1988 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Zebrafish, Gene, Genome and Gene duplication. Genetics is closely attributed to Evolutionary biology in his work. His studies deal with areas such as Mutation, Gene map, Molecular biology, Cell biology and Regulation of gene expression as well as Zebrafish.
His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Paraxial mesoderm, Anatomy and Somatic cell. His research investigates the connection between Gene and topics such as Function that intersect with problems in MHC class I, Major histocompatibility complex, Receptor and Peptide sequence. His Gene duplication study incorporates themes from Pleiotropy, Human genome, Hox gene, Subfunctionalization and Pseudogene.
His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Zebrafish, Gene, Cell biology and Genome. His research in Gene duplication, Gene mapping, Vertebrate, Mutant and Locus are components of Genetics. The various areas that he examines in his Gene duplication study include Phylogenetics and Subfunctionalization.
His Zebrafish research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mutation, Molecular biology, Regulation of gene expression and Hox gene. The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Drosophila melanogaster, Anatomy and Mesoderm. His study looks at the relationship between Genome and topics such as Evolutionary biology, which overlap with Spotted gar and Lineage.
His primary scientific interests are in Gene, Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Zebrafish and Genome. John H. Postlethwait has included themes like Cavefish and Xiphophorus in his Gene study. His Evolutionary biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Spotted gar, Esox, Lineage and Genetic architecture.
His research in Lineage intersects with topics in Neofunctionalization and Subfunctionalization. His studies in Zebrafish integrate themes in fields like Mutation, Computational biology, Gonad and Cell biology. His work on Signal transduction as part of general Cell biology study is frequently connected to Intestinal epithelium, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Gene, Zebrafish, Genome and Hypotonia. John H. Postlethwait focuses mostly in the field of Gene, narrowing it down to topics relating to Computational biology and, in certain cases, Three-spined stickleback, Conserved sequence, Danio, DECIPHER and Molecular Sequence Annotation. The various areas that he examines in his Zebrafish study include Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Gonad, Protein kinase A and Cell biology.
When carried out as part of a general Cell biology research project, his work on Signal transduction is frequently linked to work in Podocyte, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Genome research includes themes of Evolutionary biology and SPARCL1. His Hypotonia study combines topics in areas such as Missense mutation, Intellectual disability, Neurodevelopmental disorder, Ataxia and Leukodystrophy.
