Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genome
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Genome, Human genome, Evolutionary biology and Gene. The concepts of his Human genome study are interwoven with issues in RNA, Computational biology and DNA. His Evolutionary biology research incorporates elements of Lineage, Gene rearrangement, Phylogenetic tree, Coding region and Human accelerated regions.

In general Gene, his work in Repeated sequence and Inverted repeat is often linked to Chlamydomonas, Plastid chromosome and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii linking many areas of study. His Multiple sequence alignment research incorporates themes from Sim4, Gap penalty, Sequence profiling tool and Substitution matrix. His work carried out in the field of Sim4 brings together such families of science as Sequence database, Consensus sequence and Bioinformatics.

His most cited work include:

  • Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (71897 citations)
  • Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs. (63278 citations)
  • Initial sequencing and comparative analysis of the mouse genome. (5789 citations)

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

His main research concerns Genetics, Genome, Gene, Computational biology and Evolutionary biology. Sequence alignment, Human genome, Conserved sequence, Sequence analysis and Genomics are the core of his Genetics study. Webb Miller works in the field of Sequence alignment, namely Multiple sequence alignment.

His Genome study frequently involves adjacent topics like DNA sequencing. While the research belongs to areas of Computational biology, he spends his time largely on the problem of Sequence, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Consensus sequence. The various areas that Webb Miller examines in his Evolutionary biology study include Phylogenetics and Genetic diversity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (49.66%)
  • Genome (34.01%)
  • Gene (26.87%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Evolutionary biology (17.35%)
  • Genome (34.01%)
  • Genetics (49.66%)

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

Webb Miller mostly deals with Evolutionary biology, Genome, Genetics, Gene and Computational biology. His study in Evolutionary biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Population genomics, Genomics, Acropora, Genetic diversity and Aye-aye. His work deals with themes such as Lineage, Mammoth and Genetic variation, which intersect with Genome.

His Genetics research focuses on subjects like Devil facial tumour disease, which are linked to Cell culture, genomic DNA and Polymerase chain reaction. Webb Miller has included themes like ENCODE, Population screening and Genetic Databases in his Computational biology study. His study focuses on the intersection of SNP and fields such as Bioinformatics with connections in the field of Population genetics.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • An integrated encyclopedia of DNA elements in the human genome (2642 citations)
  • A User's Guide to the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) (1178 citations)
  • Comparative and demographic analysis of orang-utan genomes. (439 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Webb Miller focuses on Genetics, Genome, Human genome, Zoology and Computational biology. His Genome study results in a more complete grasp of Gene. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mammoth and Woolly mammoth.

Webb Miller combines subjects such as DNA binding site, Sequence alignment, Conserved sequence, Enhancer and Synteny with his study of Human genome. His Zoology research includes themes of Lineage, Lemur, Aye-aye and Whole genome sequencing. His study explores the link between Computational biology and topics such as ENCODE that cross with problems in DNA, DNase-Seq and DNA methylation.
