In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Rasmus Nielsen mainly focuses on Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Adaptation, Genome and Introgression.
His Evolutionary biology research includes elements of Phylogenetic tree, Selection, Phylogenetics, Allele and Genetic variation.
Genotyping, Heteroplasmy, Mitochondrial DNA, Pedigree chart and Genome-wide association study are subfields of Genetics in which his conducts study.
Rasmus Nielsen has researched Adaptation in several fields, including Species distribution and Subsistence agriculture.
His study looks at the relationship between Genome and fields such as Ancient DNA, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
He focuses mostly in the field of Introgression, narrowing it down to topics relating to Gene flow and, in certain cases, Genetic structure.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- 137 ancient human genomes from across the Eurasian steppes (144 citations)
