Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

James G. Wetmur mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Biochemistry, Pregnancy and DNA. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Allele and Environmental exposure. His Allele research incorporates themes from Porphobilinogen synthase, Dehydratase and Isozyme.

The concepts of his Endocrinology study are interwoven with issues in Genetics, Phthalate, Imprinting and Genotype. As a part of the same scientific family, James G. Wetmur mostly works in the field of Pregnancy, focusing on PON1 and, on occasion, Paraoxonase. He interconnects Crystallography, Ethylene glycol, Reaction rate, Viscosity and Chemical modification in the investigation of issues within DNA.

His most cited work include:

  • Kinetics of renaturation of DNA. (1233 citations)
  • DNA probes: applications of the principles of nucleic acid hybridization. (533 citations)
  • Prenatal Phenol and Phthalate Exposures and Birth Outcomes (421 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include DNA, Genetics, Molecular biology, Biochemistry and Gene. The various areas that James G. Wetmur examines in his DNA study include Crystallography, Reaction rate constant, Biophysics and RNA. His studies in Crystallography integrate themes in fields like Analytical chemistry and Nucleation.

His Molecular biology study incorporates themes from Cell, Primer extension, Transcription and Restriction enzyme. His Genotype study combines topics in areas such as Internal medicine, Case-control study, Colorectal cancer and Endocrinology. His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Physiology and Environmental exposure.

He most often published in these fields:

  • DNA (31.43%)
  • Genetics (27.14%)
  • Molecular biology (22.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2018)?

  • Genetics (27.14%)
  • Breast cancer (10.71%)
  • Gene (20.00%)

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

James G. Wetmur spends much of his time researching Genetics, Breast cancer, Gene, DNA methylation and Internal medicine. James G. Wetmur is interested in Genotype, which is a field of Genetics. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Andrology and Cell.

His DNA methylation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Methylation and Epigenetics. His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Infant newborn, Endocrinology and Oncology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sex factors, Phthalate and Physiology in addition to Endocrinology.

Between 2006 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Prenatal Phenol and Phthalate Exposures and Birth Outcomes (421 citations)
  • Prenatal exposure to organophosphates, paraoxonase 1, and cognitive development in childhood. (266 citations)
  • Prenatal Organophosphate Metabolite and Organochlorine Levels and Performance on the Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale in a Multiethnic Pregnancy Cohort (200 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Internal medicine, Breast cancer, Endocrinology, Genetics and Genotype are his primary areas of study. His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Infant newborn, Prenatal care and Phenol. His Breast cancer study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Epigenetics, Case-control study and DNA methylation.

His Endocrinology research integrates issues from Pregnancy, Sex factors, Phthalate and Physiology. PON1 is the focus of his Genetics research. James G. Wetmur has included themes like Odds ratio, Amplicon and DNA in his Genotype study.
