What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Genus
- Ecology
Matt Friedman mainly focuses on Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Zoology, Actinopterygii and Biodiversity.
His studies deal with areas such as Genetic Speciation, Phanerozoic and Cretaceous as well as Ecology.
Matt Friedman has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Taxon and Percomorpha.
His work deals with themes such as Actinistia, Skull, Sister group and Crown, which intersect with Zoology.
His studies in Actinopterygii integrate themes in fields like Acanthomorpha, Molecular clock and Halibut.
His Biodiversity study incorporates themes from Paleontology, Series, Adaptive radiation and Macroevolution.
His most cited work include:
- Resolution of ray-finned fish phylogeny and timing of diversification (629 citations)
- Phylogeny and tempo of diversification in the superradiation of spiny-rayed fishes (316 citations)
- A new time-scale for ray-finned fish evolution (270 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Matt Friedman focuses on Paleontology, Evolutionary biology, Devonian, Zoology and Taxon.
In his study, Mesozoic is inextricably linked to Adaptive radiation, which falls within the broad field of Paleontology.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ecology and Percomorpha.
His Zoology research includes elements of Sister group, Actinopterygii, Lineage, Monophyly and Flatfish.
His Taxon research focuses on Clade and how it connects with Genus.
His work on Paleogene as part of his general Cretaceous study is frequently connected to Extinction event, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (48.15%)
- Evolutionary biology (25.93%)
- Devonian (24.44%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Paleontology (48.15%)
- Evolutionary biology (25.93%)
- Paleogene (13.33%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Evolutionary biology, Paleogene, Cretaceous and Ecology.
His work in Paleontology addresses issues such as Pelagic zone, which are connected to fields such as Evolution of fish and Morphometrics.
The various areas that he examines in his Evolutionary biology study include Actinopterygii, Synapomorphy, Clade and Teleostei.
Many of his research projects under Clade are closely connected to Extant taxon with Extant taxon, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
His study looks at the intersection of Cretaceous and topics like Cenozoic with Body size, Mesozoic and Adaptive radiation.
His Endemism and Reef study in the realm of Ecology interacts with subjects such as Waxing, Diversity and Boundary.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- An inverse latitudinal gradient in speciation rate for marine fishes (235 citations)
- Explosive diversification of marine fishes at the Cretaceous-Palaeogene boundary. (72 citations)
- Explosive diversification of marine fishes at the Cretaceous-Palaeogene boundary. (72 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Paleontology
- Genus
- Ecology
Matt Friedman mainly investigates Paleogene, Cretaceous, Paleontology, Cenozoic and Extinction event.
His work deals with themes such as Evolutionary biology and Taxon, which intersect with Paleogene.
His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Euteleostei and Synapomorphy.
His Paleontology research includes themes of Reef, Flora and Fauna.
His Cenozoic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Adaptive radiation, Mesozoic and Body size.
A majority of his Extinction event research is a blend of other scientific areas, such as Pelagic zone, Evolution of fish, Morphometrics, Clade and Acanthomorpha.
