Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cell biology, Genetics, Caenorhabditis elegans, Centrosome and Cell division. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Spindle pole body and Cell polarity. Pierre Gönczy combines subjects such as Genome and Genomics with his study of Caenorhabditis elegans.

He has researched Genomics in several fields, including Proteomics and Helminth genetics. Pierre Gönczy combines topics linked to Centriole with his work on Centrosome. His work focuses on many connections between Cell division and other disciplines, such as Mitosis, that overlap with his field of interest in Cell and Cell cycle.

His most cited work include:

  • Functional genomic analysis of cell division in C. elegans using RNAi of genes on chromosome III (801 citations)
  • Functional genomic analysis of cell division in C. elegans using RNAi of genes on chromosome III (801 citations)
  • Full-genome RNAi profiling of early embryogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans (778 citations)

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

Cell biology, Centriole, Centrosome, Caenorhabditis elegans and Cell division are his primary areas of study. The Cell biology study which covers Spindle pole body that intersects with Cytokinesis and Central spindle. Pierre Gönczy interconnects Flagellum, Procentriole, Basal body, Centriole assembly and PLK4 in the investigation of issues within Centriole.

His Centrosome study results in a more complete grasp of Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Embryonic stem cell and Actin as well as Caenorhabditis elegans. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cell cycle, Gene and Cell polarity in addition to Cell division.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (76.70%)
  • Centriole (31.25%)
  • Centrosome (29.55%)

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

  • Cell biology (76.70%)
  • Centriole (31.25%)
  • Caenorhabditis elegans (25.57%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Centriole, Caenorhabditis elegans, Microtubule and Centrosome. His research brings together the fields of Cell division and Cell biology. His work on Astral microtubules as part of general Cell division study is frequently connected to PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

His Centriole study combines topics in areas such as Structural biology, Biological system, Procentriole and Organelle. His Caenorhabditis elegans research is classified as research in Genetics. In his research on the topic of Centrosome, Cell cycle, Pericentriolar material, Spindle apparatus, Lineage and Axoneme is strongly related with Mitosis.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • High-speed photothermal off-resonance atomic force microscopy reveals assembly routes of centriolar scaffold protein SAS-6. (53 citations)
  • Multicolor single-particle reconstruction of protein complexes. (39 citations)
  • Multicolor single-particle reconstruction of protein complexes. (39 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Centriole, Cell biology, Caenorhabditis elegans, Centrosome and Resolution. His Centriole research includes elements of Biogenesis, Cell Cycle Protein and Microscopy. As part of his studies on Cell biology, Pierre Gönczy often connects relevant areas like Cell polarity.

His work in Caenorhabditis elegans covers topics such as Actin which are related to areas like Aurora A kinase and Embryonic stem cell. Centrosome and Flagellum are frequently intertwined in his study. Pierre Gönczy has included themes like Structural biology, Biological system, Fluorescence and Cryo-electron microscopy in his Resolution study.
