Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Cohort, Cognition, Demography and Gerontology. Her study in the field of SNP, Genome-wide association study and Heritability is also linked to topics like Low frequency. Her Cohort study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Genetic association.

Alison Pattie studies Intelligence quotient which is a part of Cognition. Her Demography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Medical history, Cohort study, Birth cohort, Cognitive change and Cognitive Changes. Her Gerontology research includes elements of Preferred walking speed, Psychiatry, Dementia, Alzheimer's disease and Risk factor.

Her most cited work include:

  • DNA methylation age of blood predicts all-cause mortality in later life. (604 citations)
  • Retinal vascular image analysis as a potential screening tool for cerebrovascular disease: a rationale based on homology between cerebral and retinal microvasculatures (464 citations)
  • Cohort Profile: The Lothian Birth Cohorts of 1921 and 1936 (299 citations)

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

Alison Pattie mainly focuses on Cognition, Genetics, Gerontology, Developmental psychology and Demography. The concepts of her Cognition study are interwoven with issues in Ageing, Apolipoprotein E and Dementia, Cognitive decline. Her research integrates issues of Preferred walking speed and Alzheimer's disease in her study of Gerontology.

Her work on Nonverbal communication as part of her general Developmental psychology study is frequently connected to Structural equation modeling, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Her studies deal with areas such as Longitudinal study and Cohort study, Birth cohort as well as Demography. As part of the same scientific family, Alison Pattie usually focuses on Cohort study, concentrating on Cohort and intersecting with Pediatrics.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cognition (34.09%)
  • Genetics (19.70%)
  • Gerontology (15.91%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Cognition (34.09%)
  • Genetics (19.70%)
  • Birth cohort (11.36%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Cognition, Genetics, Birth cohort, Demography and Brain size. Her study looks at the relationship between Cognition and topics such as Cognitive decline, which overlap with Apolipoprotein E. Her work in Birth cohort addresses subjects such as Depressive symptoms, which are connected to disciplines such as Psychological intervention, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Fluid intelligence and Neuroticism.

Alison Pattie interconnects Longitudinal study, Cohort study and Cohort in the investigation of issues within Demography. Her Brain size research incorporates elements of Body mass index, Gait speed, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Bioinformatics and Neurology. Her research investigates the connection with Gerontology and areas like Ageing which intersect with concerns in Biomarker.

Between 2017 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Genetic analysis of over 1 million people identifies 535 new loci associated with blood pressure traits. (284 citations)
  • Brain age predicts mortality (238 citations)
  • Cohort Profile Update: The Lothian Birth Cohorts of 1921 and 1936. (124 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

Alison Pattie mainly focuses on Genetics, Cognition, Ageing, Longitudinal study and Disease. Her work on Genetic analysis, Nuclear gene and Imputation as part of general Genetics research is often related to XML, thus linking different fields of science. Alison Pattie combines subjects such as Hippocampal formation and Hippocampus with her study of Cognition.

The Longitudinal study study combines topics in areas such as Fractional anisotropy, Cohort study and Audiology. Her work carried out in the field of Disease brings together such families of science as Genome-wide association study, Bioinformatics, Blood pressure, Medical genetics and Genetic association. Her Birth cohort research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Demography, Physical health, Self report and Cohort.
