Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

Alanna C. Morrison spends much of her time researching Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Genetic association and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Her research integrates issues of Bioinformatics, Blood pressure, Medical genetics, Disease and Genetic architecture in her study of Genome-wide association study. Her Blood pressure research includes themes of Kidney disease and Renal function.

Her study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology and Cardiology. Her Genetic association research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Quantitative trait locus, Dominance, Inbreeding depression and Locus. Her work deals with themes such as Haplotype and FEV1/FVC ratio, which intersect with Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genetic variants in novel pathways influence blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk (1543 citations)
  • A comprehensive 1000 Genomes–based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease (1174 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study of blood pressure and hypertension (1099 citations)

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

Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Genetic association and Gene are her primary areas of study. She regularly links together related areas like Blood pressure in her Genetics studies. Her research in Blood pressure intersects with topics in Framingham Risk Score and Risk factor.

Her Genome-wide association study study also includes

  • Genetic architecture and related Medical genetics,
  • Disease which intersects with area such as Coronary artery disease. Her Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Endocrinology, Oncology and Cardiology. Alanna C. Morrison has included themes like Imputation, Genetic epidemiology, Linkage disequilibrium and Candidate gene in her Genetic association study.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (48.50%)
  • Genome-wide association study (38.87%)
  • Internal medicine (29.57%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Genetics (48.50%)
  • Genome-wide association study (38.87%)
  • Genetic association (25.58%)

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

Alanna C. Morrison focuses on Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Genetic association, Gene and Internal medicine. In most of her Genetics studies, her work intersects topics such as PCSK9. Alanna C. Morrison has researched Genome-wide association study in several fields, including Polymorphism, Bioinformatics, Blood pressure, Medical genetics and Genetic architecture.

Her Genetic association research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Quantitative trait locus, Linkage disequilibrium, Locus and Imputation. Alanna C. Morrison interconnects Alcohol and Alcohol interactions in the investigation of issues within Gene. Her Internal medicine research incorporates themes from Endocrinology and Cardiology.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Novel genetic associations for blood pressure identified via gene-alcohol interaction in up to 570K individuals across multiple ancestries (799 citations)
  • Genetic analysis of over 1 million people identifies 535 new loci associated with blood pressure traits. (284 citations)
  • Sequencing of 53,831 diverse genomes from the NHLBI TOPMed Program (143 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

Her main research concerns Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Genetic association, Genetic architecture and Internal medicine. The concepts of her Genome-wide association study study are interwoven with issues in SNP, Polymorphism, Heart failure, Bioinformatics and Medical genetics. Many of her studies on Genetics involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Lipid metabolism.

Her Genetic association study results in a more complete grasp of Single-nucleotide polymorphism. The study incorporates disciplines such as Genome, Reference genome, Genomics and Computational biology in addition to Genetic architecture. Her Internal medicine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Endocrinology, Metabolomics and Cardiology.
