Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • DNA repair

Roland Kanaar spends much of his time researching DNA repair, Molecular biology, Homologous recombination, DNA damage and Genetics. His DNA repair study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Replication protein A and Cell biology. His study in Replication protein A is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both DNA replication and DNA mismatch repair.

Roland Kanaar combines subjects such as DNA repair protein XRCC4, Sister chromatid exchange, HMG-box, Endonuclease and DNA ligase with his study of Molecular biology. His Homologous recombination research integrates issues from Gene targeting and MUS81. His research in DNA damage intersects with topics in Mutation and Gene.

His most cited work include:

  • Chromosomal stability and the DNA double-stranded break connection. (1008 citations)
  • DNA Double-Strand Break Repair: All's Well that Ends Well (635 citations)
  • Repair of DNA interstrand cross-links. (483 citations)

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

Roland Kanaar mainly focuses on DNA repair, Homologous recombination, DNA, Molecular biology and DNA damage. His DNA repair research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Replication protein A and Cell biology. His Homologous recombination research incorporates themes from Genetic recombination and Cancer research.

His work deals with themes such as Homologous chromosome, Recombination, Ionizing radiation, Biophysics and Chromosome, which intersect with DNA. His research integrates issues of Sister chromatid exchange, Mutant, Chromatid, Sister chromatids and MUS81 in his study of Molecular biology. His work is dedicated to discovering how DNA damage, G2-M DNA damage checkpoint are connected with CHEK1 and other disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • DNA repair (48.65%)
  • Homologous recombination (40.54%)
  • DNA (37.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Cancer research (12.43%)
  • Homologous recombination (40.54%)
  • RAD51 (21.08%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cancer research, Homologous recombination, RAD51, Ex vivo and DNA repair. His Cancer research study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as DNA damage, Cisplatin, Cancer cell, Immunology and Radiation therapy. He works mostly in the field of Homologous recombination, limiting it down to concerns involving Genetic recombination and, occasionally, Homology directed repair, Molecular biology, DNA repair protein XRCC4, Replication protein A and DNA sequencing.

His studies in RAD51 integrate themes in fields like Breast cancer and Chromosome instability. His work in DNA repair covers topics such as Cell culture which are related to areas like DNA replication factor CDT1. His DNA research incorporates elements of Computational biology and Cell biology.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Mesenchymal Inflammation Drives Genotoxic Stress in Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Predicts Disease Evolution in Human Pre-leukemia. (154 citations)
  • A novel Fanconi anaemia subtype associated with a dominant-negative mutation in RAD51 (82 citations)
  • Inactivation of Pol θ and C-NHEJ eliminates off-target integration of exogenous DNA. (68 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Mutation

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Genetics, Homologous recombination, Cancer research and Hyperthermia. The Glycogen research he does as part of his general Internal medicine study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Vascular smooth muscle, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. He is investigating Homologous recombination as part of his Gene and DNA and Homologous recombination study.

His work carried out in the field of Gene brings together such families of science as Ex vivo and Breast cancer. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Cancer research, Genotoxic Stress, Hematopoietic stem cell and DNA damage is strongly linked to Immunology. His Hyperthermia research focuses on subjects like Oncology, which are linked to Surgery, Chemotherapy and Targeted therapy.
