Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Genome-wide association study, Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Genetics, Neuroscience and Candidate gene. Her work carried out in the field of Genome-wide association study brings together such families of science as Bipolar disorder, Hippocampal formation, Neuroimaging, Heritability and Genetic architecture. The Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder study combines topics in areas such as Conduct disorder, Twin study and Autism spectrum disorder.

As a member of one scientific family, Barbara Franke mostly works in the field of Neuroscience, focusing on Voxel-based morphometry and, on occasion, Imaging genetics, Anterior cingulate cortex, Amygdala, Atrophy and Prefrontal cortex. Barbara Franke usually deals with Candidate gene and limits it to topics linked to Phenotype and Disease. Her Single-nucleotide polymorphism study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Quantitative trait locus and Allele.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genetic relationship between five psychiatric disorders estimated from genome-wide SNPs (1634 citations)
  • Large recurrent microdeletions associated with schizophrenia (1550 citations)
  • Common variants conferring risk of schizophrenia (1413 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Genetics, Neuroscience, Clinical psychology and Psychiatry. In her work, White matter is strongly intertwined with Audiology, which is a subfield of Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Genetics is represented through her Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genome-wide association study, Candidate gene, Gene and Allele research.

Her Genome-wide association study research incorporates elements of Genetic architecture, Genetic association and Heritability. Her work in Neuroscience covers topics such as Schizophrenia which are related to areas like Bipolar disorder. Her work deals with themes such as Cognition and Aggression, which intersect with Clinical psychology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (34.15%)
  • Genetics (22.63%)
  • Neuroscience (20.73%)

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

  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (34.15%)
  • Clinical psychology (17.07%)
  • Neuroimaging (7.99%)

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

Barbara Franke mainly focuses on Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Clinical psychology, Neuroimaging, Autism spectrum disorder and Genetics. Her studies deal with areas such as Genome-wide association study, Audiology, Association, Impulsivity and Neurodevelopmental disorder as well as Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Her Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic association and Genetic architecture.

Her study with Neuroimaging involves better knowledge in Neuroscience. Her Autism spectrum disorder study also includes

  • Schizophrenia and related Autism,
  • Thalamus, Hippocampus and Putamen most often made with reference to Brain size. Genetics is a component of her Candidate gene, Gene, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, SNP and Genetic linkage studies.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex (163 citations)
  • ENIGMA and global neuroscience: A decade of large-scale studies of the brain in health and disease across more than 40 countries (136 citations)
  • Brain scans from 21,297 individuals reveal the genetic architecture of hippocampal subfield volumes. (47 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Her main research concerns Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Neuroscience, Genetic association, Clinical psychology and Autism spectrum disorder. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gut flora, Genome-wide association study, Audiology, Brain Structure and Function and Neurodevelopmental disorder. Barbara Franke has researched Genome-wide association study in several fields, including Odds ratio, Heritability and Genetic architecture.

As part of one scientific family, she deals mainly with the area of Neuroscience, narrowing it down to issues related to the Schizophrenia, and often Brain morphometry. Genetic association is the subject of her research, which falls under Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Her studies in Autism spectrum disorder integrate themes in fields like Brain asymmetry and Neuroimaging.
