Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Richard M. Harland mainly focuses on Cell biology, Molecular biology, Noggin, Bone morphogenetic protein and Xenopus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Genetics and Gremlin in addition to Cell biology. The concepts of his Molecular biology study are interwoven with issues in Xbra, Notochord, Chordin, Gene product and Neurula.

His Noggin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Endocrinology, Neuroectoderm and GDF6. Richard M. Harland interconnects Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2, Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 3, Regulation of gene expression and Transcription factor in the investigation of issues within Bone morphogenetic protein. His Xenopus research includes elements of Zoology, Convergent extension and Drosophila Protein.

His most cited work include:

  • In Situ Hybridization: An Improved Whole-Mount Method for Xenopus Embryos (1922 citations)
  • The Spemann Organizer Signal noggin Binds and Inactivates Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 (1466 citations)
  • Expression cloning of noggin, a new dorsalizing factor localized to the Spemann organizer in Xenopus embryos (1055 citations)

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

Richard M. Harland mainly investigates Cell biology, Xenopus, Genetics, Noggin and Molecular biology. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Neural development and Bone morphogenetic protein. Richard M. Harland has included themes like Vertebrate, microRNA, Cellular differentiation and Embryogenesis in his Xenopus study.

Richard M. Harland has researched Noggin in several fields, including Endocrinology, Neuroectoderm, RNA, Sense and DNA. The study incorporates disciplines such as Paraxial mesoderm, Transcription factor, Mothers against decapentaplegic, Notochord and Gene product in addition to Molecular biology. His Gastrulation study incorporates themes from FGF8 and Endoderm.

  • Cell biology (59.68%)
  • Xenopus (48.39%)
  • Genetics (35.48%)

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

Richard M. Harland focuses on Cell biology, Xenopus, Genetics, Bone morphogenetic protein and Neural plate. His Cell biology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Cellular differentiation. The concepts of his Xenopus study are interwoven with issues in Molecular biology, microRNA and Programmed cell death.

In the subject of general Genetics, his work in Genome, Insertional mutagenesis and Cell growth is often linked to Integral membrane protein, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Richard M. Harland studies Bone morphogenetic protein, namely Noggin. His Neural plate study also includes fields such as

  • Fibroblast growth factor, which have a strong connection to Signal transduction, Ectoderm and Neural development,
  • Body Patterning together with Floor plate, Zebrafish, Notochord and Notch signaling pathway.

Between 2008 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • The genome of the western clawed frog xenopus tropicalis (588 citations)
  • Genome evolution in the allotetraploid frog Xenopus laevis (457 citations)
  • Xenopus research: metamorphosed by genetics and genomics (129 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Richard M. Harland mostly deals with Xenopus, Genetics, Cell biology, Gene and Regulation of gene expression. His Xenopus research incorporates themes from Genomic organization, Reprogramming, Genomics, Morphogenesis and Endocytosis. His Genetics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Embryonic Induction.

His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Apical constriction, Cellular differentiation and Dynamin. His Cellular differentiation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cartilage, Anatomy and Bone morphogenetic protein. His Regulation of gene expression research integrates issues from microRNA, Programmed cell death and Gene regulatory network.
