Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Gene expression

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paraxial mesoderm, Cell biology, Somite, Clock and wavefront model and Mesoderm. The various areas that Olivier Pourquié examines in his Paraxial mesoderm study include Segmentation and Somitogenesis. Olivier Pourquié works mostly in the field of Somitogenesis, limiting it down to topics relating to Regulation of gene expression and, in certain cases, Transcriptome, as a part of the same area of interest.

His studies deal with areas such as Embryonic stem cell and Cellular differentiation as well as Cell biology. His study on Somite is covered under Genetics. His Mesoderm research includes elements of NODAL and PAX3.

His most cited work include:

  • Sequence and comparative analysis of the chicken genome provide unique perspectives on vertebrate evolution (2193 citations)
  • Avian hairy Gene Expression Identifies a Molecular Clock Linked to Vertebrate Segmentation and Somitogenesis (792 citations)
  • FGF Signaling Controls Somite Boundary Position and Regulates Segmentation Clock Control of Spatiotemporal Hox Gene Activation (553 citations)

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

Olivier Pourquié focuses on Cell biology, Paraxial mesoderm, Genetics, Somitogenesis and Somite. The study incorporates disciplines such as Embryonic stem cell and Anatomy in addition to Cell biology. His Paraxial mesoderm research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Segmentation, FGF and mesoderm formation, Vertebrate and Clock and wavefront model.

His Somitogenesis research integrates issues from Regulation of gene expression, Retinoic acid and Body plan. His Somite study incorporates themes from Process and Compartment. His Wnt signaling pathway research incorporates elements of Developmental biology and Anaerobic glycolysis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (70.18%)
  • Paraxial mesoderm (59.27%)
  • Genetics (36.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Cell biology (70.18%)
  • Paraxial mesoderm (59.27%)
  • Induced pluripotent stem cell (13.09%)

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

Olivier Pourquié spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Paraxial mesoderm, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Skeletal muscle and Wnt signaling pathway. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Embryonic stem cell and Cellular differentiation. His Paraxial mesoderm research includes themes of Live cell imaging, Somite and Notochord.

His Somite research incorporates themes from FGF4, Segmentation, Artificial intelligence and In vivo. His Segmentation study combines topics in areas such as Mesoderm and Single-cell analysis. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Wnt signaling pathway, concentrating on Developmental biology and frequently concerns with MEDLINE and Medical research.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • In vitro characterization of the human segmentation clock (49 citations)
  • In vitro characterization of the human segmentation clock (49 citations)
  • SarcTrack: An Adaptable Software Tool for Efficient Large-Scale Analysis of Sarcomere Function in hiPSC-Cardiomyocytes (36 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Gene expression

His main research concerns Cell biology, Paraxial mesoderm, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Wnt signaling pathway and Biophysics. His study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hindlimb and Lateral plate mesoderm, Mesoderm. His research integrates issues of Phenotype, SOX2, Axis elongation, Cell fate determination and Somitogenesis in his study of Mesoderm.

The Paraxial mesoderm study combines topics in areas such as Somite, Embryo and Cell polarity. His work deals with themes such as Body Patterning, Vertebrate and Axial skeleton, which intersect with Somite. In his study, Single-cell analysis, Developmental biology and Segmentation is inextricably linked to Cellular differentiation, which falls within the broad field of Wnt signaling pathway.
