Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Her primary areas of study are Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association and Schizophrenia. Her research investigates the connection between Genetics and topics such as Meta-analysis that intersect with problems in Logistic regression. Her research in Genome-wide association study intersects with topics in Linkage disequilibrium, Case-control study, Major depressive disorder, Depression and Genetic architecture.

Cathryn M. Lewis combines subjects such as Odds ratio, Internal medicine, Inflammatory bowel disease, Immunology and Allele frequency with her study of Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Her Genetic association study incorporates themes from Genetic model and Neuroscience. Her Schizophrenia study combines topics in areas such as Bipolar disorder and Psychosis.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genome-wide association study of 14,000 cases of seven common diseases and 3,000 shared controls (8085 citations)
  • A strong candidate for the breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility gene BRCA1 (5285 citations)
  • Localization of a breast cancer susceptibility gene, BRCA2, to chromosome 13q12-13 (1653 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Depression and Major depressive disorder. Her work in Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Locus, Genetic linkage, Allele and Linkage disequilibrium is related to Genetics. Cathryn M. Lewis works mostly in the field of Single-nucleotide polymorphism, limiting it down to topics relating to Odds ratio and, in certain cases, Case-control study, as a part of the same area of interest.

The various areas that Cathryn M. Lewis examines in her Genome-wide association study study include Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder, Genetic association, Heritability and Genetic architecture. The Genetic association study combines topics in areas such as Sample size determination, Disease and Bioinformatics. Her Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gastroenterology and Oncology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (33.18%)
  • Genome-wide association study (29.26%)
  • Internal medicine (22.02%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2022)?

  • Depression (21.12%)
  • Genome-wide association study (29.26%)
  • Major depressive disorder (16.89%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Depression, Genome-wide association study, Major depressive disorder, Internal medicine and Clinical psychology. Her Depression research incorporates elements of SNP, Biobank, Demography, Heritability and Mental health. The subject of her Genome-wide association study research is within the realm of Genetics.

Her Major depressive disorder study also includes fields such as

  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder that intertwine with fields like Neuroticism,
  • Genetic heterogeneity which is related to area like Anxiety. Her Internal medicine research incorporates themes from Antidepressant, Atypical depression and Oncology. Cathryn M. Lewis has researched Clinical psychology in several fields, including Bipolar disorder, Schizophrenia, Genetic risk and Risk factor.

Between 2019 and 2022, her most popular works were:

  • Polygenic risk scores: from research tools to clinical instruments (123 citations)
  • Minimal phenotyping yields genome-wide association signals of low specificity for major depression (70 citations)
  • Genome-wide gene-environment analyses of major depressive disorder and reported lifetime traumatic experiences in UK Biobank (44 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer

Genome-wide association study, Major depressive disorder, Clinical psychology, Genetic association and Depression are her primary areas of study. Her Genome-wide association study study is concerned with Genetics in general. Her Genetics research integrates issues from Causal model and Colocalization.

Her research on Clinical psychology also deals with topics like

  • Schizophrenia that intertwine with fields like Psychosis and Bipolar disorder,
  • Copy-number variation and Composite score most often made with reference to Cognition. Her Genetic association study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Precision medicine, Disease and Genetic architecture. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biobank and Heritability in addition to Depression.
