Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

Her main research concerns Demography, Ecology, Social group, Primate and Zoology. The Demography study combines topics in areas such as Group membership, Dominance, Mating, Adaptive value and Biological dispersal. The concepts of her Dominance study are interwoven with issues in Sexual selection, Fertility and Mate choice.

Her studies deal with areas such as Social relation and Social status as well as Ecology. She has researched Social group in several fields, including Evolutionary biology, Kin selection and Social animal. Susan C. Alberts has included themes like Senescence, Human evolution, Paternal care and Baboon in her Primate study.

Her most cited work include:

  • Social bonds of female baboons enhance infant survival. (755 citations)
  • Moving in the Anthropocene : global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements (350 citations)
  • Behavior predicts genes structure in a wild primate group (316 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Demography, Ecology, Baboon, Zoology and Primate. Her Demography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Offspring, Social group, Mating, Animal ecology and Reproductive success. The study incorporates disciplines such as Kin selection and Sociality in addition to Social group.

The various areas that Susan C. Alberts examines in her Ecology study include Natural population growth and Biological dispersal. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Evolutionary biology, Genetics and Feces. Her studies in Zoology integrate themes in fields like Microbiome, Fertility, Host and Reproduction.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Demography (27.57%)
  • Ecology (24.30%)
  • Baboon (21.96%)

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

  • Demography (27.57%)
  • Baboon (21.96%)
  • Evolutionary biology (13.55%)

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

Susan C. Alberts focuses on Demography, Baboon, Evolutionary biology, Social status and Early life. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Offspring, Adaptive response, Dominance and Social group. Her studies deal with areas such as Juvenile and Direct effects as well as Offspring.

Her research integrates issues of Feces and Hybrid zone in her study of Baboon. While the research belongs to areas of Evolutionary biology, Susan C. Alberts spends her time largely on the problem of Longevity, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Human evolution, Sociality, Genetic algorithm, Range and Genetic Fitness. Her Social status research incorporates themes from Time-varying covariate, Social environment and DNA methylation.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Moving in the Anthropocene : global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements (350 citations)
  • Social determinants of health and survival in humans and other animals (73 citations)
  • A comprehensive analysis of autocorrelation and bias in home range estimation (46 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Baboon, Ecology, Zoology, Host and Reproduction. Her Baboon research includes themes of Evolutionary biology, Sociality, Genetic algorithm, Human evolution and Range. Her Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Population growth and Diversity.

Her Zoology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Microbiome, Fertility and Species richness. Her Host study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gut flora, Digestion and Symbiosis, Bacteria. Her Reproduction research integrates issues from Hormone, Thyroid hormones, Thyroid and Animal science.
