Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

William Brown mainly investigates Genetics, Telomere, DNA, Chromosome Arm and Chromosomal translocation. Pseudoautosomal region, Gene, Genomics, Genome and cDNA library are the core of his Genetics study. William Brown combines subjects such as Microchromosome, Schizosaccharomyces and Coding region with his study of Genome.

His Telomere research incorporates themes from Nucleic acid sequence, Human genome, Repeated sequence and DNA sequencing. His DNA study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Electrophoresis and Gel electrophoresis. His Chromosome Arm research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Subtelomere, Candidate gene, Tandem repeat and Cytogenetics.

His most cited work include:

  • Sequence and comparative analysis of the chicken genome provide unique perspectives on vertebrate evolution (2193 citations)
  • The low-angle X-ray diagram of vertebrate striated muscle and its behaviour during contraction and rigor (880 citations)
  • Comparative functional genomics of the fission yeasts (374 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Centromere, Chromosome, Gene and DNA. Genetics is represented through his Genome, Telomere, Integrase, Y chromosome and Schizosaccharomyces pombe research. His study in Centromere is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Metaphase, Mitosis, Cell biology and Kinetochore.

William Brown has included themes like Gene targeting and Restriction map in his Chromosome study. As part of one scientific family, William Brown deals mainly with the area of Gene, narrowing it down to issues related to the Computational biology, and often Function and Germline. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cloning, Somatic cell and Cytogenetics in addition to DNA.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (39.17%)
  • Centromere (17.50%)
  • Chromosome (13.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2002-2019)?

  • Genetics (39.17%)
  • Centromere (17.50%)
  • Integrase (5.83%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Centromere, Integrase, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Gene. His study involves Genome, Recombinase, Genomics, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and DNA, a branch of Genetics. His research integrates issues of Evolutionary biology, Microchromosome and Coding region in his study of Genome.

He interconnects Chromatin, Kinetochore and Cell biology in the investigation of issues within Centromere. In general Integrase, his work in Integrases is often linked to Cre recombinase linking many areas of study. His Gene research includes themes of Computational biology and Chick embryos.

Between 2002 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Sequence and comparative analysis of the chicken genome provide unique perspectives on vertebrate evolution (2193 citations)
  • Comparative functional genomics of the fission yeasts (374 citations)
  • The chicken as a model for large-scale analysis of vertebrate gene function (149 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

William Brown spends much of his time researching Genetics, Genomics, Genome, Gene and Integrases. William Brown studies Genetics, focusing on Developmental biology in particular. His Genomics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Schizosaccharomyces, Computational biology and Chick embryos.

His Genome study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Evolutionary biology, Microchromosome and Coding region. His studies deal with areas such as Embryo and Function as well as Gene. His studies in Integrases integrate themes in fields like Recombinase and Site-specific recombination.
