What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Genetics, Tourette syndrome, Dopaminergic, Psychiatry and Dopamine receptor D2 are his primary areas of study.
His Genetics study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Cell biology.
His Tourette syndrome research incorporates themes from Internal medicine, Tics and Impulsivity.
The Dopaminergic study combines topics in areas such as Conduct disorder and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
His work in Dopamine receptor D2 covers topics such as Addiction which are related to areas like Clinical psychology.
The various areas that David E. Comings examines in his Dopamine study include Reward system and Neurotransmitter.
His most cited work include:
- A functional variant of lymphoid tyrosine phosphatase is associated with type I diabetes (1232 citations)
- Reward deficiency syndrome: a biogenetic model for the diagnosis and treatment of impulsive, addictive, and compulsive behaviors. (729 citations)
- Reward deficiency syndrome: genetic aspects of behavioral disorders. (529 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
David E. Comings focuses on Genetics, Tourette syndrome, Molecular biology, DNA and Internal medicine.
The concepts of his Tourette syndrome study are interwoven with issues in Tics, Proband, Substance abuse and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
His study on Molecular biology also encompasses disciplines like
- Chromatin which is related to area like Mitosis,
- DNA replication that intertwine with fields like Thymidine.
He interconnects Satellite DNA, Chromosome, Karyotype and Giemsa stain in the investigation of issues within DNA.
His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Endocrinology and Allele.
David E. Comings works mostly in the field of Allele, limiting it down to concerns involving Genotype and, occasionally, Multiple sclerosis.
He most often published in these fields:
- Genetics (25.34%)
- Tourette syndrome (19.00%)
- Molecular biology (17.19%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1999-2016)?
- Genetics (25.34%)
- Endocrinology (14.03%)
- Internal medicine (14.93%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
David E. Comings mainly investigates Genetics, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Allele and Gene.
His work in the fields of Genetics, such as Candidate gene, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic linkage and Quantitative trait locus, overlaps with other areas such as Big Five personality traits.
His Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Alzheimer's disease, Receptor, Anthropometry and Tourette syndrome.
His Allele research incorporates elements of Central nervous system disease, Protein tyrosine phosphatase, Metabolic syndrome, Genotype and Acid phosphatase.
His studies in Gene integrate themes in fields like Infectious disease, Molecular biology, Immune system and Phenylethanolamine.
David E. Comings combines subjects such as Dopamine receptor D2, Neuroscience, Reward system and Dopamine with his study of Psychiatry.
Between 1999 and 2016, his most popular works were:
- A functional variant of lymphoid tyrosine phosphatase is associated with type I diabetes (1232 citations)
- Reward deficiency syndrome: a biogenetic model for the diagnosis and treatment of impulsive, addictive, and compulsive behaviors. (729 citations)
- Reward deficiency syndrome: genetic aspects of behavioral disorders. (529 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Dopaminergic, Dopamine receptor D2, Neuroscience and Dopamine.
His study in Candidate gene, Allele, Genetic linkage, Genetic association and Genotype are all subfields of Genetics.
His Allele research is included under the broader classification of Gene.
His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Protein tyrosine phosphatase and Enzyme.
In his research on the topic of Dopaminergic, Brain stimulation reward, Pathological and Aggression is strongly related with Addiction.
David E. Comings works mostly in the field of Dopamine receptor D2, limiting it down to topics relating to Dopamine transporter and, in certain cases, Serotonin transporter, Tourette syndrome, Dopamine receptor D3 and Norepinephrine transporter, as a part of the same area of interest.
