brings together such families of science as Phenotype, Retina, Proband and Disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (66.67%)
  • Retinitis pigmentosa (30.63%)
  • Exome sequencing (22.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Genetics (66.67%)
  • Retinitis pigmentosa (30.63%)
  • Retinal (19.82%)

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

Genetics, Retinitis pigmentosa, Retinal, Exome sequencing and Genetic analysis are his primary areas of study. His Genetics study is mostly concerned with Gene, DNA sequencing, Allele, Exon and Proband. The concepts of his Retinitis pigmentosa study are interwoven with issues in Nonsense mutation, Electroretinography, Pediatrics and ABCA4.

His Retinal study combines topics in areas such as Phenotype and Retina. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sanger sequencing, Frameshift mutation, Mutation and Macular dystrophy. Dror Sharon combines subjects such as Mutation and Disease gene identification with his study of Genetic analysis.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Worldwide carrier frequency and genetic prevalence of autosomal recessive inherited retinal diseases (25 citations)
  • Resolving the dark matter of ABCA4 for 1054 Stargardt disease probands through integrated genomics and transcriptomics (23 citations)
  • A nationwide genetic analysis of inherited retinal diseases in Israel as assessed by the Israeli inherited retinal disease consortium (IIRDC). (16 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Gene, Disease, Mutation and Retinitis pigmentosa. By researching both Genetics and Uniparental Isodisomy, he produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His Mutation research integrates issues from Disease-causing Mutation, Genotype, Sanger sequencing, Human genetics and Mendelian inheritance.

His Retinitis pigmentosa research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Exome sequencing, Genetic analysis, Founder effect, Frameshift mutation and Intronic Mutation. His Genetic analysis course of study focuses on Stargardt disease and Genetic heterogeneity, Pediatrics, Cohort and Proband. His work deals with themes such as Achromatopsia, In silico and Locus, which intersect with Allele.
