Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Neuroscience

Clyde Francks mainly investigates Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Locus and Neuroscience. Much of his study explores Genetics relationship to Autism. His studies in Genome-wide association study integrate themes in fields like Anatomy & histology, Schizophrenia, Medical genetics, Hippocampal formation and Human brain.

His work on SNP, ANK3 and Tag SNP as part of general Single-nucleotide polymorphism research is often related to Poison control, thus linking different fields of science. In the field of Neuroscience, his study on Basal ganglia, Putamen and Caudate nucleus overlaps with subjects such as Striatum. He has included themes like Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, Clinical psychology, Neuroimaging and Neuropsychology in his Voxel-based morphometry study.

His most cited work include:

  • Large recurrent microdeletions associated with schizophrenia (1516 citations)
  • Common genetic variants influence human subcortical brain structures. (610 citations)
  • Common genetic variants influence human subcortical brain structures. (610 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Genetics, Brain asymmetry, Genome-wide association study and Human brain. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Gene expression and Genetic architecture. His research related to Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Locus, Genetic linkage, Gene and Allele might be considered part of Genetics.

His Brain asymmetry research focuses on Autism spectrum disorder and how it connects with Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and Clinical psychology. His Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Rapid automatized naming and Reading. His Human brain study combines topics in areas such as White matter, Forebrain and Laterality.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (55.08%)
  • Genetics (39.84%)
  • Brain asymmetry (36.33%)

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

  • Brain asymmetry (36.33%)
  • Neuroscience (55.08%)
  • Human brain (29.69%)

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

Clyde Francks mostly deals with Brain asymmetry, Neuroscience, Human brain, Autism and Autism spectrum disorder. His research integrates issues of Neuroimaging and Genetic association in his study of Brain asymmetry. His work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Divergence and Genetic architecture.

His Human brain study which covers White matter that intersects with Genetic correlation. His Autism study also includes

  • Bipolar disorder most often made with reference to Schizophrenia,
  • Cognition which is related to area like Human Connectome Project and Evolutionary biology. His Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder study deals with Genome-wide association study intersecting with Dyslexia, Cortex and Brain mapping.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex. (116 citations)
  • The genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex. (116 citations)
  • ENIGMA and global neuroscience: A decade of large-scale studies of the brain in health and disease across more than 40 countries (97 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Mutation

His main research concerns Neuroimaging, Neuroscience, Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Autism spectrum disorder and Major depressive disorder. His Neuroimaging research incorporates themes from Brain asymmetry, Lateralization of brain function, Meta-analysis and Clinical psychology. His Neuroscience study typically links adjacent topics like Schizophrenia.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genome-wide association study and Genetic variation. His Genome-wide association study research integrates issues from Cerebral cortex, Cortex, Brain mapping and Genetic architecture. Clyde Francks interconnects SNP, Genetics, Heritability, Polymorphism and Dyslexia in the investigation of issues within Bipolar disorder.
