Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Gene, Allele and Single-nucleotide polymorphism are his primary areas of study. His research on Genetics often connects related topics like Molecular biology. His Genome-wide association study research incorporates elements of Linkage disequilibrium, Case-control study, Allele frequency, Cohort and SLC30A8.

The Allelic heterogeneity, Variable number tandem repeat, Untranslated region and Imprinting research Constantin Polychronakos does as part of his general Gene study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Minisatellite, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Allele research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endocrinology, Insulin, Internal medicine, Genotype and Regulation of gene expression. His work in Single-nucleotide polymorphism addresses issues such as Genotyping, which are connected to fields such as Autoantibody.

His most cited work include:

  • A genome-wide association study identifies novel risk loci for type 2 diabetes (2537 citations)
  • Insulin expression in human thymus is modulated by INS VNTR alleles at the IDDM2 locus (721 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study for early-onset and morbid adult obesity identifies three new risk loci in European populations (549 citations)

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

Constantin Polychronakos mainly focuses on Genetics, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Type 1 diabetes and Gene. Allele, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Locus, Genome-wide association study and Linkage disequilibrium are subfields of Genetics in which his conducts study. Constantin Polychronakos has researched Genome-wide association study in several fields, including Computational biology, Genetic association, Allele frequency and Human genetics.

The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Diabetes mellitus, Cell and Phenotype. His research investigates the connection between Endocrinology and topics such as Receptor that intersect with issues in Cell culture. His research investigates the link between Type 1 diabetes and topics such as Immunology that cross with problems in Disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (52.12%)
  • Internal medicine (31.36%)
  • Endocrinology (27.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Genetics (52.12%)
  • Internal medicine (31.36%)
  • Genome-wide association study (14.41%)

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

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Endocrinology and Type 1 diabetes. His Genetics study focuses mostly on Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Allele frequency, Genome, Exome sequencing and Genotype. He focuses mostly in the field of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to matters related to Diabetes mellitus and, in some cases, Epilepsy, Bioinformatics and Mutation.

He has included themes like Case-control study, Rheumatoid arthritis, Allele, Genetic association and Genetic architecture in his Genome-wide association study study. His Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Phenotype and Cell biology. His work in Type 1 diabetes covers topics such as Insulin which are related to areas like Autoimmune regulator.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Fine mapping of type 1 diabetes susceptibility loci and evidence for colocalization of causal variants with lymphoid gene enhancers. (386 citations)
  • Where genotype is not predictive of phenotype: towards an understanding of the molecular basis of reduced penetrance in human inherited disease (344 citations)
  • A genome-wide meta-analysis of six type 1 diabetes cohorts identifies multiple associated loci. (242 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His main research concerns Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Genetic association, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Disease. Point mutation, Gene, Autoimmunity, Genotyping and Major histocompatibility complex are the subjects of his Genetics studies. The various areas that he examines in his Genome-wide association study study include Inflammatory bowel disease, Autoantibody, Case-control study, Rheumatoid arthritis and Candidate gene.

His study focuses on the intersection of Rheumatoid arthritis and fields such as Coronary artery disease with connections in the field of Endocrinology. His Genetic association research includes themes of Schizophrenia, Linkage disequilibrium, Immune system, Quantitative trait locus and Allele. Constantin Polychronakos combines subjects such as Exome sequencing and Genetic heterogeneity with his study of Disease.
