Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are DNA repair, Molecular biology, DNA damage, DNA and Mitochondrion. His research in DNA repair intersects with topics in Mitochondrial DNA and Cell biology. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Mitophagy and NAD+ kinase.

His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Base excision repair, DNA glycosylase, DNA mismatch repair, Nucleotide excision repair and Gene. In his research, Mutagenesis is intimately related to Oxidative stress, which falls under the overarching field of DNA damage. He interconnects Autophagy, Neurodegeneration and Neuroscience in the investigation of issues within Mitochondrion.

His most cited work include:

  • SIRT6 is a histone H3 lysine 9 deacetylase that modulates telomeric chromatin (776 citations)
  • Nutrient-Sensitive Mitochondrial NAD+ Levels Dictate Cell Survival (731 citations)
  • Metformin improves healthspan and lifespan in mice (683 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in DNA repair, Molecular biology, DNA damage, DNA and Cell biology. His study in the field of Nucleotide excision repair and Base excision repair is also linked to topics like Premature aging. The concepts of his Molecular biology study are interwoven with issues in Cell culture, Chinese hamster ovary cell, AP site, Pyrimidine dimer and Gene.

His DNA damage research incorporates elements of Oxidative stress, Cancer research, Poly ADP ribose polymerase and Senescence. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Neurodegeneration and NAD+ kinase. His Mitochondrial DNA research integrates issues from Mitochondrial DNA repair and Mitochondrion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • DNA repair (63.73%)
  • Molecular biology (41.86%)
  • DNA damage (39.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Cell biology (33.05%)
  • DNA repair (63.73%)
  • Mitochondrion (23.56%)

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

Vilhelm A. Bohr mainly investigates Cell biology, DNA repair, Mitochondrion, DNA damage and Mitophagy. His study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biochemistry, DNA, Neurodegeneration, Werner syndrome and NAD+ kinase. His work on Base excision repair and Nucleotide excision repair as part of general DNA repair study is frequently linked to Premature aging, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

In his study, Oxidative phosphorylation is strongly linked to Oxidative stress, which falls under the umbrella field of Mitochondrion. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cancer research, Molecular biology, Poly ADP ribose polymerase, Gene and Nuclear DNA in addition to DNA damage. His Mitophagy research includes elements of Caenorhabditis elegans, Genome instability and Disease.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mitophagy inhibits amyloid-β and tau pathology and reverses cognitive deficits in models of Alzheimer’s disease (310 citations)
  • Mitophagy inhibits amyloid-β and tau pathology and reverses cognitive deficits in models of Alzheimer’s disease (310 citations)
  • Ageing as a risk factor for neurodegenerative disease. (261 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, DNA repair, Mitophagy, Mitochondrion and DNA damage. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Homologous recombination, Exonuclease, Werner syndrome, Telomere and NAD+ kinase. His research integrates issues of Genome instability and Mitochondrial DNA in his study of DNA repair.

His Mitophagy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Disease and Caenorhabditis elegans. His research in DNA damage intersects with topics in Apoptosis, Nicotinamide riboside, Gene, SIRT3 and Nuclear DNA. His DNA research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Protein structure, Molecular biology and Nucleic acid secondary structure.
