Her primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Immunology, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Internal medicine. Her work in Allele, Gene, Locus, Autoimmune disease and Candidate gene is related to Genetics. Her studies in Genome-wide association study integrate themes in fields like SNP, Linkage disequilibrium, Human leukocyte antigen, Disease and Genetic association.
Her Immunology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Crohn's disease, Coeliac disease, Inflammatory bowel disease and Genetic predisposition. Her work in Single-nucleotide polymorphism tackles topics such as Genetic variation which are related to areas like Polymorphism. She focuses mostly in the field of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to matters related to Type 2 diabetes and, in some cases, CDKAL1 and Mendelian randomization.
Cisca Wijmenga focuses on Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Immunology, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Internal medicine. In her study, Bioinformatics is strongly linked to Disease, which falls under the umbrella field of Genetics. Her work deals with themes such as Quantitative trait locus, Genetic variation, Genetic predisposition and Case-control study, which intersect with Genome-wide association study.
As part of one scientific family, Cisca Wijmenga deals mainly with the area of Immunology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Inflammatory bowel disease, and often Ulcerative colitis. Her Single-nucleotide polymorphism study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Haplotype and Candidate gene. Her research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Type 2 diabetes.
Her scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Immunology, Microbiome and Disease. The Genome-wide association study study combines topics in areas such as SNP, Computational biology and Genetic association. Her Immunology research incorporates elements of Epigenetics and Inflammatory bowel disease.
Her Inflammatory bowel disease study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Case-control study and Ulcerative colitis. Her Microbiome research incorporates themes from Evolutionary biology, Irritable bowel syndrome and Metagenomics. Her biological study deals with issues like Cohort, which deal with fields such as Cohort study.
Cisca Wijmenga mostly deals with Metagenomics, Genome-wide association study, Microbiome, Immunology and Gut flora. Her Metagenomics research includes themes of Genome and Metabolomics. Her Genome-wide association study research entails a greater understanding of Genetics.
Her work on Gastrointestinal Microbiome as part of general Microbiome research is frequently linked to Peeling skin syndrome, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her Immunology study incorporates themes from Methylation, Epigenetics and Drug repositioning. Her Gut flora research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Irritable bowel syndrome, Case-control study, Inflammatory bowel disease and Cohort.
