Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Virus

Fernando González-Candelas mainly focuses on Genetics, Virology, Phylogenetic tree, Gene and Phylogenetics. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Evolutionary biology and Genetics. Hepacivirus, Hepatitis C virus, Outbreak and Virus are among the areas of Virology where he concentrates his study.

His Phylogenetic tree research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genus and Tribe. His Horizontal gene transfer, Molecular evolution and Buchnera study in the realm of Gene connects with subjects such as Wigglesworthia glossinidia. His studies in Phylogenetics integrate themes in fields like Molecular epidemiology and Blochmannia.

His most cited work include:

  • The genome sequence of Blochmannia floridanus: Comparative analysis of reduced genomes (303 citations)
  • Multiple methods for the identification of polymorphic simple sequence repeats (SSRs) in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]. (273 citations)
  • The population genetics and evolutionary epidemiology of RNA viruses (273 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Virology, Phylogenetic tree, Genome and Hepatitis C virus. His Genetics study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Genetic diversity. His Virology research focuses on Genotype and how it connects with Coding region.

His Phylogenetic tree research incorporates elements of Treponema, Phylogenetics, Computational biology and Molecular epidemiology. His research in Genome intersects with topics in Evolutionary biology and DNA sequencing. His study in Hepatitis C virus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hepatitis C and Hypervariable region.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (38.89%)
  • Virology (26.07%)
  • Phylogenetic tree (22.65%)

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

  • Genome (19.66%)
  • DNA sequencing (8.55%)
  • Molecular epidemiology (13.25%)

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

His primary areas of study are Genome, DNA sequencing, Molecular epidemiology, Genetics and Computational biology. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics and Virology. He combines subjects such as Gastroenterology and Hospital admission with his study of Virology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Klebsiella pneumoniae, Antibiotic resistance, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Virulence. His work on Genetics deals in particular with Whole genome sequencing, Multilocus sequence typing, Bacterial genome size, Phenotype and Gene. The study incorporates disciplines such as Routine clinical practice, Genomics, Genomic information and Phylogenetic tree in addition to Computational biology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Emergence and spread of a SARS-CoV-2 variant through Europe in the summer of 2020 (67 citations)
  • Ancient Bacterial Genomes Reveal a High Diversity of Treponema pallidum Strains in Early Modern Europe. (49 citations)
  • SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19: A genetic, epidemiological, and evolutionary perspective. (46 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genome
  • Virus

His main research concerns Treponema, Evolutionary biology, Coronavirus disease 2019, Computational biology and Phylogenetic tree. The Treponema study combines topics in areas such as Sister group and Bacterial genome size. His work investigates the relationship between Bacterial genome size and topics such as Virology that intersect with problems in Genome.

Gene and Genetics are the two main areas of interest in his Genome studies. His study looks at the intersection of Computational biology and topics like Single molecule real time sequencing with Population genomics. The concepts of his Phylogenetic tree study are interwoven with issues in Recombination, Recombinant DNA, Pol genes, Phylogenetics and Molecular epidemiology.
