Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Allele and Internal medicine. Gene, Quantitative trait locus, Polymorphism, Haplotype and Genotype are among the areas of Genetics where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His study in Genome-wide association study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cancer, Frameshift mutation, Locus, Heritability and Genetic variation.

His work carried out in the field of Single-nucleotide polymorphism brings together such families of science as Schizophrenia, Autism, Fragile X syndrome and Genome. His Allele research includes themes of Disease, Immunology and Proband. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Endocrinology and Cardiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height (1614 citations)
  • A high-resolution recombination map of the human genome (1542 citations)
  • Large recurrent microdeletions associated with schizophrenia (1516 citations)

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

Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Allele and Gene are his primary areas of study. His Genetics research focuses on Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genotype, Genome, Sequence and Allele frequency. His Genome-wide association study research focuses on Missense mutation and how it relates to MYH6.

In his study, Stroke is inextricably linked to Cardiology, which falls within the broad field of Internal medicine. As part of his studies on Allele, Daniel F. Gudbjartsson frequently links adjacent subjects like Breast cancer. His Odds ratio study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lung cancer and Case-control study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (73.56%)
  • Genome-wide association study (65.38%)
  • Internal medicine (38.46%)

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

  • Genome-wide association study (65.38%)
  • Genetics (73.56%)
  • Internal medicine (38.46%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Genetic association and Missense mutation. His Genome-wide association study study is concerned with Gene in general. His research on Genetics frequently links to adjacent areas such as Genetic diversity.

His studies deal with areas such as Endocrinology, Oncology and Cardiology as well as Internal medicine. His studies in Genetic association integrate themes in fields like Cancer, Pleiotropy, Meta-analysis, Sequence and Regulation of gene expression. In his study, Immune system is strongly linked to Asthma, which falls under the umbrella field of Missense mutation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Spread of SARS-CoV-2 in the Icelandic Population. (768 citations)
  • Association studies of up to 1.2 million individuals yield new insights into the genetic etiology of tobacco and alcohol use (385 citations)
  • Association studies of up to 1.2 million individuals yield new insights into the genetic etiology of tobacco and alcohol use (385 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Daniel F. Gudbjartsson mostly deals with Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Allele, Gene and Odds ratio. His research integrates issues of Disease and Genetic diversity in his study of Genetics. The various areas that he examines in his Genome-wide association study study include Quantitative trait locus, Meta-analysis, Genetic association and Medical genetics.

Daniel F. Gudbjartsson has included themes like Consanguinity, Inbreeding, Locus and Runs of Homozygosity in his Allele study. His Odds ratio research includes elements of Nicotine, Schizophrenia, Case-control study and Allele frequency. His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology and Missense mutation.
