What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
His primary scientific interests are in Phylogenetics, Ecology, Sponge, Evolutionary biology and Zoology.
His studies in Phylogenetics integrate themes in fields like Taxon, Myosin and Phylogenetic tree.
In his study, Vicariance, Incipient speciation, Genetic divergence and Ecosystem is inextricably linked to Biological dispersal, which falls within the broad field of Ecology.
His work in the fields of Sponge, such as Demosponge, overlaps with other areas such as Organic fraction.
He focuses mostly in the field of Evolutionary biology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Mitochondrial DNA and, in certain cases, Phylogenetic reconstruction, DNA barcoding and Hexacorallia.
The Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Sister group, Molecular phylogenetics, Ctenophora, Most recent common ancestor and Monophyly.
His most cited work include:
- Resolving Difficult Phylogenetic Questions: Why More Sequences Are Not Enough (724 citations)
- Phylogenomics Revives Traditional Views on Deep Animal Relationships (551 citations)
- Slow mitochondrial DNA sequence evolution in the Anthozoa (Cnidaria). (448 citations)
