Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His main research concerns Xenopus, Cell biology, Molecular biology, Cytoskeleton and Acetylcholine receptor. His research in Xenopus intersects with topics in Staining, Antisense RNA, Mesoderm, Slug and Whole mount. His studies deal with areas such as Immunocytochemistry and Protein filament as well as Cell biology.

His Molecular biology research integrates issues from Neural crest cell migration, Neural crest, Neural fold and Catenin. His Intermediate filament study, which is part of a larger body of work in Cytoskeleton, is frequently linked to Midbody and Cortical microtubule, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work deals with themes such as Crystallography and Membrane, which intersect with Acetylcholine receptor.

His most cited work include:

  • Epithelial-mesenchymal transition: a cancer researcher's conceptual friend and foe. (430 citations)
  • A whole-mount immunocytochemical analysis of the expression of the intermediate filament protein vimentin in Xenopus (382 citations)
  • Regulation of Wnt Signaling by Sox Proteins: XSox17α/β and XSox3 Physically Interact with β-catenin (311 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Xenopus, Molecular biology, Intermediate filament and Mathematics education. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Protein filament, Intermediate filament organization and Cytoskeleton. His Xenopus research includes elements of Wnt signaling pathway, Transcription factor, Nodal signaling, Mesoderm and Embryo.

His Molecular biology research incorporates themes from Immunocytochemistry, Morpholino, Gastrulation, Armadillo repeats and Myocyte. His Intermediate filament research incorporates elements of Biophysics, Microfilament, Desmin and Keratin. The various areas that he examines in his Mathematics education study include Curriculum and Chemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (35.21%)

  • Curriculum (9.15%)
  • Mathematics education (11.97%)
  • Context (7.04%)

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

Michael W. Klymkowsky spends much of his time researching Curriculum, Mathematics education, Context, Cell biology and Chemistry. His Curriculum research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Science instruction, Science curriculum, Presentation, Formative assessment and Engineering physics. His research investigates the connection between Mathematics education and topics such as Curriculum development that intersect with issues in Instructional design.

Michael W. Klymkowsky regularly links together related areas like Xenopus in his Cell biology studies. The study incorporates disciplines such as Gene expression, Intracellular and Embryo in addition to Xenopus. As part of one scientific family, Michael W. Klymkowsky deals mainly with the area of Chemistry, narrowing it down to issues related to the Construct, and often Learning theory and Computational biology.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Chemistry, Life, the Universe, and Everything: A New Approach to General Chemistry, and a Model for Curriculum Reform (84 citations)
  • Development and Assessment of a Molecular Structure and Properties Learning Progression. (75 citations)
  • The Trouble with Chemical Energy: Why Understanding Bond Energies Requires an Interdisciplinary Systems Approach. (53 citations)

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