Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Ophthalmology and Genetic association. His research on Genetics often connects related areas such as Case-control study. His research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Immunology, Genomics, Allele and Optic nerve in his study of Genome-wide association study.

His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research includes themes of Rotterdam Study, Refractive error and Optic disk. His Ophthalmology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Twin study, Heritability and Confidence interval. His Genetic association research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary biology, Gene cluster and Overlapping gene.

His most cited work include:

  • Human metabolic individuality in biomedical and pharmaceutical research (718 citations)
  • The architecture of gene regulatory variation across multiple human tissues: the MuTHER study (382 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study identifies 12 new susceptibility loci for primary biliary cirrhosis (372 citations)

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

Christopher J. Hammond mainly investigates Ophthalmology, Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Heritability and Twin study. His research on Ophthalmology frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Optometry. His Genetics research focuses on Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association, Locus, Gene and Quantitative trait locus.

His Genome-wide association study study incorporates themes from Keratoconus, Bioinformatics, Refractive error, Disease and Computational biology. He interconnects Concordance and Confidence interval in the investigation of issues within Heritability. Christopher J. Hammond regularly ties together related areas like Cohort in his Twin study studies.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ophthalmology (31.96%)
  • Genetics (25.11%)
  • Genome-wide association study (23.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Genome-wide association study (23.74%)
  • Ophthalmology (31.96%)
  • Glaucoma (13.47%)

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

Christopher J. Hammond focuses on Genome-wide association study, Ophthalmology, Glaucoma, Cohort and Refractive error. The subject of his Genome-wide association study research is within the realm of Genetics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Confidence interval and Heritability.

His work in Glaucoma addresses issues such as Intraocular pressure, which are connected to fields such as Cohort study and Mendelian randomization. His Cohort research also works with subjects such as

  • Physiology and related Age-related maculopathy,
  • Pediatrics which connect with Incidence. The Refractive error study combines topics in areas such as Dioptre, Optometry, Clinical trial and Eye examination.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide analyses identify 68 new loci associated with intraocular pressure and improve risk prediction for primary open-angle glaucoma. (93 citations)
  • Multitrait analysis of glaucoma identifies new risk loci and enables polygenic prediction of disease susceptibility and progression. (40 citations)
  • IMI - Myopia Genetics Report. (40 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

Genome-wide association study, Glaucoma, Internal medicine, Refractive error and Cohort are his primary areas of study. Christopher J. Hammond is doing genetic studies as part of his Genetics and Gene and Genome-wide association study investigations. His Genetics research focuses on Candidate gene in particular.

His work in Glaucoma addresses subjects such as Intraocular pressure, which are connected to disciplines such as Cohort study, Mendelian randomization, Metabolite and Homeostasis. His studies deal with areas such as Twin study, Heritability and Delirium as well as Internal medicine. His research investigates the connection between Refractive error and topics such as Genetic association that intersect with issues in Locus and Meta-analysis.
