2011 - Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh
Brian R. Walker focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Glucocorticoid, Adipose tissue and Hydrocortisone. Brian R. Walker integrates many fields, such as Internal medicine and Carbenoxolone, in his works. His Endocrinology study frequently involves adjacent topics like 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1.
His Glucocorticoid research incorporates themes from Prednisolone, Surgical wound, Corticosteroid, Corticosterone and Type 2 diabetes. His work deals with themes such as Biopsy, Hyperinsulinemia and Metabolism, which intersect with Adipose tissue. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Body mass index, Birth weight, Low birth weight and Cushing syndrome.
Brian R. Walker spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Glucocorticoid, Adipose tissue and Hydrocortisone. His work on Insulin resistance, Metabolic syndrome and Corticosterone as part of general Internal medicine study is frequently linked to Context, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Endocrinology is frequently linked to 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 in his study.
His Glucocorticoid research incorporates elements of Inflammation, Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, Blood pressure and Dexamethasone. His studies link Body mass index with Obesity. Brian R. Walker performs multidisciplinary study in Cortisone and Carbenoxolone in his work.
Brian R. Walker mainly investigates Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Glucocorticoid, Adipose tissue and Context. His study in Internal medicine focuses on Hydrocortisone, Insulin resistance, Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, Cortisone and Androgen. His work carried out in the field of Insulin resistance brings together such families of science as Lipid profile and Aromatase.
His Endocrinology study frequently links to related topics such as Morning. His Glucocorticoid research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metabolite, Hormone, Omics and Adrenal insufficiency. His Adipose tissue research includes themes of Estrone, Carbonyl Reductase, Receptor, Transcortin and Breast cancer.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Glucocorticoid, Adipose tissue and Genome-wide association study. Brian R. Walker connects Internal medicine with Context in his research. Brian R. Walker regularly links together related areas like Morning in his Endocrinology studies.
His Glucocorticoid study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, Inflammation, Lipopolysaccharide, Corticosterone and Adrenocorticotropic hormone. His Adipose tissue research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Prednisolone and Glucocorticoid receptor. His Genome-wide association study study combines topics in areas such as Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Genetic association, Tourette syndrome and Heritability.
