Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

Matthew B. Sullivan mainly investigates Ecology, Metagenomics, Genetics, Prochlorococcus and Genome. His Ecology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Microbial ecology. Specifically, his work in Metagenomics is concerned with the study of Human virome.

Matthew B. Sullivan studies Gene which is a part of Genetics. His work carried out in the field of Prochlorococcus brings together such families of science as Phylogenetics and Horizontal gene transfer. Matthew B. Sullivan does research in Genome, focusing on Genomics specifically.

His most cited work include:

  • Structure and function of the global ocean microbiome (1143 citations)
  • Community Genomics Among Stratified Microbial Assemblages in the Ocean's Interior (1045 citations)
  • Genome divergence in two Prochlorococcus ecotypes reflects oceanic niche differentiation (932 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Metagenomics, Genome, Ecology, Genetics and Gene. His Metagenomics research integrates issues from Ecology, Community structure and DNA sequencing. Matthew B. Sullivan interconnects Evolutionary biology, Virus and Computational biology in the investigation of issues within Genome.

His Ecology research incorporates themes from Deep sea and Microbial ecology. The Gene study which covers Prochlorococcus that intersects with Biophysics and Podoviridae. His Human virome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Microbiome and Immunology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Metagenomics (32.63%)
  • Genome (30.08%)
  • Ecology (27.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Ecology (27.54%)
  • Genome (30.08%)
  • Computational biology (15.68%)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Genome, Computational biology, Metagenomics and Ecosystem. His study in the field of Biogeochemical cycle and Anoxic waters is also linked to topics like Nitrogen cycle and Oxygen minimum zone. In the field of Gene and Genetics he studies Genome.

His Computational biology research includes elements of Viral evolution, Viral metagenomics, Human virome, DNA and In silico. His Metagenomics study incorporates themes from Evolutionary biology and Gene flow, Genetic variation. He combines subjects such as Host and Plankton with his study of Ecosystem.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Metabolic and biogeochemical consequences of viral infection in aquatic ecosystems. (46 citations)
  • The Gut Virome Database Reveals Age-Dependent Patterns of Virome Diversity in the Human Gut. (40 citations)
  • Discovery of several thousand highly diverse circular DNA viruses. (39 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

Matthew B. Sullivan spends much of his time researching Ecosystem, Metagenomics, Genome, Computational biology and Ecology. Matthew B. Sullivan has researched Ecosystem in several fields, including Ecology, Climate change, Environmental resource management and Plankton. His Metagenomics research is within the category of Gene.

Genome is a subfield of Genetics that Matthew B. Sullivan tackles. His Computational biology research focuses on Viral evolution and how it connects with RNA virus and DNA. The study incorporates disciplines such as Nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses, Giant Virus and Lytic cycle in addition to Ecology.
