What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Robert Poulin mainly focuses on Ecology, Host, Zoology, Parasite hosting and Species richness.
He combines topics linked to Evolutionary biology with his work on Ecology.
Similarity is closely connected to Geographical distance in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Host.
His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Freshwater fish, Phylogenetics and Interspecific competition.
His Parasite hosting research incorporates elements of Range, Phylogenetic tree, Taxon, Helminths and Vertebrate.
As part of the same scientific family, Robert Poulin usually focuses on Species richness, concentrating on Population density and intersecting with Trematoda.
His most cited work include:
- SPECIES RICHNESS OF PARASITE ASSEMBLAGES: Evolution and Patterns (953 citations)
- Evolutionary Ecology of Parasites (938 citations)
- Parasites in food webs: the ultimate missing links (577 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Host, Parasite hosting and Parasitism.
His research on Ecology often connects related areas such as Helminths.
His studies examine the connections between Zoology and genetics, as well as such issues in Taxon, with regards to Taxonomy.
His Host research focuses on Predation and how it connects with Trophic level.
Robert Poulin regularly ties together related areas like Freshwater fish in his Parasite hosting studies.
His studies deal with areas such as Biodiversity, Community structure and Species diversity as well as Species richness.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (71.98%)
- Zoology (41.65%)
- Host (39.82%)
