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

Nick D. Read focuses on Aspergillus fumigatus, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Cell biology and Neurospora crassa. His Aspergillus fumigatus research incorporates themes from Transcription factor, Hyphal growth and Aspergillus. His studies examine the connections between Biochemistry and genetics, as well as such issues in Calcium, with regards to Membrane protein.

Nick D. Read is studying Hypha, which is a component of Microbiology. The various areas that Nick D. Read examines in his Neurospora crassa study include Germ tube, Zoology, Cell fusion and Cell polarity. His Fluorescence research focuses on subjects like Cell sorting, which are linked to Biophysics.
