Identity & disambiguation
- OpenAlex author ID: A5067184382
- ORCID: 0000-0001-9161-999X
- Google Scholar: public profile (verified owner e-mail)
- Verification: Top work is the 2012 Jinek et al. CRISPR-Cas9 landmark (17k+ citations in OpenAlex). ORCID 0000-0001-9161-999X confirms identity.
How does 149 compare to the field? The OpenAlex benchmark dataset (63,665 authors) puts a senior biochemistry researcher's median h-index far below these numbers — profiles like Doudna's sit in the extreme tail of the distribution. Compare against field × career-stage benchmarks.
