Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Lewis G. Tilney is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Actin

Cell biology is closely attributed to Intracellular parasite in his work. His research ties Intracellular and Intracellular parasite together. In his works, he conducts interdisciplinary research on Intracellular and Cytoplasm. Lewis G. Tilney integrates many fields in his works, including Cytoplasm and Microtubule. He performs integrative study on Microtubule and Axoneme in his works. Lewis G. Tilney connects Axoneme with Tubulin in his study. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Cell biology and Tubulin. Lewis G. Tilney undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Genetics and Molecular biology through his research. Molecular biology and Genetics are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research.

His most cited work include:

  • Actin filaments and the growth, movement, and spread of the intracellular bacterial parasite, Listeria monocytogenes. (1199 citations)
  • A Plastid of Probable Green Algal Origin in Apicomplexan Parasites (684 citations)
  • Organization of an actin filament-membrane complex. Filament polarity and membrane attachment in the microvilli of intestinal epithelial cells. (568 citations)

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

His Cell biology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Microtubule. In his work, Lewis G. Tilney performs multidisciplinary research in Biophysics and Genetics. His Genetics study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Protein filament. Lewis G. Tilney conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Protein filament and Microfilament. Lewis G. Tilney conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Microfilament and Myosin through his research. His Biophysics research extends to the thematically linked field of Myosin. Biochemistry is closely attributed to Membrane in his work. As part of his studies on Membrane, he often connects relevant subjects like Biochemistry.
