Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Membrane, Peptide, Cell biology and Stereochemistry. Biochemistry is closely attributed to Antimicrobial in his research. His study on Membrane is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Crystallography.

The concepts of his Peptide study are interwoven with issues in Amino acid, Phospholipid, Lipid bilayer fusion, Biophysics and Protein structure. As part of one scientific family, Richard M. Epand deals mainly with the area of Cell biology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Cardiolipin, and often Inner mitochondrial membrane. His study on Stereochemistry also encompasses disciplines like

  • Cationic polymerization that connect with fields like Tertiary amine,
  • Helix, which have a strong connection to Turn.

His most cited work include:

  • Diversity of antimicrobial peptides and their mechanisms of action. (1076 citations)
  • Relationship of membrane curvature to the formation of pores by magainin 2. (369 citations)
  • Method for delivering nucleic acids into cells (351 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Membrane, Peptide, Biophysics and Phospholipid. Biochemistry is represented through his Vesicle, Liposome, Phosphatidylcholine, Lipid bilayer fusion and Amino acid research. In most of his Membrane studies, his work intersects topics such as Crystallography.

In his work, Protein kinase C is strongly intertwined with Stereochemistry, which is a subfield of Peptide. His Biophysics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell membrane and Membrane lipids. His work deals with themes such as Cholesterol and Synthetic membrane, which intersect with Phospholipid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (47.42%)
  • Membrane (33.85%)
  • Peptide (22.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (47.42%)
  • Membrane (33.85%)
  • Diacylglycerol kinase (7.04%)

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

Richard M. Epand mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Membrane, Diacylglycerol kinase, Peptide and Biophysics. His study in Biochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Antimicrobial and Bacteria. As part of the same scientific family, Richard M. Epand usually focuses on Membrane, concentrating on Crystallography and intersecting with Phosphatidylserine.

His research on Diacylglycerol kinase also deals with topics like

  • Phosphatidic acid which intersects with area such as Stereochemistry, Substrate and Isozyme,
  • Gene isoform, which have a strong connection to Glycerol. He usually deals with Peptide and limits it to topics linked to Circular dichroism and Sodium dodecyl sulfate. His Biophysics study incorporates themes from Lipid bilayer fusion, Liposome, Vesicle, Transmembrane protein and Lipid bilayer.

Between 2007 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Lipid domains in bacterial membranes and the action of antimicrobial agents. (344 citations)
  • Tocopherols and tocotrienols in membranes: a critical review. (211 citations)
  • Bacterial membrane lipids in the action of antimicrobial agents (193 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Richard M. Epand spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Membrane, Membrane lipids, Cell biology and Cell membrane. The study incorporates disciplines such as Antimicrobial and Bacteria in addition to Biochemistry. In Membrane, Richard M. Epand works on issues like Peptide, which are connected to Cationic polymerization.

Richard M. Epand has researched Membrane lipids in several fields, including Influenza A virus, Membrane protein, Function and Peripheral membrane protein. His research investigates the connection between Cell biology and topics such as Cardiolipin that intersect with problems in Inner mitochondrial membrane, Metabolic pathway, Oxidative phosphorylation and Lysophospholipids. Richard M. Epand interconnects Melittin, Biophysics, Liposome and Endosome in the investigation of issues within Cell membrane.
