  • Biophysics (16.33%)

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

Robert Tycko mainly focuses on Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, Fibril, Biophysics, Crystallography and Molecule. His Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance research incorporates themes from Carbon-13 NMR, Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Analytical chemistry, Protein structure and Chemical shift. Robert Tycko usually deals with Protein structure and limits it to topics linked to Side chain and Monomer.

His work carried out in the field of Fibril brings together such families of science as Amino acid, Amyloid fibril, Cryo-electron microscopy and Peptide. His Biophysics research includes elements of Alzheimer's disease, Amyloid β, Phosphorylation and Amyloid. His Crystallography research includes themes of Lattice, Pathogenesis and Intermolecular force.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Structure of FUS Protein Fibrils and Its Relevance to Self-Assembly and Phase Separation of Low-Complexity Domains (279 citations)
  • Structural variation in amyloid-β fibrils from Alzheimer's disease clinical subtypes (275 citations)
  • Amyloid Polymorphism: Structural Basis and Neurobiological Relevance (205 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Amino acid
  • Electron

Robert Tycko spends much of his time researching Fibril, Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, Crystallography, Biophysics and Peptide. His study in Fibril is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hydrophobic effect and Phosphorylation. His Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Carbon-13 NMR.

Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Chemical shift under Crystallography, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Protein structure, Metastability and Lattice. The Biophysics study which covers Biochemistry that intersects with Amyloid fibril. His Peptide study incorporates themes from Racemic mixture and Self-healing hydrogels.
