Overview

Stewart A. Anderson is affiliated with the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in the United States. Their research spans multiple fields within biomedical science, particularly focusing on biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and medicine. Anderson's work demonstrates a notable emphasis on molecular biology, neurology, genetics, cellular and molecular neuroscience, and physiology.

The scientist has contributed to several main research topics that include congenital heart defects research, neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration mechanisms, single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, mitochondrial function and pathology, epigenetics and DNA methylation, RNA modifications and cancer, and HIV research and treatment.

Anderson has frequently published in venues such as bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Stem Cell Reports, Brain, Stem Cells, and eLife. The number of publications peaks notably in bioRxiv with seven publications and Stem Cell Reports with four.

Their recent papers include the following:

  • "Neuroinflammation and EIF2 Signaling Persist despite Antiretroviral Treatment in an hiPSC Tri-culture Model of HIV Infection," 2020, Stem Cell Reports
  • "Disruption of the blood-brain barrier in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome," 2021, Brain
  • "Association of Mitochondrial Biogenesis With Variable Penetrance of Schizophrenia," 2021, JAMA Psychiatry
  • "Rigor and reproducibility in human brain organoid research: Where we are and where we need to go," 2024, Stem Cell Reports
  • "MitoScape: A big-data, machine-learning platform for obtaining mitochondrial DNA from next-generation sequencing data," 2021, PLoS Computational Biology

Frequent co-authors include Alexis Crockett, Jorge I. Alvarez, Hania Kébir, James A. Pippin, and Alessandra Chesi, highlighting collaborative efforts spanning different aspects of biomedical and neurological research.
