Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Thomas Braun mostly deals with Cell biology, Molecular biology, Myogenesis, Myocyte and Internal medicine. Thomas Braun is interested in Stem cell, which is a branch of Cell biology. His Molecular biology research integrates issues from Endothelial stem cell, Cellular differentiation, RNA, Progenitor cell and Regulation of gene expression.

MyoD, Myogenin and MYF5 are the core of his Myogenesis study. His Myocyte research includes elements of Inflammation, TBX1, Programmed cell death and PAX3. Thomas Braun has included themes like Endocrinology, Signal transduction, Precursor cell and Downregulation and upregulation in his Internal medicine study.

His most cited work include:

  • MyoD or Myf-5 is required for the formation of skeletal muscle (1352 citations)
  • Myostatin Mutation Associated with Gross Muscle Hypertrophy in a Child (1144 citations)
  • Atheroprotective communication between endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells through miRNAs. (902 citations)

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

Thomas Braun spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Internal medicine, Molecular biology, Endocrinology and Myocyte. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Chromatin, Embryonic stem cell and Skeletal muscle. He studies Skeletal muscle, focusing on Myogenesis in particular.

His Internal medicine study frequently involves adjacent topics like Cardiology. His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cellular differentiation, Mutant and Gene. His Myocyte study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Cell growth.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (42.47%)
  • Internal medicine (16.22%)
  • Molecular biology (13.13%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Cell biology (42.47%)
  • Chromatin (5.41%)
  • Computational biology (4.44%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Chromatin, Computational biology, Transcription factor and Stem cell. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Embryonic stem cell and Cell. He works mostly in the field of Computational biology, limiting it down to topics relating to Genome and, in certain cases, CRISPR and Homology directed repair.

His Transcription factor study typically links adjacent topics like Signal transduction. His Stem cell research incorporates elements of Skeletal muscle, Lung and Adult stem cell. The Sirtuin study combines topics in areas such as Endocrinology and Internal medicine.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hematopoietic Deficiency of the Long Noncoding RNA MALAT1 Promotes Atherosclerosis and Plaque Inflammation (73 citations)
  • Bronchioalveolar stem cells are a main source for regeneration of distal lung epithelia in vivo (52 citations)
  • Integrated Morphoelectric and Transcriptomic Classification of Cortical GABAergic Cells. (35 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Thomas Braun focuses on Cell biology, Lung, Cancer research, Transcriptome and Cell type. His Cell biology research focuses on Stem cell in particular. His Lung study combines topics in areas such as Oxidative stress, Alternative oxidase, Apoptosis and In vivo.

His study in Cancer research is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cancer, Mitochondrial ROS, microRNA, Gene silencing and Epigenetics. His Transcriptome study deals with Neuroscience intersecting with Neurofilament. As part of one scientific family, Thomas Braun deals mainly with the area of Chromatin, narrowing it down to issues related to the Epigenome, and often Cell fate determination, Pioneer factor, Cellular differentiation and Transcription factor.
