Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Sergio Verjovski-Almeida spends much of his time researching Genetics, Gene, Human genome, Genome and Schistosoma mansoni. In general Genetics, his work in Transcriptome, Transcription and Non-coding RNA is often linked to Anopheles gambiae linking many areas of study. His Gene study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Proteome.

His research investigates the connection between Human genome and topics such as Gene expression that intersect with problems in Receptor complex, Signal transduction and Small interfering RNA. His Whole genome sequencing study in the realm of Genome interacts with subjects such as Aedes aegypti. His work deals with themes such as Molecular biology, Viral tegument and Biochemistry, which intersect with Schistosoma mansoni.

His most cited work include:

  • Genome sequence of Aedes aegypti, a major arbovirus vector (949 citations)
  • The genome sequence of the plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa (771 citations)
  • Transcriptome analysis of the acoelomate human parasite Schistosoma mansoni (422 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Schistosoma mansoni, Gene, Genetics, Gene expression and ATPase. Sergio Verjovski-Almeida has researched Schistosoma mansoni in several fields, including Proteomics and Cell biology. His Genetics study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Schistosoma japonicum.

His research in Gene expression intersects with topics in RNA, Molecular biology and Signal transduction. His ATPase research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biophysics, Endoplasmic reticulum and Phosphorylation. His work in the fields of Genome, such as Whole genome sequencing, intersects with other areas such as Xylella fastidiosa.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Schistosoma mansoni (41.63%)
  • Gene (36.05%)
  • Genetics (31.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Schistosoma mansoni (41.63%)
  • Gene (36.05%)
  • Cell biology (20.17%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Schistosoma mansoni, Gene, Cell biology, Computational biology and Immunology. In the field of Schistosoma mansoni, his study on Schistosoma overlaps with subjects such as Propidium iodide. His work on Gene expression, Long non-coding RNA and Synteny as part of general Gene research is frequently linked to Gene co-expression network, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Sergio Verjovski-Almeida has included themes like RNA-Seq, Transcriptome, Genome, Regulation of gene expression and Intron in his Computational biology study. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hibiscus and Botany. His Immunology study incorporates themes from Wnt signaling pathway and Neural stem cell.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Discordant congenital Zika syndrome twins show differential in vitro viral susceptibility of neural progenitor cells. (54 citations)
  • Inhibition of histone methyltransferase EZH2 in Schistosoma mansoni in vitro by GSK343 reduces egg laying and decreases the expression of genes implicated in DNA replication and noncoding RNA metabolism. (17 citations)
  • Inhibition of histone methyltransferase EZH2 in Schistosoma mansoni in vitro by GSK343 reduces egg laying and decreases the expression of genes implicated in DNA replication and noncoding RNA metabolism. (17 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His main research concerns Cell biology, Gene, Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosomiasis and Schistosoma. His research in Cell biology tackles topics such as Gene expression which are related to areas like Histone and VAPB. His research integrates issues of Computational biology and Androgen receptor in his study of Gene.

Sergio Verjovski-Almeida brings together Schistosoma mansoni and Propidium iodide to produce work in his papers. The Schistosomiasis study combines topics in areas such as Viability assay, In vitro, RNA interference and In vivo. His study in Schistosoma is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gene knockdown, Demethylase, Molecular biology, Praziquantel and Thiazole.
