Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Robb Krumlauf spends much of his time researching Hox gene, Cell biology, Genetics, Hindbrain and Rhombomere. The study incorporates disciplines such as Homeobox, Vertebrate, Neural fold, Neural plate and Homeotic gene in addition to Hox gene. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Xenopus, Retinoic acid, Anatomy and Ectopic expression.

His study in Hindbrain is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Neural tube and Neural crest. His Rhombomere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Neuroectoderm, Phenotype, Gastrulation, Paraxial mesoderm and Enhancer. His research in Regulation of gene expression tackles topics such as Evolutionary biology which are related to areas like Mutation, Cellular differentiation, Comparative embryology and Morphogenesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Homeobox genes and axial patterning (2274 citations)
  • Hox genes in vertebrate development. (1822 citations)
  • Patterning the Vertebrate Neuraxis (1032 citations)

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

Robb Krumlauf mainly investigates Hox gene, Cell biology, Genetics, Hindbrain and Rhombomere. His work carried out in the field of Hox gene brings together such families of science as Homeobox, Regulation of gene expression, Vertebrate and Evolutionary biology. His studies in Regulation of gene expression integrate themes in fields like Embryonic stem cell, Cellular differentiation and Body plan.

His Cell biology research integrates issues from Transcription factor, Retinoic acid and Anatomy. His Hindbrain study combines topics in areas such as Neurogenesis, Neural development and Ectopic expression. He regularly ties together related areas like Paraxial mesoderm in his Rhombomere studies.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hox gene (75.32%)
  • Cell biology (68.18%)
  • Genetics (56.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Cell biology (68.18%)
  • Hox gene (75.32%)
  • Vertebrate (25.00%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Hox gene, Vertebrate, Evolutionary biology and Hindbrain. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phenotype, Zebrafish and Fibroblast growth factor. Robb Krumlauf has researched Hox gene in several fields, including Cranial neural crest, Neural crest, Enhancer, Regulation of gene expression and Gene regulatory network.

Robb Krumlauf focuses mostly in the field of Regulation of gene expression, narrowing it down to matters related to Retinoic acid and, in some cases, Genetically modified mouse. His studies deal with areas such as Homeobox and In vitro as well as Evolutionary biology. Hindbrain is closely attributed to Rhombomere in his work.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The sea lamprey germline genome provides insights into programmed genome rearrangement and vertebrate evolution. (128 citations)
  • Segmental arithmetic: summing up the Hox gene regulatory network for hindbrain development in chordates. (33 citations)
  • Segmental arithmetic: summing up the Hox gene regulatory network for hindbrain development in chordates. (33 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Gene expression

Robb Krumlauf focuses on Hox gene, Cell biology, Regulation of gene expression, Vertebrate and Zebrafish. The subject of his Hox gene research is within the realm of Gene. Robb Krumlauf has included themes like Homeobox, Genetics and Cellular differentiation in his Cell biology study.

The Regulation of gene expression study combines topics in areas such as SOX2, Nanog Homeobox Protein and Retinoic acid. The various areas that Robb Krumlauf examines in his Vertebrate study include Evolutionary biology, Hindbrain, Genome, Germline and Gene regulatory network. His research integrates issues of Chordate and Anatomy in his study of Hindbrain.
