2019 - Fellow, The World Academy of Sciences

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • IUCN Red List

His primary areas of investigation include Ailuropoda melanoleuca, Ecology, Endangered species, Habitat and Zoology. Fuwen Wei has researched Ailuropoda melanoleuca in several fields, including Evolutionary biology, Genome, Population size, Threatened species and Adaptation. The Cancer genome sequencing, Genomics and Reference genome research he does as part of his general Genome study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Sequence assembly, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His studies link Demographic history with Ecology. His work investigates the relationship between Endangered species and topics such as Habitat conservation that intersect with problems in Old-growth forest, Carnivore, Obligate, Foraging and Herbivore. His Habitat research focuses on Nature reserve and how it relates to Sympatric speciation, Tree stump, Sympatry and Ailuropoda.

His most cited work include:

  • The sequence and de novo assembly of the giant panda genome (932 citations)
  • Evidence of cellulose metabolism by the giant panda gut microbiome (267 citations)
  • Whole-genome sequencing of giant pandas provides insights into demographic history and local adaptation (210 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Ailuropoda melanoleuca, Zoology, Endangered species and Habitat. Nature reserve, Animal ecology, Rhinopithecus bieti, Home range and Range are among the areas of Ecology where he concentrates his study. His Ailuropoda melanoleuca research incorporates elements of Habitat fragmentation, Biological dispersal and Bamboo.

Fuwen Wei usually deals with Zoology and limits it to topics linked to Adaptation and Evolutionary biology. His study on Evolutionary biology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Genome which is related to area like Computational biology,
  • Genetics which is related to area like Population genetics. His research in Endangered species intersects with topics in Habitat conservation, Ecology and Population size.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (50.00%)
  • Ailuropoda melanoleuca (29.03%)
  • Zoology (24.19%)

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

  • Zoology (24.19%)
  • Ailuropoda melanoleuca (29.03%)
  • Evolutionary biology (13.98%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Zoology, Ailuropoda melanoleuca, Evolutionary biology, Ecology and Habitat. His Zoology study incorporates themes from Omnivore, Bamboo and Herbivore. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Ailuropoda melanoleuca, Helminths and Acclimatization is strongly linked to Feces.

His Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Genetic diversity, Phylogenetic tree, Genome, Comparative genomics and Developmental biology. His works in Nature reserve, Endangered species, Transect, Threatened species and Extreme weather are all subjects of inquiry into Ecology. Fuwen Wei has included themes like Quadrat, Canopy, Climate change, Tree stump and Taxonomy in his Habitat study.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Diet Evolution and Habitat Contraction of Giant Pandas via Stable Isotope Analysis (41 citations)
  • Seasonal and reproductive variation in chemical constituents of scent signals in wild giant pandas (41 citations)
  • The role of den quality in giant panda conservation (35 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • IUCN Red List

Zoology, Endangered species, Ecological niche, Evolutionary biology and Protected area are his primary areas of study. His work in the fields of Zoology, such as Seasonal breeder, overlaps with other areas such as PANDAS. His work carried out in the field of Endangered species brings together such families of science as Genetic divergence, Population bottleneck, Mammal, Genetic load and Biogeography.

His Evolutionary biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genome, Synteny and Comparative genomics. Foraging is a subfield of Ecology that Fuwen Wei studies. His Old-growth forest research includes themes of Wildlife conservation, Habitat, Nature reserve and Ailuropoda melanoleuca.
