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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Robert A. Godke spends much of his time researching Andrology, Embryo, Blastocyst, Embryogenesis and Gynecology. His study in Andrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both In vitro fertilisation and Reproductive technology. His Reproductive technology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sperm, Spermatogenesis and Anatomy, Human fertilization.

His research integrates issues of Counts per minute, Glycerol and Capsule in his study of Embryo. His study focuses on the intersection of Blastocyst and fields such as Embryonic stem cell with connections in the field of Oocyte, Cytoplast, Cell biology and Somatic cell nuclear transfer. The Gynecology study combines topics in areas such as Pregnancy, Insemination, Pregnancy rate and Bovine embryo.
