What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Disease
Albert Hofman mostly deals with Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Rotterdam Study, Genetics and Risk factor.
His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology, Surgery and Cardiology.
His Genome-wide association study study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Allele, Genetic association, Locus and Case-control study.
His Rotterdam Study study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Dementia and Hazard ratio.
His study looks at the relationship between Genetics and topics such as Body mass index, which overlap with FTO gene.
His studies in Cohort study integrate themes in fields like Pediatrics and Cohort.
His most cited work include:
- Vascular dementia Diagnostic criteria for research studies: Report of the NINDS‐AIREN International Workshop* (3919 citations)
- Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids (2804 citations)
- Meta-analysis of 74,046 individuals identifies 11 new susceptibility loci for Alzheimer's disease (2614 citations)
