Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

Maria L. Ghirardi mostly deals with Hydrogenase, Biochemistry, Photosynthesis, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Botany. Her research on Hydrogenase frequently links to adjacent areas such as Hydrogen production. Her studies deal with areas such as Inorganic chemistry, Platinum and Primary energy as well as Hydrogen production.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Green algae, Algae and Bioreactor in addition to Photosynthesis. The various areas that Maria L. Ghirardi examines in her Chlamydomonas reinhardtii study include Biophysics and Photosystem I, Photosystem II. In general Biomass, her work in Culture of microalgae in hatcheries and Nannochloropsis is often linked to Raceway and Petroleum linking many areas of study.

Her most cited work include:

  • Microalgal triacylglycerols as feedstocks for biofuel production: perspectives and advances (2800 citations)
  • Comparing photosynthetic and photovoltaic efficiencies and recognizing the potential for improvement. (1011 citations)
  • SUSTAINED PHOTOBIOLOGICAL HYDROGEN GAS PRODUCTION UPON REVERSIBLE INACTIVATION OF OXYGEN EVOLUTION IN THE GREEN ALGA CHLAMYDOMONAS REINHARDTII (862 citations)

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

Maria L. Ghirardi mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Hydrogenase, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Photosynthesis and Hydrogen production. Her work on Mutant, Hyda and Photosystem II as part of general Biochemistry study is frequently linked to Strain, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her research in Hydrogenase tackles topics such as Electron transport chain which are related to areas like Photochemistry.

The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii study combines topics in areas such as Biophysics, Chlorophyta, Chlorophyceae, Photosystem I and Chlamydomonas. Her Photosynthesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cyanobacteria and Green algae. Her Hydrogen production research includes themes of Environmental chemistry, Biomass fuels and Biotechnology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (48.25%)
  • Hydrogenase (45.61%)
  • Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (43.86%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2019)?

  • Biochemistry (48.25%)
  • Photosynthesis (35.96%)
  • Hydrogen production (28.07%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Biochemistry, Photosynthesis, Hydrogen production, Hydrogenase and Synechocystis are her primary areas of study. Her study in Ferredoxin, Metabolism, Mutant, Chlamydomonas and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii falls under the purview of Biochemistry. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cyanobacteria and Biophysics.

Her work is dedicated to discovering how Hydrogen production, Green algae are connected with Chlorophyll, Photosynthetic bacteria, Photobioreactor, Environmental chemistry and Biofuel and other disciplines. She integrates Hydrogenase with Strain in her study. Her study in the field of Algae is also linked to topics like Limiting.

Between 2013 and 2019, her most popular works were:

  • Engineering photosynthetic organisms for the production of biohydrogen (75 citations)
  • Phosphoketolase pathway contributes to carbon metabolism in cyanobacteria (49 citations)
  • Glycogen Synthesis and Metabolite Overflow Contribute to Energy Balancing in Cyanobacteria (46 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • DNA

Her primary areas of investigation include Photosynthesis, Cyanobacteria, Algae, Botany and Synechocystis. Her Photosynthesis research is included under the broader classification of Biochemistry. She combines subjects such as Rhodobacter and Agar, Bacteria with her study of Algae.

Her study in Synechocystis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biophysics, Overflow metabolism and Glycogen, Glycogen synthase. Her research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Chlorophyta and Hydrogen production. Her work on Genetic traits is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Hydrogenase.
