2016 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Primate

Ecology, Foraging, Primate, Botany and Trichromacy are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Ecology study are interwoven with issues in Zoology and Color vision. His Foraging research incorporates elements of Perception, Sensory threshold, Frugivore, Appendage and Glabrous skin.

His Primate study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Somatosensory system, Prehensile tail, Anatomy, Photopigment and Tactile perception. His work deals with themes such as Tropical climate and Toughness, which intersect with Botany. The Trichromacy study combines topics in areas such as Seed dispersal and Biogeography.

His most cited work include:

  • Diet and the evolution of human amylase gene copy number variation. (977 citations)
  • Ecological importance of trichromatic vision to primates (361 citations)
  • Mechanical Defences to Herbivory (334 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Primate, Foraging, Evolutionary biology and Zoology. While working on this project, Nathaniel J. Dominy studies both Ecology and Context. His work on Lemur as part of general Primate study is frequently linked to Auditory brainstem response, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His study in Foraging is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Perception, Functional morphology, Enamel paint, Sensory cue and Consilience. Nathaniel J. Dominy combines subjects such as Microbiome, Gene and Nocturnal with his study of Evolutionary biology. His work carried out in the field of Rainforest brings together such families of science as Convergent evolution, Herbivore and Agroforestry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (41.61%)
  • Primate (19.71%)
  • Foraging (17.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (15.33%)
  • Microbiome (5.11%)
  • Primate (19.71%)

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

Nathaniel J. Dominy mainly focuses on Evolutionary biology, Microbiome, Primate, Ecology and Foraging. His Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Genome, Gene, Human microbiome, Nocturnal and Opsin. His Microbiome research incorporates themes from crAssphage, Human virome and Phylogeography, Phylogenetics.

His work on Tarsier as part of general Primate research is frequently linked to Experiential learning, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. As part of his studies on Ecology, Nathaniel J. Dominy frequently links adjacent subjects like Bipedalism. His studies in Foraging integrate themes in fields like Food resources, Replicate, Heavy metals and Hair keratin.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Evolutionary trends in host physiology outweigh dietary niche in structuring primate gut microbiomes. (92 citations)
  • Global phylogeography and ancient evolution of the widespread human gut virus crAssphage (71 citations)
  • Plasticity in the Human Gut Microbiome Defies Evolutionary Constraints. (40 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Paleontology

His primary areas of investigation include Microbiome, Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Ecology and Metagenomics. His Microbiome research is multidisciplinary, relying on both crAssphage, Genome, Human virome, Primate and Phylogeography. His research in Primate focuses on subjects like Human gut, which are connected to Foraging.

His Evolutionary biology research includes elements of Tarsius, Human microbiome, Nocturnal and Predation. Nathaniel J. Dominy performs integrative study on Context and Ecology. His Moonlight study in the realm of Ecology connects with subjects such as Marginal value.
