What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Cell biology (31.25%)
  • Signal transduction (19.64%)
  • Sphingolipid (46.43%)

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

Robert C. Dickson mainly focuses on Cell biology, Signal transduction, Sphingolipid, Myriocin and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. His Signal transduction study introduces a deeper knowledge of Biochemistry. His study in the field of Calcium signaling and Protein-Serine-Threonine Kinases is also linked to topics like Endocytosis and Exocytosis.

His Sphingolipid research incorporates themes from Serine C-palmitoyltransferase, Cellular homeostasis and Kinase. His Myriocin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Transcription factor, Serine, Protein kinase A and Longevity. His Saccharomyces cerevisiae study is concerned with Yeast in general.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition) (4170 citations)
  • Down-regulating sphingolipid synthesis increases yeast lifespan. (82 citations)
  • Roles for Sphingolipids in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (77 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Sphingolipid, Cell biology, Signal transduction, Myriocin and Biochemistry. His Sphingolipid research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Serine C-palmitoyltransferase, Kinase, Protein kinase A and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. His Serine C-palmitoyltransferase study combines topics in areas such as Regulation of gene expression, Neuroscience, Model organism and Longevity.

His Kinase study is related to the wider topic of Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Phosphorylation and Calcium signaling as well as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. His work deals with themes such as Calorie restriction and AMPK, which intersect with Myriocin.
