Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Mutation

His main research concerns Genetics, Glaucoma, Genome-wide association study, Ophthalmology and Open angle glaucoma. His work on Genetics deals in particular with Locus, Gene, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association and Mutation. His Glaucoma study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Odds ratio, Intraocular pressure and Case-control study.

David A. Mackey regularly ties together related areas like Refractive error in his Genome-wide association study studies. Confidence interval, Heritability, Cup-to-disc ratio, Endophenotype and Incidence is closely connected to Optometry in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Ophthalmology. His Open angle glaucoma research includes elements of Optineurin, Polymorphism and Optic nerve.

His most cited work include:

  • Identification of a Gene That Causes Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (1196 citations)
  • Identification of a Gene That Causes Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (1196 citations)
  • A large genome-wide association study of age-related macular degeneration highlights contributions of rare and common variants (638 citations)

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

David A. Mackey focuses on Genetics, Ophthalmology, Glaucoma, Genome-wide association study and Open angle glaucoma. His is involved in several facets of Genetics study, as is seen by his studies on Gene, Locus, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association and Mutation. Gene and Disease are commonly linked in his work.

His Ophthalmology research integrates issues from Odds ratio and Confidence interval. His studies examine the connections between Glaucoma and genetics, as well as such issues in Cohort, with regards to Cohort study. His Genome-wide association study study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Refractive error, Polymorphism and Heritability.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (52.11%)
  • Ophthalmology (49.88%)
  • Glaucoma (42.15%)

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

  • Ophthalmology (49.88%)
  • Young adult (8.90%)
  • Glaucoma (42.15%)

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

David A. Mackey mostly deals with Ophthalmology, Young adult, Glaucoma, Retinal and Internal medicine. His Ophthalmology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Blind spot. His Young adult research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Odds ratio, Logistic regression, Confidence interval, Pediatrics and Cohort.

His Glaucoma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Community based study and Polymorphism. He works mostly in the field of Retinal, limiting it down to topics relating to Retina and, in certain cases, Visual impairment, Increased risk and Eye disease. David A. Mackey is exploring Genome-wide association study as part of his Genetics, Gene and Genotype and Genome-wide association study studies.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Multitrait analysis of glaucoma identifies new risk loci and enables polygenic prediction of disease susceptibility and progression. (40 citations)
  • Multitrait analysis of glaucoma identifies new risk loci and enables polygenic prediction of disease susceptibility and progression. (40 citations)
  • Meta-analysis of 542,934 subjects of European ancestry identifies new genes and mechanisms predisposing to refractive error and myopia (30 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Mutation

David A. Mackey spends much of his time researching Refractive error, Genome-wide association study, Keratoconus, Ophthalmology and Internal medicine. His research on Genome-wide association study is centered around Genetics and Genotype. David A. Mackey combines subjects such as Corneal Diseases and Endophenotype with his study of Genetics.

His biological study deals with issues like Cohort, which deal with fields such as Scheimpflug principle, Epidemiology, Dioptre, Confidence interval and Locus. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Young adult and Adverse effect. His Polymorphism research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Glaucoma and Open angle glaucoma.
