Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Endocrinology and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Alan R. Shuldiner interconnects Allele and Cardiology in the investigation of issues within Internal medicine. Alan R. Shuldiner combines subjects such as Kidney disease, Renal function, Quantitative trait locus, Genetic architecture and Genotyping with his study of Genome-wide association study.

His Genetics study deals with Body mass index intersecting with FTO gene and Glucose homeostasis. Endocrinology is a component of his Insulin resistance, Diabetes mellitus, Obesity, Type 2 diabetes and Insulin studies. Medical genetics is closely connected to Mendelian randomization in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Cholesterol.

His most cited work include:

  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)
  • Discovery and refinement of loci associated with lipid levels (1814 citations)
  • Discovery and refinement of loci associated with lipid levels (1814 citations)

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

Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Genetics, Genome-wide association study and Single-nucleotide polymorphism are his primary areas of study. In Internal medicine, Alan R. Shuldiner works on issues like Old Order Amish, which are connected to Heritability. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Allele and Allele frequency.

His Genetic association, Gene, Candidate gene, Locus and Genetic variation investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. His study in Genome-wide association study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Quantitative trait locus and Bioinformatics. His work is connected to SNP, Linkage disequilibrium and Minor allele frequency, as a part of Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (62.83%)
  • Endocrinology (47.55%)
  • Genetics (42.22%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (62.83%)
  • Genetics (42.22%)
  • Genome-wide association study (28.19%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Endocrinology and Exome sequencing. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Diabetes mellitus, CYP2C19 and Cardiology. His work in Genome-wide association study addresses subjects such as Locus, which are connected to disciplines such as Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

His Endocrinology research focuses on Old Order Amish and how it connects with Clinical psychology. His Exome sequencing research incorporates themes from Disease, Computational biology, Allele and Cohort. His Type 2 diabetes research integrates issues from Obesity and Insulin.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genetic and Pharmacologic Inactivation of ANGPTL3 and Cardiovascular Disease (322 citations)
  • Distribution and clinical impact of functional variants in 50,726 whole-exome sequences from the DiscovEHR study (292 citations)
  • Genetic associations at 53 loci highlight cell types and biological pathways relevant for kidney function (273 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Endocrinology and Exome sequencing. In his study, Pathological and ABCC8 is inextricably linked to Cardiology, which falls within the broad field of Internal medicine. His Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Kidney disease, Renal function, Medical genetics, Quantitative trait locus and Locus.

His study explores the link between Locus and topics such as Single-nucleotide polymorphism that cross with problems in Waist, Waist–hip ratio and Meta-analysis. The concepts of his Endocrinology study are interwoven with issues in Old Order Amish and Genotype. His work carried out in the field of Exome sequencing brings together such families of science as Disease, Human genetics and Cohort.
