2011 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Mitochondrial DNA, Cichlid, Phylogenetics and Evolutionary biology. His work in Phylogenetic tree, Nucleic acid sequence, Locus, Gene and Microsatellite is related to Genetics. His Mitochondrial DNA research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in mtDNA control region, Genome, Conserved sequence and Polymerase chain reaction.
His Cichlid research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Zoology, Adaptation, Ecology, Peptide sequence and Lamprologini. His work in Lamprologini tackles topics such as Amphilophus which are related to areas like Lamprologus, Tropheus, Monophyly, Polyphyly and Tropheus moorii. His study in Evolutionary biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pleiotropy, Anatomy, Ecological speciation and Sympatric speciation.
Genetics, Cichlid, Evolutionary biology, Gene and Genome are his primary areas of study. His Genetics research includes themes of Tilapia and Oreochromis. While the research belongs to areas of Cichlid, Thomas D. Kocher spends his time largely on the problem of Ecology, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Gene flow.
He has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Vertebrate, Genetic variation, DNA sequencing and Haplochromine. His Genome research incorporates elements of Computational biology and Sequence assembly. His Mitochondrial DNA study incorporates themes from Nucleic acid sequence, Phylogenetics, Polymerase chain reaction and Phylogenetic tree.
His primary areas of study are Genetics, Cichlid, Evolutionary biology, Gene and Genome. His Genetics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Adult height and Coding. His Cichlid study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Zoology, B chromosome, Phylogenetics, Lineage and Allele.
His Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Copy-number variation, Vertebrate, Oreochromis, Chromosome and Human height. His studies in Oreochromis integrate themes in fields like Phylogenetic tree, Tilapia, In situ hybridization and Tandem exon duplication. His studies examine the connections between Genome and genetics, as well as such issues in Sequence assembly, with regards to Contig and Adaptation.
Thomas D. Kocher focuses on Genetics, Gene, Dentistry, Evolutionary biology and Cichlid. His work carried out in the field of Genetics brings together such families of science as Coding and Adult height. Thomas D. Kocher interconnects Clade, Diversity, Mating, Sequence assembly and African cichlids in the investigation of issues within Evolutionary biology.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ecology, Meiosis, Karyotype, Copy-number variation and Lineage. His Lineage research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Zoology, Structural variation, Comparative genomics, Haplochromine and Adaptation. Thomas D. Kocher interconnects Nile tilapia and Oreochromis in the investigation of issues within Zoology.
