Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine

Her main research concerns Micronucleus test, Micronucleus, Genetics, Genotoxicity and Molecular biology. Her Micronucleus test research includes elements of DNA damage, Immunology and In vivo. Her study on Binucleated cells is often connected to Scoring criteria as part of broader study in Micronucleus.

In her work, Separase, Anaphase-promoting complex, Cohesin, Spindle checkpoint and Telophase is strongly intertwined with Cell biology, which is a subfield of Genetics. Her Genotoxicity study which covers Biomonitoring that intersects with Peripheral blood and Biomedical engineering. Her Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metaphase, Fluorescence in situ hybridization, Chromosome, Chromatid and Homologous chromosome.

Her most cited work include:

  • HUMN project: detailed description of the scoring criteria for the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay using isolated human lymphocyte cultures. (1021 citations)
  • An increased micronucleus frequency in peripheral blood lymphocytes predicts the risk of cancer in humans. (770 citations)
  • Molecular mechanisms of micronucleus, nucleoplasmic bridge and nuclear bud formation in mammalian and human cells (722 citations)

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

Micheline Kirsch-Volders mainly focuses on Micronucleus test, Molecular biology, Genetics, Micronucleus and Genotoxicity. Her work deals with themes such as DNA damage, Toxicology, Immunology, Lymphocyte and In vivo, which intersect with Micronucleus test. Her Toxicology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Physiology, Toxicity and Carcinogen.

As part of the same scientific family, Micheline Kirsch-Volders usually focuses on Molecular biology, concentrating on In vitro and intersecting with Pharmacology. Her work on Genetics is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Environmental exposure. Her study in the field of Aneugen and Binucleated cells also crosses realms of Scoring criteria.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Micronucleus test (38.26%)
  • Molecular biology (25.72%)
  • Genetics (25.40%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Micronucleus test (38.26%)
  • Carcinogen (9.32%)
  • Genotoxicity (14.79%)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Micronucleus test, Carcinogen, Genotoxicity, Micronucleus and Molecular biology. Her Micronucleus test research is multidisciplinary, relying on both DNA damage, Immunology, Buccal swab, Biomonitoring and In vivo. Her DNA damage research incorporates elements of Mitosis, Cell biology, DNA repair and Cytokinesis.

She studied Genotoxicity and Toxicology that intersect with Toxicity, Acute toxicity and Mammalian cell. She has researched Micronucleus in several fields, including Image Cytometry, Cell division and Lymphocyte. Her studies deal with areas such as Hybridization probe, Cell cycle, In vitro and Metaphase as well as Molecular biology.

Between 2011 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Assessing the carcinogenic potential of low-dose exposures to chemical mixtures in the environment: The challenge ahead (147 citations)
  • Causes of genome instability: the effect of low dose chemical exposures in modern society (76 citations)
  • Molecular mechanisms by which in vivo exposure to exogenous chemical genotoxic agents can lead to micronucleus formation in lymphocytes in vivo and ex vivo in humans (57 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Cancer
  • DNA

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Micronucleus test, Genetics, DNA damage, Genotoxicity and Carcinogen. Her research on Micronucleus test focuses in particular on Micronucleus. Her Micronucleus research integrates issues from Chromosome breakage, Image Cytometry and Bioinformatics.

Her DNA damage study incorporates themes from Carcinogenesis, Ex vivo, In vivo and Environmental exposure. Her Genotoxicity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Engineering ethics, Toxicology, Molecular biology, Cell cycle and Tissue damage. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cancer, Biophysics and Immunology.
