  • Selective single molecule sequencing and assembly of a human Y chromosome of African origin. (69 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Computational biology, DNA methylation, Gene, Phenotype and Genetics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Convolution, Sequence analysis and Gene expression profiling in addition to Computational biology. His study explores the link between DNA methylation and topics such as Methylation that cross with problems in Biotinylation and genomic DNA.

His Gene research integrates issues from Myeloid leukemia and Cell adhesion. In his work, Human pathogen, Protein translation, Genomics and Gene expression is strongly intertwined with Candida albicans, which is a subfield of Phenotype. He combines subjects such as Bisulfite, Pyrosequencing, Genome, Mutation rate and Primer with his study of CpG site.
