1989 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Hydrothermal vent, Evolutionary biology, Deep sea and Genetic diversity. In his study, Gene flow is strongly linked to Biological dispersal, which falls under the umbrella field of Ecology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Zoology, Oceanography and Monophyly in addition to Hydrothermal vent.

His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary biology brings together such families of science as Outcrossing, Genome, Asexual reproduction and Inbreeding. The various areas that he examines in his Deep sea study include Paleontology, Habitat and Bathymodiolus. The concepts of his Phylogenetic tree study are interwoven with issues in Phylum, DNA barcoding, Sipuncula and Polymerase chain reaction.

His most cited work include:

  • DNA primers for amplification of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I from diverse metazoan invertebrates. (10159 citations)
  • Genome 10K: A Proposal to Obtain Whole-Genome Sequence for 10 000 Vertebrate Species (471 citations)
  • Evolution and Biogeography of Deep-Sea Vent and Seep Invertebrates (430 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Hydrothermal vent, Zoology, Evolutionary biology and Poeciliopsis. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Deep sea, Biological dispersal and Siboglinidae. The Hydrothermal vent study which covers Range that intersects with Genetic diversity.

His Zoology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phylogenetic tree, Larva, Mitochondrial DNA and Osedax. Robert C. Vrijenhoek has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Phylogenetics, Asexual reproduction and DNA sequencing. When carried out as part of a general Poeciliopsis research project, his work on Poeciliopsis monacha is frequently linked to work in Monacha, Genetics and Genome, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (55.56%)
  • Hydrothermal vent (30.43%)
  • Zoology (26.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Ecology (55.56%)
  • Hydrothermal vent (30.43%)
  • Oceanography (12.08%)

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

Robert C. Vrijenhoek mostly deals with Ecology, Hydrothermal vent, Oceanography, Habitat and Deep sea. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Zoology, Biological dispersal and Siboglinidae. His study in Hydrothermal vent is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Evolutionary biology, Polychaete, Biodiversity and Genetic diversity.

His Oceanography research incorporates elements of SNP and Mid-Atlantic Ridge. His studies deal with areas such as Taxonomy, Genetic structure and Living fossil as well as Habitat. In his research, Cretaceous and Longevity is intimately related to Phylogenetic tree, which falls under the overarching field of Osedax.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Genetic diversity and connectivity of deep-sea hydrothermal vent metapopulations. (135 citations)
  • Time-series analysis of six whale-fall communities in Monterey Canyon, California, USA (74 citations)
  • On the instability and evolutionary age of deep-sea chemosynthetic communities (60 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Hydrothermal vent, Habitat, Deep sea and Biological dispersal. His Ecology research includes themes of Vesicomyidae, Phylogenetics and Whale fall. His Phylogenetics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Polychaete and Phylogenetic tree.

His research investigates the connection between Phylogenetic tree and topics such as Cretaceous that intersect with issues in Gastropoda. His Hydrothermal vent research includes themes of Oceanography, Fauna and Community structure. His studies in Genus integrate themes in fields like Abyssochrysidae, Alviniconcha, Allopatric speciation and DNA barcoding.
