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

  • Bacteria
  • Law
  • Gene

Mark A. Webber mainly investigates Computational biology, Genome, DNA sequencing, Whole genome sequencing and Antibiotic resistance. His Computational biology study also includes

  • Transposable element, which have a strong connection to Novel gene and Phenotype,
  • Gene that connect with fields like Raw meat, Salmonella and Cephalosporin. In general DNA sequencing, his work in Minion and Nanopore sequencing is often linked to Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 linking many areas of study.

The concepts of his Antibiotic resistance study are interwoven with issues in Adaptation, Drug export, Cefotaxime and Drug resistance. His Antibiotics study is concerned with the field of Microbiology as a whole. He interconnects Bacteria, Biofilm, Escherichia coli, Salmonella Indiana and Efflux in the investigation of issues within Microbiology.
