The fields of study he is best known for:

• Gene
• DNA
• Enzyme

His scientific interests lie mostly in Anopheles gambiae, Molecular biology, Gene, Genetics and Anopheles. His research in Anopheles gambiae intersects with topics in Defensin, Virology, Vector, Cell nucleus and Innate immune system. His work carried out in the field of Virology brings together such families of science as Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium and Malaria.

His study in Molecular biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both RNA, Transcription factor, Complementary DNA, Molecular cloning and Globin. His works in Messenger RNA, Exon, Coding region, Regulation of gene expression and Gene expression are all subjects of inquiry into Gene. His Anopheles research incorporates themes from Protein isoform, Expressed sequence tag, Cecropin, Plasmodium berghei and Midgut.

His most cited work include:

• Functional cDNA libraries from Drosophila embryos. (507 citations)
• Functional cDNA libraries from Drosophila embryos. (507 citations)
• Comparative genome and proteome analysis of Anopheles gambiae and Drosophila melanogaster. (468 citations)

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

Genetics, Gene, Molecular biology, Drosophila melanogaster and Anopheles gambiae are his primary areas of study. His research ties DNA and Gene together. His research investigates the connection between Molecular biology and topics such as Messenger RNA that intersect with issues in Protein biosynthesis.

The Drosophila melanogaster study combines topics in areas such as Phenotype, Mutant and Cell biology. The concepts of his Anopheles gambiae study are interwoven with issues in Innate immune system, Plasmodium berghei, Virology and Anopheles. The various areas that Fotis C. Kafatos examines in his Complementary DNA study include Peptide sequence and Bombyx.
