In 2014, Laura H. Carnell Professor of Biology joined 51³Ô¹ÏÍø’s College of Science and Technology to launch the Institute for Genomics and Evolutionary Medicine where he and his team built software to analyze large-scale genomic data.
Now, the article describing the Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis version 7 (MEGA7) software that he and his team developed is among the top 100 most cited scientific works in history from the prestigious journal Nature.
The MEGA software suite features essential tools for constructing evolutionary trees and performing statistical analyses of molecular data.
Since its release, the MEGA7 article has garnered more than 45,000 citations, making it one of the youngest and fastest-climbing articles to hit Nature’s top 100 list.
