Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Genome

Maximilian J. Telford focuses on Zoology, Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Panarthropoda and Arthropod. His research in Zoology intersects with topics in Monophyly, Xenacoelomorpha, Myriochelata, Xenoturbella and Ecdysozoa. His work is connected to Gene, Phylogenetic tree, Genetic code, Homology and Sequence analysis, as a part of Genetics.

His study ties his expertise on Phylogenetics together with the subject of Evolutionary biology. His Panarthropoda research includes themes of Sister group and Tardigrada. His work deals with themes such as Genome wide analysis and Burgess Shale, which intersect with Arthropod.

His most cited work include:

  • TranslatorX: multiple alignment of nucleotide sequences guided by amino acid translations (842 citations)
  • Deuterostome phylogeny reveals monophyletic chordates and the new phylum Xenoturbellida (429 citations)
  • Acoelomorph flatworms are deuterostomes related to Xenoturbella (326 citations)

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

Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Zoology, Genetics and Phylogenetic tree are his primary areas of study. His studies in Evolutionary biology integrate themes in fields like Sister group, Phylum, Mesozoa, Bilateria and Ecdysozoa. His Phylogenetics course of study focuses on Genome and Mitochondrial DNA.

The Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Arthropod, Xenacoelomorpha, Panarthropoda, Xenoturbella and Ambulacraria. His work in Gene, Sequence analysis, Genetic code, Homology and Amino acid are all subfields of Genetics research. His Phylogenetic tree research integrates issues from Stop codon, Computational biology, Inference and Ctenophora.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Evolutionary biology (41.38%)
  • Phylogenetics (32.76%)
  • Zoology (25.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (41.38%)
  • Computational biology (10.34%)
  • Phylogenetics (32.76%)

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

Maximilian J. Telford mainly investigates Evolutionary biology, Computational biology, Phylogenetics, Phylogenetic tree and Cell lineage. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Orthonectida, Mesozoa, Dicyemida, Bilateria and Ecdysozoa. His Bilateria research incorporates elements of Lophotrochozoa, Paraphyly, Monophyly and Deuterostome.

His study on Computational biology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Inference and related Clade,
  • Phylogenomics which is related to area like Transcriptome Sequencing. His Phylogenetics study is associated with Gene. Maximilian J. Telford has researched Phylogenetic tree in several fields, including Empirical research and Ctenophora.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mitigating Anticipated Effects of Systematic Errors Supports Sister-Group Relationship between Xenacoelomorpha and Ambulacraria. (47 citations)
  • A software tool 'CroCo' detects pervasive cross-species contamination in next generation sequencing data. (38 citations)
  • Phylogenetic tree building in the genomic age. (35 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Genome

Maximilian J. Telford mostly deals with Xenacoelomorpha, Phylogenetic tree, Computational biology, Evolutionary biology and Ambulacraria. His Xenacoelomorpha study combines topics in areas such as Posterior commissure, Anterior commissure, Statocyst, Anatomy and Nervous system. His work carried out in the field of Phylogenetic tree brings together such families of science as Adaptation, Phylogenetics and Identification.

His Phylogenetics research integrates issues from Genome and Inference. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lophotrochozoa, Orthonectida, Polyphyly, Annelid and Bilateria. His studies in Ambulacraria integrate themes in fields like Empirical research and Ctenophora.
