In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
R. John Aitken spends much of his time researching Oxidative stress, Cell biology, DNA damage, Sperm and Lipid peroxidation.
His study in Oxidative stress is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Andrology, Reactive oxygen species, Germ cell and Infertility.
His Reactive oxygen species study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sperm motility and Mitochondrion.
Specifically, his work in Cell biology is concerned with the study of Oocyte.
His DNA damage study introduces a deeper knowledge of DNA.
His Sperm research incorporates themes from Lipid raft, Mitochondrial ROS and Spermatogenesis.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Heat exposure induces oxidative stress and dna damage in the male germ line (40 citations)
- Transgenerational inheritance: how impacts to the epigenetic and genetic information of parents affect offspring health. (37 citations)
- Impact of oxidative stress on male and female germ cells: implications for fertility (31 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His primary areas of study are Oxidative stress, Germline, Cell biology, Sperm and Germ cell.
R. John Aitken works in the field of Oxidative stress, namely Lipid peroxidation.
In his study, DNA damage is strongly linked to DNA fragmentation, which falls under the umbrella field of Cell biology.
R. John Aitken works mostly in the field of DNA damage, limiting it down to concerns involving Bioinformatics and, occasionally, Oocyte and Embryo.
In the subject of general Sperm, his work in Spermatid is often linked to Spermatocyte, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His Germ cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Heat shock protein, HSPA2, Somatic cell and 4-Hydroxynonenal.
