What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Gene
- Biochemistry
- Cell membrane
Michael Whitaker mostly deals with Calcium, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Biophysics and Sea urchin.
His Calcium research includes themes of Inositol trisphosphate, Microinjection and Second messenger system.
His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Cell cycle, Meiosis and Molecular biology.
The Inositol and Inositol phosphate research Michael Whitaker does as part of his general Biochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Pronuclear migration, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
His studies in Biophysics integrate themes in fields like Exocytosis, Membrane and Human fertilization.
The concepts of his Sea urchin study are interwoven with issues in Oocyte activation, Signal transduction and Intracellular.
His most cited work include:
- Calcium and cell cycle control. (374 citations)
- Calcium at fertilization and in early development. (357 citations)
- Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate microinjection activates sea urchin eggs (301 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Michael Whitaker mainly focuses on Cell biology, Calcium, Sea urchin, Mitosis and Biochemistry.
His work deals with themes such as Sperm, Cell cycle, Exocytosis and Inositol trisphosphate, which intersect with Cell biology.
The Calcium study combines topics in areas such as Biophysics, Intracellular and Human fertilization.
His study looks at the relationship between Sea urchin and fields such as Inositol, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
His Mitosis study also includes fields such as
- Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 together with Cyclin B,
- Polo-like kinase that intertwine with fields like S-phase-promoting factor.
His work in Biochemistry addresses subjects such as EGTA, which are connected to disciplines such as Lytechinus variegatus.

Michael Whitaker combines subjects such as DNA synthesis, DNA replication and Cyclin B with his study of Cell biology.
His Spindle checkpoint study incorporates themes from Drosophila melanogaster, Function and Artificial intelligence.
Michael Whitaker works in the field of Calcium, focusing on Calcium in biology in particular.
His Cell cycle research focuses on subjects like Oocyte activation, which are linked to Sperm.
His Mad2 study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mitotic exit, Securin, CDC20 and Mitosis.
Between 2008 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Genetically encoded probes for measurement of intracellular calcium. (81 citations)
- Concise Review: Cell Therapies: The Route to Widespread Adoption (28 citations)
- Recruitment of Cdc20 to the kinetochore requires BubR1 but not Mad2 in Drosophila melanogaster. (26 citations)
