Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • DNA

His primary scientific interests are in Phylogenetics, Ribosomal RNA, Phylogenetic tree, Genetics and Ecology. His research integrates issues of Biodiversity, Microbial ecology and Restriction fragment length polymorphism in his study of Phylogenetics. The concepts of his Ribosomal RNA study are interwoven with issues in Proteobacteria, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria and Ribosomal DNA.

His studies in Phylogenetic tree integrate themes in fields like Evolutionary biology, Minimal genome, Candidate division and Identification. His research investigates the connection with Genetics and areas like Computational biology which intersect with concerns in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, Human gastrointestinal tract and Intestinal mucosa. Norman R. Pace has researched Ecology in several fields, including Microorganism and Archaea.

His most cited work include:

  • Molecular-phylogenetic characterization of microbial community imbalances in human inflammatory bowel diseases (2956 citations)
  • Rapid determination of 16S ribosomal RNA sequences for phylogenetic analyses (2443 citations)
  • A Molecular View of Microbial Diversity and the Biosphere (2249 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in RNA, RNase P, Ribosomal RNA, Biochemistry and Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Molecular biology, Protein tertiary structure and Protein secondary structure as well as RNA. The various areas that he examines in his RNase P study include Non-coding RNA and Ribozyme.

His Ribosomal RNA study incorporates themes from Phylogenetics, 16S ribosomal RNA and Microbiology. The Phylogenetics study combines topics in areas such as Proteobacteria, Ecology, Biodiversity and Microbial ecology. His Phylogenetic tree research incorporates elements of Evolutionary biology and Identification, Botany.

He most often published in these fields:

  • RNA (30.69%)
  • RNase P (30.32%)
  • Ribosomal RNA (27.80%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2021)?

  • Ecology (17.69%)
  • Microbiology (10.47%)
  • Genetics (24.19%)

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

Norman R. Pace spends much of his time researching Ecology, Microbiology, Genetics, Metagenomics and Phylogenetics. His Ecology research integrates issues from Cyanobacteria, Microbial mat, Microbial population biology, Microbial ecology and Bacteroidetes. Much of his study explores Genetics relationship to Molecular biology.

Norman R. Pace combines subjects such as Microbiome, Computational biology, Sequence analysis and Immunology with his study of Metagenomics. His Phylogenetics study combines topics in areas such as Ribosomal RNA, Biodiversity, Prokaryotic cells and Phylogenetic tree. His Phylogenetic tree research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Evolutionary biology and Biological evolution.

Between 2007 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Disease phenotype and genotype are associated with shifts in intestinal-associated microbiota in inflammatory bowel diseases (447 citations)
  • Minimum information about a marker gene sequence (MIMARKS) and minimum information about any (x) sequence (MIxS) specifications. (434 citations)
  • Opportunistic pathogens enriched in showerhead biofilms (387 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • DNA

Metagenomics, Ecology, Microbiology, Phylogenetics and Genetics are his primary areas of study. His Metagenomics research includes elements of Microbial ecology, Sequence analysis, Human microbiome and Computational biology. Norman R. Pace interconnects Microorganism, Microbial composition and Microbial mat in the investigation of issues within Ecology.

While the research belongs to areas of Microbiology, he spends his time largely on the problem of Staphylococcus, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Staphylococcus epidermidis, Ribosomal RNA, Pseudomonas and Clostridiales. His Phylogenetics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Evolutionary biology, Biodiversity, Genome and Phylogenetic tree. His studies link Immunology with Genetics.
