Gene
Enzyme
DNA

Ueli Aebi mostly deals with Biophysics, Nuclear pore, Crystallography, Intermediate filament and Cell biology. Ueli Aebi combines subjects such as Cytoplasm, Biochemistry, In vitro, Microscopy and Transmission electron microscopy with his study of Biophysics. His work deals with themes such as Nucleoporin, Cryo-electron microscopy, Nucleocytoplasmic Transport, Molecular biology and Ran, which intersect with Nuclear pore.

His Crystallography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fibril and Scanning transmission electron microscopy, Electron microscope. The various areas that Ueli Aebi examines in his Intermediate filament study include Lamin, Desmin and Protein filament. Ueli Aebi works mostly in the field of Cell biology, limiting it down to topics relating to Cell and, in certain cases, Phosphorylation and Motility.

His most cited work include:

The nuclear lamina is a meshwork of intermediate-type filaments. (787 citations)
The nuclear lamina is a meshwork of intermediate-type filaments. (787 citations)
Nuclear Lamins: Their Structure, Assembly, and Interactions (624 citations)

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