What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Endocrinology
- Osteoporosis
His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Osteoporosis, Bone remodeling and Bone density.
His biological study deals with issues like Osteoblast, which deal with fields such as Resorption.
B. Lawrence Riggs has included themes like Osteocalcin, Osteoprotegerin and Stromal cell in his Endocrinology study.
His Osteoporosis study combines topics in areas such as Cortical bone and Physical therapy.
His work deals with themes such as Calcitonin, Peak bone mass and Testosterone, which intersect with Bone remodeling.
His Bone density research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bone age and Densitometry.
His most cited work include:
- Sex steroids and the construction and conservation of the adult skeleton. (1431 citations)
- Perspective : how many women have osteoporosis ? (1096 citations)
- The roles of osteoprotegerin and osteoprotegerin ligand in the paracrine regulation of bone resorption. (997 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Osteoporosis, Bone density and Bone mineral.
His Internal medicine study typically links adjacent topics like Osteocalcin.
His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Cortical bone, Parathyroid hormone and Osteoblast.
The Osteoporosis study which covers Surgery that intersects with Risk factor.
B. Lawrence Riggs interconnects Orthodontics, Logistic regression, Bone age and Forearm in the investigation of issues within Bone density.
In his research, Incidence is intimately related to Physical therapy, which falls under the overarching field of Bone mineral.
He most often published in these fields:
- Internal medicine (65.64%)
- Endocrinology (60.00%)
- Osteoporosis (45.13%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2017)?

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
B. Lawrence Riggs focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Osteoporosis, Bone density and Bone mineral.
His study in the fields of Bone resorption, Bone remodeling and Testosterone under the domain of Internal medicine overlaps with other disciplines such as Sclerostin.
His study in Endocrinology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Parathyroid hormone, Bone marrow and Osteoblast.
His Osteoporosis research includes elements of Cortical bone, Prospective cohort study and Oophorectomy, Hysterectomy.
B. Lawrence Riggs has researched Bone density in several fields, including Logistic regression, Surgery, Forearm, Orthodontics and Osteopenia.
His Bone mineral research incorporates themes from Femur, Dentistry, Physical therapy, Bone disease and Skeleton.
Between 2006 and 2017, his most popular works were:
- Perspective : how many women have osteoporosis ? (1096 citations)
- Long-term fracture prediction by bone mineral assessed at different skeletal sites (771 citations)
- A population-based assessment of rates of bone loss at multiple skeletal sites: evidence for substantial trabecular bone loss in young adult women and men. (393 citations)
