Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Robert K. Moyzis mostly deals with Genetics, DNA, Allele, Repeated sequence and Haplotype. Robert K. Moyzis integrates Genetics with Conserved sequence in his study. His DNA research incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Stereochemistry and Crystal structure.

His Repeated sequence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Telomere and Chromosome. Robert K. Moyzis has researched Telomere in several fields, including Heterochromatin, Constitutive heterochromatin, Cytogenetics and Sequence. His work deals with themes such as Locus and Gene family, which intersect with Haplotype.

His most cited work include:

  • A highly conserved repetitive DNA sequence, (TTAGGG)n, present at the telomeres of human chromosomes. (1844 citations)
  • Ancient missense mutations in a new member of the RoRet gene family are likely to cause familial Mediterranean fever (1175 citations)
  • Ancient missense mutations in a new member of the RoRet gene family are likely to cause familial Mediterranean fever. The International FMF Consortium. (621 citations)

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

Robert K. Moyzis mainly focuses on Genetics, DNA, Molecular biology, Gene and Allele. His Genetics study is mostly concerned with Chromosome, Human genome, Linkage disequilibrium, Gene mapping and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His work carried out in the field of DNA brings together such families of science as RNA, Centromere, Crystallography and Repeated sequence.

In the field of Repeated sequence, his study on Cot analysis overlaps with subjects such as Conserved sequence. His Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as Telomere, Cell culture, Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and CpG site. Robert K. Moyzis studied Allele and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder that intersect with Genotype and Dopamine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (59.18%)
  • DNA (23.13%)
  • Molecular biology (17.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2018)?

  • Genetics (59.18%)
  • Single-nucleotide polymorphism (12.24%)
  • Neuroscience (8.84%)

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

Robert K. Moyzis spends much of his time researching Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Neuroscience, Developmental psychology and Genetic variation. Robert K. Moyzis combines topics linked to Analysis of variance with his work on Genetics. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research includes themes of Dopamine and Heritability.

His Developmental psychology research integrates issues from Cognition, Personality and 1000 Genomes Project. His study focuses on the intersection of Genetic variation and fields such as Serotonergic with connections in the field of Linear regression. His work on Dopamine receptor D4 as part of general Allele research is frequently linked to Human development, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Between 2009 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Serotonin transporter gene-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR) influences decision making under ambiguity and risk in a large Chinese sample (80 citations)
  • Whole-genome genetic diversity in a sample of Australians with deep Aboriginal ancestry. (64 citations)
  • Individual differences in false memory from misinformation: Personality characteristics and their interactions with cognitive abilities (57 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Genetics, Developmental psychology, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Personality and Genotype are his primary areas of study. Robert K. Moyzis interconnects Melanesians and Genetic diversity in the investigation of issues within Genetics. His Developmental psychology research focuses on subjects like Cognition, which are linked to 5-HTTLPR and Cooperativeness.

His studies in Single-nucleotide polymorphism integrate themes in fields like Analysis of variance and Allele. His Allele research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Schizophrenia, Gene expression and Pathogenesis. The various areas that Robert K. Moyzis examines in his SNP study include Molecular genetics, Working memory, Dopamine receptor and Linkage disequilibrium.
