The fields of study he is best known for:
His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Population genetics, Haplotype and Haplogroup D-M15.
His work is connected to Genetic marker, Y chromosome, Allele frequency, Human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup and Locus, as a part of Genetics.
His Allele frequency research includes elements of Microsatellite and Genetic variation.
His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Human genetic variation, Human genome, Gene flow and Mutation.
His work carried out in the field of Population genetics brings together such families of science as Human biology, Genetic variability, Statistical genetics, Behavioural genetics and Genetic drift.
His Haplogroup D-M15 research incorporates themes from Haplogroup IJ and Haplogroup.
His most cited work include:
- The history and geography of human genes (3270 citations)
- Phylogenetic analysis. Models and estimation procedures. (2093 citations)
- CULTURAL TRANSMISSION AND EVOLUTION: A QUANTITATIVE APPROACH (1971 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza mostly deals with Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Genetic marker, Gene and Allele.
Many of his studies on Genetics apply to Molecular biology as well.
Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza combines subjects such as Genetic drift, Genetic variation, Population genetics and Natural selection with his study of Evolutionary biology.
His Allele research focuses on Allele frequency and Microsatellite.
The Locus study combines topics in areas such as Chromosome 13 and Gene mapping.
His research links Y chromosome with Haplotype.
He most often published in these fields:
- Genetics (40.69%)
- Evolutionary biology (24.73%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Haplogroup, Haplotype and Genetic variation.
Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Human genetic variation, Diversity, Natural selection, Founder effect and Genetic drift.
His Genetics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Population genetics.
His Haplogroup research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gene pool, Haplogroup D-M15, Gene flow and Human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup.
His study in Haplotype is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biological dispersal and Archaeology.
In his work, Geographical distance is strongly intertwined with Genetic diversity, which is a subfield of Genetic variation.
Between 2001 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Worldwide human relationships inferred from genome-wide patterns of variation. (1597 citations)
- A Human Genome Diversity Cell Line Panel (849 citations)
- Support from the relationship of genetic and geographic distance in human populations for a serial founder effect originating in Africa (837 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His primary areas of investigation include Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Haplogroup, Haplogroup D-M15 and Haplogroup L3.
