2020 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Fungus
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Genome, Gene, Fungal genetics and Gene family. His study in Genetics focuses on Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Nuclear gene, Clade and Genotype. Jason E. Stajich studies Genomics, a branch of Genome.

His Gene course of study focuses on Cryptococcus neoformans and Untranslated region and Whole genome sequencing. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Basidiomycota, Mushroom, Neurospora crassa, Schizophyllum commune and Fungus. His work carried out in the field of Gene family brings together such families of science as Meiosis, Coprinus, Coprinopsis cinerea, Synteny and Gene duplication.

His most cited work include:

  • The Bioperl Toolkit: Perl Modules for the Life Sciences (1479 citations)
  • Reconstructing the early evolution of Fungi using a six-gene phylogeny (1413 citations)
  • The Generic Genome Browser: A Building Block for a Model Organism System Database (1068 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Genome, Genetics, Gene, Evolutionary biology and Phylogenetics. In his research, Computational biology is intimately related to DNA sequencing, which falls under the overarching field of Genome. His studies in Fungal genetics, Transposable element, Cryptococcus neoformans, Neurospora and Intron are all subfields of Genetics research.

His Gene study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Microbiology. His Evolutionary biology research focuses on subjects like Phylum, which are linked to Ascomycota and Zoology. His studies deal with areas such as Heterothallic and Phylogenetic tree as well as Phylogenetics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genome (43.60%)
  • Genetics (42.80%)
  • Gene (27.60%)

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

  • Genome (43.60%)
  • Evolutionary biology (20.00%)
  • Ecology (13.60%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genome, Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Genetics and Phylogenetic tree. As part of one scientific family, Jason E. Stajich deals mainly with the area of Genome, narrowing it down to issues related to the DNA sequencing, and often Computational biology. Jason E. Stajich interconnects Phylogenetics, Lineage, Monophyly, Phylum and Fungus in the investigation of issues within Evolutionary biology.

His work on Ecosystem, Biodiversity, Habitat and Transect as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Geography, bridging the gap between disciplines. His research integrates issues of Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides in his study of Genetics. His research investigates the connection between Phylogenetic tree and topics such as Taxon that intersect with problems in Clade.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Fungi in the Marine Environment: Open Questions and Unsolved Problems. (59 citations)
  • Diversity of cytosine methylation across the fungal tree of life. (49 citations)
  • Threats Posed by the Fungal Kingdom to Humans, Wildlife, and Agriculture. (45 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Fungus
  • DNA

His main research concerns Genome, Evolutionary biology, Gene, Ecology and Fungus. To a larger extent, Jason E. Stajich studies Genetics with the aim of understanding Genome. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Taxon, Genome evolution, Adaptation and Phylogenetic tree.

His Phylogenetic tree study combines topics in areas such as Phylogenetics, Genomic organization and Metagenomics. His study in the fields of Biodiversity and Marine ecosystem under the domain of Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Geography and Phytoplankton. His study in the field of Species name and Ailanthus altissima also crosses realms of Magnaporthe and Pyricularia graminis-tritici.
