Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

Her primary areas of study are Ecology, Metagenomics, Genomics, Microbiome and Computational biology. In the subject of general Ecology, her work in Ecosystem is often linked to Theoretical models, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Her Metagenomics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genetic marker, Genome, Gene family and Marker gene.

Her Genome research integrates issues from Earth Microbiome Project, Phylogenetic tree and Biogeochemistry. Her work carried out in the field of Genomics brings together such families of science as Evolutionary biology, Zoology, Marine biology and RNA extraction. Her studies deal with areas such as Nucleic acid, Viral metagenomics, DNA microarray, Transduction and DNA sequencing as well as Computational biology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Predictive functional profiling of microbial communities using 16S rRNA marker gene sequences (4407 citations)
  • Functional metagenomic profiling of nine biomes (740 citations)
  • Viruses manipulate the marine environment (418 citations)

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

Rebecca Vega Thurber mainly investigates Ecology, Coral, Microbiome, Coral reef and Reef. The Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Microbial population biology, Microbial ecology, Symbiodinium and Metagenomics. Her Metagenomics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genome, Genomics and Computational biology.

Her Computational biology research integrates issues from Viral metagenomics and DNA sequencing. Rebecca Vega Thurber interconnects Zoology and Holobiont in the investigation of issues within Coral. Her Coral reef research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Species richness, Marine ecosystem and Eutrophication.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (73.42%)
  • Coral (49.37%)
  • Microbiome (35.44%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Coral (49.37%)
  • Ecology (73.42%)
  • Reef (27.85%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Coral, Ecology, Reef, Coral reef and Microbiome. Her research integrates issues of Zoology, Human virome and Holobiont in her study of Coral. A large part of her Ecology studies is devoted to Atoll.

Her Reef research incorporates elements of Abiotic component and Predation. Her Microbiome study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Foundation species, Outbreak and Wildlife. She works on Genetics which deals in particular with Metagenomics.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Parrotfish predation drives distinct microbial communities in reef-building corals. (7 citations)
  • Deciphering Coral Disease Dynamics: Integrating Host, Microbiome, and the Changing Environment (4 citations)
  • Parasitic ‘Candidatus Aquarickettsia rohweri’ is a marker of disease susceptibility in Acropora cervicornis but is lost during thermal stress (3 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

Her primary scientific interests are in Coral, Microbiome, Reef, Coral reef and Ecology. The various areas that Rebecca Vega Thurber examines in her Coral study include Host and Foundation species. Her work deals with themes such as Zoology, Symbiotic bacteria, Acropora, Candidatus and Coral bleaching, which intersect with Host.

As part of her studies on Coral bleaching, Rebecca Vega Thurber often connects relevant areas like Holobiont. Her Foundation species research incorporates themes from Outbreak and Wildlife. Porites lobata is integrated with Predation, Ruegeria, Parrotfish and Mesocosm in her research.
