  • 2023 - Research.com Environmental Sciences in United States Leader Award

Overview

John I. Hedges was affiliated with the University of Washington in the United States. Their research contributions spanned several key areas within the biological sciences, as reflected in their publications and collaboration history.

Hedges published work in both broad and specialized fields, including:

  • Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology
  • Environmental Science

Within these fields, their work focused on specific subfields such as:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Ecology

The research topics covered by Hedges included:

  • Molecular Biology Techniques and Applications
  • Bacteriophages and microbial interactions

Among their contributions to scientific literature, Hedges co-authored the paper titled "P514: High-resolution analysis of pathogenic trinucleotide and hexanucleotide repeats, copy number changes, SNVs and INDELs using flexible, easy-to-use fragment sizing instrumentation", published in 2023 in the journal Genetics in Medicine Open.

Their frequent co-authors comprised researchers such as Adrián Lara, Steven Partin, Connor A. Parker, and John Milligan. This suggests collaborative work in molecular biology and related research areas.
