2006 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
His primary areas of study are Myxococcus xanthus, Genetics, Mutant, 16S ribosomal RNA and Cell biology. His Myxococcus xanthus research is mostly focused on the topic Myxococcaceae. His work investigates the relationship between Mutant and topics such as Gene product that intersect with problems in Fusion gene, Molecular biology and Protein biosynthesis.
His research integrates issues of Carotenoid and Gram-positive bacteria in his study of 16S ribosomal RNA. Cell biology is frequently linked to Biochemistry in his study. His work on Transcription, Genome evolution and Horizontal gene transfer as part of general Gene study is frequently connected to Heme binding, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
His scientific interests lie mostly in Myxococcus xanthus, Biochemistry, Mutant, Genetics and Gene. His Myxococcus xanthus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Molecular biology, Chemotaxis and Motility, Cell biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cell, Multicellular organism and Cell signaling.
His research on Cell biology also deals with topics like
Lawrence J. Shimkets mainly focuses on Myxococcus xanthus, Multicellular organism, Mutant, Cell biology and Cell. His study connects Motility and Myxococcus xanthus. His research in Multicellular organism intersects with topics in Biophysics and Self-organization.
His research investigates the connection with Mutant and areas like Ecology which intersect with concerns in Isolation and Culture independent. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Protein Sorting Signals, Signal peptide and Bacteria. His Cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Wild type and Chemotaxis.
Lawrence J. Shimkets focuses on Myxococcus xanthus, Gene, Microbiology, Mutant and Motility. He performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Myxococcus xanthus and Programmed cell death via his papers. His Multicellular organism study deals with Biological dispersal intersecting with Ecology.
His work carried out in the field of Alcohol dehydrogenase brings together such families of science as Phospholipase and Lipid droplet. His Axenic research integrates issues from Cell biology, Streptomyces coelicolor, Aerial mycelium formation and Hypha. His research on Adaptation concerns the broader Genetics.
