2008 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
His primary areas of study are Adhesion, Biochemistry, Mussel, Byssus and Biophysics. His Adhesion research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Covalent bond, Chemical engineering, Nanotechnology and Polymer. His work in the fields of Biochemistry, such as Amino acid, Peptide sequence and Mole, intersects with other areas such as Sandcastle worm.
He integrates Mussel and Mussel adhesion in his studies. His Byssus study introduces a deeper knowledge of Mytilus. His studies deal with areas such as Closed cell, Elastin and Signal peptide as well as Biophysics.
J. Herbert Waite mainly focuses on Mussel, Biochemistry, Biophysics, Adhesion and Byssus. His Mussel research focuses on Nanotechnology and how it connects with Composite material. His Biophysics study combines topics in areas such as Elastin, Cuticle, Anatomy and SILK.
His Adhesion study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Redox, Chemical engineering, Polymer and Mica. His research in Chemical engineering intersects with topics in Organic chemistry, Adsorption and Aqueous solution. His Byssus research includes elements of Complementary DNA and Bivalvia.
His primary scientific interests are in Mussel, Adhesion, Nanotechnology, Chemical engineering and Biophysics. Many of his research projects under Mussel are closely connected to Network structure with Network structure, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Adhesion study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Redox, Polymer and Mica.
The various areas that he examines in his Nanotechnology study include Surface modification and Substrate. The study incorporates disciplines such as Catechol, Organic chemistry and Adsorption in addition to Chemical engineering. His Biophysics research integrates issues from Melanin, Peptide, Plasma protein binding and Hydrogen bond.
His scientific interests lie mostly in Chemical engineering, Nanotechnology, Adhesion, Polymer and Coacervate. His study in Chemical engineering is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mussel and Organic chemistry, Adsorption, Aqueous solution. In his study, he carries out multidisciplinary Mussel and Mussel adhesion research.
His Nanotechnology research includes themes of Substrate, Biophysics, Surface modification and Peptide. His study connects Mica and Adhesion. His research in Polymer tackles topics such as Polymer chemistry which are related to areas like Chelation.
