Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

His main research concerns Genetics, Genome, Phylogenetics, Evolutionary biology and Phylogenetic tree. Mark A. Ragan frequently studies issues relating to Computational biology and Genetics. His Genome research is under the purview of Gene.

His research integrates issues of Dermocystidium, Taxonomy, Multiple sequence alignment and Ichthyophonus in his study of Phylogenetics. The various areas that he examines in his Evolutionary biology study include Ecology, Protein domain, Synteny, Sequence and Neofunctionalization. His Phylogenetic tree research includes themes of Ribosomal RNA, Combinatorics, Botany and Bacterial genome size.

His most cited work include:

  • Chytridiomycosis causes amphibian mortality associated with population declines in the rain forests of Australia and Central America (1527 citations)
  • The complete genome of the crenarchaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus P2. (697 citations)
  • Highways of gene sharing in prokaryotes (446 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome, Computational biology, Gene and Phylogenetic tree. His Phylogenetics, Genetic transfer, Ribosomal RNA, Sulfolobus solfataricus and Horizontal gene transfer investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. His research in Ribosomal RNA intersects with topics in Botany and Ribosomal DNA.

His Genome research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary biology, Multiple sequence alignment and Symbiodinium. His Computational biology study also includes fields such as

  • Bioinformatics, which have a strong connection to Breast cancer,
  • Inference and related Gene regulatory network. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cancer and Algae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (37.19%)
  • Genome (25.90%)
  • Computational biology (22.31%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Genome (25.90%)
  • Computational biology (22.31%)
  • Gene (22.31%)

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

Mark A. Ragan mainly investigates Genome, Computational biology, Gene, Genetics and Evolutionary biology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phylogenomics, Dinoflagellate and Symbiodinium in addition to Genome. He interconnects Scalability, Bioinformatics, Inference, k-mer and Gene regulatory network in the investigation of issues within Computational biology.

His study focuses on the intersection of Gene and fields such as Cancer with connections in the field of Mutation and Transcription factor. Genetics is a component of his Genetic transfer, Phylogenetics, Bacterial genome size, Plastid and FASTA format studies. His Evolutionary biology research incorporates themes from Coral reef, Ecological niche, Genome size and Coral.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Introducing BASE: the Biomes of Australian Soil Environments soil microbial diversity database (112 citations)
  • Supervised, semi-supervised and unsupervised inference of gene regulatory networks (105 citations)
  • Next-generation phylogenomics. (105 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Mark A. Ragan focuses on Genetics, Genome, Computational biology, Gene and Evolutionary biology. His research investigates the link between Genetics and topics such as Multiple sequence alignment that cross with problems in Alignment-free sequence analysis. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phylogenomics, Phylogenetics and PALB2.

His studies examine the connections between Computational biology and genetics, as well as such issues in Inference, with regards to Gene regulatory network, Hopfield network, Cluster analysis and Pruning. His studies in Gene integrate themes in fields like Cancer and Targeted therapy. His Genome evolution study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as k-mer and Phylogenetic tree.
