Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Theodore T. Puck spends much of his time researching Genetics, Cell biology, Tissue culture, Somatic cell and Chinese hamster. Theodore T. Puck studied Genetics and Computational biology that intersect with DNA repair. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell, Cell membrane and Embryonic stem cell.

His research in Tissue culture intersects with topics in HeLa, Cell growth and Molecular biology. His studies examine the connections between Cell growth and genetics, as well as such issues in Immunology, with regards to Biophysics and Giant cell. His Chinese hamster study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genetic linkage and Chinese hamster ovary cell.

His most cited work include:

  • Action of x-rays on mammalian cells. (1396 citations)
  • Clonal growth of mammalian cells in vitro; growth characteristics of colonies from single HeLa cells with and without a feeder layer. (931 citations)
  • GENETICS OF SOMATIC MAMMALIAN CELLS III. LONG-TERM CULTIVATION OF EUPLOID CELLS FROM HUMAN AND ANIMAL SUBJECTS (779 citations)

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

Theodore T. Puck focuses on Genetics, Molecular biology, Cell biology, Cell and Chinese hamster ovary cell. His Molecular biology study also includes

  • DNA, which have a strong connection to Cancer cell and Nucleolus,
  • Cell culture, which have a strong connection to Regulation of gene expression. Theodore T. Puck interconnects Cell growth and Cytoskeleton in the investigation of issues within Cell biology.

His research investigates the connection between Cell growth and topics such as Tissue culture that intersect with issues in Immunology. The Cell study combines topics in areas such as Virus and Mitosis. The concepts of his Chinese hamster ovary cell study are interwoven with issues in Cytochalasin B, Cell membrane and Hamster.

  • Genetics (42.94%)
  • Molecular biology (41.18%)
  • Cell biology (42.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1991-2016)?

  • Cell biology (42.35%)
  • Molecular biology (41.18%)
  • Cancer (15.88%)

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

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Molecular biology, Cancer, Genetics and Cancer cell. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phenotype and Chinese hamster ovary cell. The various areas that Theodore T. Puck examines in his Molecular biology study include Mutation, Mutagenesis, Caffeine, Cytoskeleton and Cell cycle.

In Cancer, Theodore T. Puck works on issues like Cell, which are connected to Mitosis and Cell killing. Many of his studies on Genetics apply to Evolutionary biology as well. The Cancer cell study combines topics in areas such as Cancer treatment, Gene and DNA.

Between 1991 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Role of the cytoskeleton in genome regulation and cancer. (47 citations)
  • Role of the cytoskeleton in genome regulation and cancer. (47 citations)
  • Role of the cytoskeleton in genome regulation and cancer. (47 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in DNA, Cell biology, Gene, Genome and Genetics. His DNA study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Molecular biology. His Molecular biology research incorporates themes from Premature chromosome condensation, Chromosome 21, Biophysics, Nucleolus and X chromosome.

His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cell culture, Chromosome breakage, Mutagenesis, Mitotic chromosome condensation and Phenotype. He specializes in Gene, namely Fluorescence in situ hybridization. His study in the field of Cancer, Cancer cell and Carcinogenesis also crosses realms of Environmental exposure.
