Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Gene

Genome-wide association study, Mesothelioma, Genetics, Internal medicine and Pathology are his primary areas of study. The various areas that Arthur W. Musk examines in his Genome-wide association study study include Medical genetics, Asthma, Allele, Pulmonary function testing and Genetic association. His Mesothelioma research incorporates elements of Stage, Surgery, Chemotherapy and Cumulative Exposure.

Genetics is closely attributed to Body mass index in his study. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Gastroenterology, Pneumoconiosis, Asbestos and Oncology. His Locus research incorporates themes from Genetic variability and Candidate gene.

His most cited work include:

  • Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height (1614 citations)
  • Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height (1614 citations)
  • Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology (781 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Mesothelioma, Internal medicine, Asbestos, Pathology and Immunology. He combines subjects such as Biomarker, Cancer, Pleural disease and Incidence with his study of Mesothelioma. Arthur W. Musk has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Gastroenterology and Oncology.

The Asbestos study combines topics in areas such as Surgery, Disease, Cohort and Environmental health. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Pathology, concentrating on Pleural effusion and intersecting with Effusion. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Genetics and Immunology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mesothelioma (40.65%)
  • Internal medicine (36.26%)
  • Asbestos (25.64%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Mesothelioma (40.65%)
  • Asbestos (25.64%)
  • Internal medicine (36.26%)

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

Arthur W. Musk mostly deals with Mesothelioma, Asbestos, Internal medicine, Pathology and Genome-wide association study. His Mesothelioma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cancer, Incidence, Blue asbestos and Cohort. His work deals with themes such as Gastroenterology and Physical therapy, which intersect with Internal medicine.

He has researched Pathology in several fields, including Biomarker and Pleural effusion. Genome-wide association study is a subfield of Genetics that Arthur W. Musk tackles. His Genetics research includes themes of Body mass index and Waist.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology (781 citations)
  • The Influence of Age and Sex on Genetic Associations with Adult Body Size and Shape: A Large-Scale Genome-Wide Interaction Study (455 citations)
  • Genome-wide physical activity interactions in adiposity. A meta-analysis of 200,452 adults (211 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Gene

Arthur W. Musk spends much of his time researching Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Body mass index, Genetic association and Pathology. Arthur W. Musk combines subjects such as Peanut allergy, Immunology, FEV1/FVC ratio and Risk factor with his study of Genome-wide association study. Arthur W. Musk has included themes like Anthropometry and Obesity in his Body mass index study.

While the research belongs to areas of Genetic association, he spends his time largely on the problem of Medical genetics, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Quantitative trait locus, Mendelian Randomization Analysis and International HapMap Project. His Pathology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biomarker, Pleural effusion and Asbestosis. His Mesothelioma research integrates issues from Internal medicine and Asbestos.
