Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Archaeology

Martin B. Richards mainly investigates Genetics, Haplogroup L3, Mitochondrial DNA, Evolutionary biology and Haplogroup H. Genetics and Ethnology are commonly linked in his work. His research in Haplogroup L3 intersects with topics in Ecology, Biological dispersal, Founder effect and Human settlement.

His Mitochondrial DNA research includes themes of Population genetics, Phylogenetic tree, Genome, Hypervariable region and Mutation. His Evolutionary biology research incorporates elements of Haplogroup M, mtDNA control region, Paleontology, Archaeogenetics and Chalcolithic. In his study, Lineage and Prehistory is inextricably linked to Demic diffusion, which falls within the broad field of Haplogroup H.

His most cited work include:

  • Mitochondrial portraits of human populations using median networks. (942 citations)
  • Tracing European founder lineages in the Near Eastern mtDNA pool. (841 citations)
  • Tracing European founder lineages in the Near Eastern mtDNA pool. (841 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Mitochondrial DNA, Haplogroup, Evolutionary biology and Phylogeography. In his work, Founder effect is strongly intertwined with Population genetics, which is a subfield of Genetics. The various areas that Martin B. Richards examines in his Mitochondrial DNA study include Genealogy, Phylogenetics, Ethnology and Genome.

The concepts of his Haplogroup study are interwoven with issues in Paleontology, Peninsula, Middle East, Biological dispersal and Last Glacial Maximum. His study in Evolutionary biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Lineage, Molecular clock, Cambridge Reference Sequence, Sequence and Prehistory. His Haplogroup H research integrates issues from Haplogroup M and Demic diffusion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (55.48%)
  • Mitochondrial DNA (41.78%)
  • Haplogroup (32.19%)

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

  • Biological dispersal (25.34%)
  • Phylogeography (23.29%)
  • Genetics (55.48%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biological dispersal, Phylogeography, Genetics, Ancient DNA and Haplogroup. The Biological dispersal study combines topics in areas such as Glacial period, Last Glacial Maximum, Holocene, Ecology and Human migration. His Phylogeography research incorporates themes from Evolutionary biology, Mainland China and Archaeogenetics.

His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Most recent common ancestor, Phylogenetics, Human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup L3 and Human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup. His study on Mitochondrial DNA, Haplotype and Genetic linkage is often connected to Tuberculosis and Leukotriene-A4 hydrolase as part of broader study in Genetics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Paleontology and Period in addition to Haplogroup.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genomic insights into the origin of farming in the ancient Near East (435 citations)
  • Genetic and archaeological perspectives on the initial modern human colonization of southern Asia (189 citations)
  • Genetic and archaeological perspectives on the initial modern human colonization of southern Asia (189 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Archaeology

Martin B. Richards mostly deals with Biological dispersal, Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Human migration and Genealogy. Martin B. Richards has researched Biological dispersal in several fields, including Glacial period, Paleontology, Paleogenetics, Phylogeography and Haplogroup. His work deals with themes such as Period, Mitochondrial Eve, Most recent common ancestor, Haplogroup L3 and Last Glacial Maximum, which intersect with Haplogroup.

His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genomics, Human mitochondrial genetics, Cambridge Reference Sequence, Sequence and Consensus sequence. Martin B. Richards combines subjects such as Bronze Age, Neanderthal and Archaeology with his study of Human migration. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Population genetics, Founder effect, Mitochondrial DNA, Ashkenazi jews and Judaism.
