Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Circadian rhythm, Drosophila Protein, Pigment dispersing factor and Drosophila melanogaster. His Neuroscience study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lineage and Function. His Circadian rhythm research integrates issues from Mutant, Period and Rhythm.

His Drosophila Protein study deals with Gene expression profiling intersecting with Transcription factor. His work deals with themes such as Neuropeptide and Endocrinology, which intersect with Pigment dispersing factor. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Neuropeptide, focusing on Cell biology and, on occasion, Filopodia and Antibody.

His most cited work include:

  • A pdf Neuropeptide Gene Mutation and Ablation of PDF Neurons Each Cause Severe Abnormalities of Behavioral Circadian Rhythms in Drosophila (891 citations)
  • Neuropeptides and neuropeptide receptors in the Drosophila melanogaster genome. (455 citations)
  • Drosophila MEF2, a transcription factor that is essential for myogenesis. (380 citations)

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

Cell biology, Neuroscience, Neuropeptide, Circadian rhythm and Endocrinology are his primary areas of study. Paul H. Taghert combines subjects such as Drosophila melanogaster, Transcription factor, Drosophila Protein, FMRFamide and Molecular biology with his study of Cell biology. In his work, Drosophila is strongly intertwined with Function, which is a subfield of Neuroscience.

His Neuropeptide research incorporates elements of Insect, G protein-coupled receptor and Enzyme. His work carried out in the field of Circadian rhythm brings together such families of science as Pigment dispersing factor, Rhythm and Period. His Endocrinology research includes elements of Ecdysis, Mutant and Manduca sexta.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (42.20%)
  • Neuroscience (30.28%)
  • Neuropeptide (29.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Cell biology (42.20%)
  • Circadian rhythm (26.61%)
  • Neuroscience (30.28%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Circadian rhythm, Neuroscience, Neuropeptide and Rhythm. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Transgene, Drosophila melanogaster, Transcription factor, Drosophila Protein and RNA interference. His Circadian rhythm study is concerned with the field of Endocrinology as a whole.

His Endocrinology study incorporates themes from Genetics, Receptor, Pigment dispersing factor and Ecdysis, Moulting. In the field of Neuroscience, his study on Dopamine, Biological neural network and Cryptochrome overlaps with subjects such as Timing system. The study incorporates disciplines such as Enzyme, Genetically engineered, Intracellular, Drosophila and In vivo in addition to Neuropeptide.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Peptide neuromodulation in invertebrate model systems. (172 citations)
  • Synchronous Drosophila circadian pacemakers display nonsynchronous Ca2+ rhythms in vivo (99 citations)
  • A Series of Suppressive Signals within the Drosophila Circadian Neural Circuit Generates Sequential Daily Outputs (65 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Gene expression

Paul H. Taghert mainly investigates Neuroscience, Circadian rhythm, Neuropeptide, Drosophila melanogaster and Cell biology. His work on Biological neural network and Neural activity as part of general Neuroscience research is frequently linked to Evening, bridging the gap between disciplines. His research on Circadian rhythm concerns the broader Endocrinology.

His research in Neuropeptide tackles topics such as Rhythm which are related to areas like CLOCK Proteins, Cryptochrome and Bacterial circadian rhythms. His Drosophila melanogaster research integrates issues from Neurotransmitter Agents, Genetic model, Function, Neuromodulation and Invertebrate. His Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Molecular biology, Regulation of gene expression and Drosophila Protein.
