What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Francesc Calafell mainly investigates Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Population genetics, Genetic variation and Haplotype.
His study in Allele, Microsatellite, Locus, Genetic drift and Founder effect is carried out as part of his Genetics studies.
His Evolutionary biology research integrates issues from Bantu languages, Haplogroup, Mitochondrial DNA, Gene pool and Gene flow.
His Population genetics research incorporates elements of Variation, Genetic diversity and Analysis of molecular variance.
In general Genetic variation study, his work on Genetic distance often relates to the realm of High variability, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
His studies deal with areas such as Nucleic acid sequence, Bulgarian, Pairwise comparison and Turkish as well as Haplotype.
His most cited work include:
- Trading genes along the silk road: mtDNA sequences and the origin of central Asian populations. (278 citations)
- Trading genes along the silk road: mtDNA sequences and the origin of central Asian populations. (278 citations)
- High-Resolution Analysis of Human Y-Chromosome Variation Shows a Sharp Discontinuity and Limited Gene Flow between Northwestern Africa and the Iberian Peninsula (241 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Haplotype, Evolutionary biology, Allele and Population genetics.
Genetics is represented through his Allele frequency, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic variation, Microsatellite and Gene research.
His Haplotype course of study focuses on Y chromosome and Genealogy and Lineage.
His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary biology brings together such families of science as Haplogroup, Mitochondrial DNA, Phylogenetics, Gene pool and Gene flow.
The Allele study combines topics in areas such as Genotype, Disease and Locus.
His research in Population genetics focuses on subjects like Genetic diversity, which are connected to Founder effect and Peninsula.
He most often published in these fields:
- Genetics (63.03%)
- Haplotype (30.33%)
- Evolutionary biology (30.33%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?
- Evolutionary biology (30.33%)
- Genetics (63.03%)
- Genealogy (9.00%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Genealogy, Y chromosome and Haplogroup.
His Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Haplogroup CT, Population genetics, Haplogroup H, Gene flow and Haplogroup L3.
He combines subjects such as Genetic structure, Genetic diversity and Candidate gene with his study of Population genetics.
In most of his Genetics studies, his work intersects topics such as Primary progressive aphasia.
His studies in Y chromosome integrate themes in fields like Genetic marker, Lineage, Bronze Age and Ancient DNA.
His Haplogroup research also works with subjects such as
- Phylogenetics which is related to area like 1000 Genomes Project,
- Mitochondrial DNA together with Phylogenetic tree, Human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup and Peninsula.
Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Combined epigenetic and intraspecific variation of the DRD4 and SERT genes influence novelty seeking behavior in great tit Parus major. (42 citations)
- The Y chromosome as the most popular marker in genetic genealogy benefits interdisciplinary research (38 citations)
- Y-chromosome diversity in Catalan surname samples: insights into surname origin and frequency (26 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Haplogroup, Evolutionary biology, Y chromosome and Massive parallel sequencing.
Francesc Calafell regularly ties together related areas like Population genetics in his Genetics studies.
His Population genetics research incorporates themes from Gene flow, Genetic variation, Demographic history, Gene pool and Genetic heterogeneity.
His study in Haplogroup is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Haplogroup CT, Haplogroup D-M15, Phylogenetics, 1000 Genomes Project and Haplogroup G-M406.
His work deals with themes such as Haplogroup H, Haplogroup M, Haplogroup L3 and Haplogroup IJ, which intersect with Evolutionary biology.
In his research on the topic of Y chromosome, Human genetics, Genetic marker, Microsatellite, Genetic genealogy and Family history is strongly related with Genealogy.
