Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

Alexandra Zhernakova mainly investigates Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Immunology and Linkage disequilibrium. Alexandra Zhernakova frequently studies issues relating to Disease and Genetics. Her study in Genome-wide association study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both SNP, Quantitative trait locus, Genotyping, Genetic association and Candidate gene.

Her Quantitative trait locus research integrates issues from Bioinformatics, Drug discovery, Drug repositioning, In silico and Human genetics. Her Single-nucleotide polymorphism study deals with Genetic variation intersecting with Phenotype and Odds ratio. Her Immunology research includes elements of Inflammatory bowel disease and Ulcerative colitis.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genetics of rheumatoid arthritis contributes to biology and drug discovery (1350 citations)
  • Genetics of rheumatoid arthritis contributes to biology and drug discovery (1350 citations)
  • Systematic identification of trans eQTLs as putative drivers of known disease associations (1249 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Genetics, Immunology, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Disease. Her studies deal with areas such as Inflammatory bowel disease, Case-control study, Allele and Genotype as well as Immunology. She usually deals with Genome-wide association study and limits it to topics linked to SNP and Gene mapping.

Alexandra Zhernakova has included themes like Odds ratio, Polymorphism, Genetic predisposition and Candidate gene in her Single-nucleotide polymorphism study. Her Disease research includes themes of Human genetics, Cohort and Bioinformatics. Her research investigates the connection between Microbiome and topics such as Metagenomics that intersect with problems in Gut flora.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (51.49%)
  • Immunology (45.96%)
  • Genome-wide association study (45.11%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Microbiome (20.00%)
  • Genetics (51.49%)
  • Gut flora (11.91%)

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

Alexandra Zhernakova mainly focuses on Microbiome, Genetics, Gut flora, Genome-wide association study and Disease. Her research brings together the fields of Gluten free and Genetics. Her Gut flora research incorporates elements of Urbanization, Irritable bowel syndrome, Cohort and Bioinformatics.

Genome-wide association study is a subfield of Genotype that Alexandra Zhernakova tackles. Alexandra Zhernakova has researched Disease in several fields, including Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gene and Immunology. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cohort study and Dutch Population.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Impact of commonly used drugs on the composition and metabolic function of the gut microbiota (87 citations)
  • Interaction between drugs and the gut microbiome (29 citations)
  • Metabolomics Profile in Depression: A Pooled Analysis of 230 Metabolic Markers in 5283 Cases With Depression and 10,145 Controls (26 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Her primary scientific interests are in Disease, Microbiome, Genome-wide association study, Gut flora and Genetics. She combines subjects such as Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gene and Immunology with her study of Disease. Her work investigates the relationship between Single-nucleotide polymorphism and topics such as Phenotype that intersect with problems in Genetic variation.

Her Immunology research focuses on Abundance and how it relates to Cohort study and Cohort. The Genome-wide association study study combines topics in areas such as Mendelian randomization, Mendelian Randomization Analysis and Genomics. Her Gut flora study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Irritable bowel syndrome and Bioinformatics.
