Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Allele, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Immunology. His is doing research in Eye color, Locus, Cutaneous melanoma, Genetic association and Linkage disequilibrium, both of which are found in Genetics. David L. Duffy has included themes like Odds ratio, Receptor, Genotype and Skin cancer in his Allele study.

His studies examine the connections between Genome-wide association study and genetics, as well as such issues in Nevus, with regards to Susceptibility locus and Cohort. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gene interaction, Occupational asthma and Genome. In general Immunology study, his work on Asthma and Atopic dermatitis often relates to the realm of Serum iron, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His most cited work include:

  • A genome-wide search for asthma susceptibility loci in ethnically diverse populations (640 citations)
  • A method for meta-analysis of molecular association studies. (488 citations)
  • Dating the Origin of the CCR5-Δ32 AIDS-Resistance Allele by the Coalescence of Haplotypes (450 citations)

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

David L. Duffy mainly investigates Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Melanoma, Genome-wide association study and Immunology. Genetic linkage, Locus, Allele, Gene and Quantitative trait locus are the core of his Genetics study. He combines subjects such as Internal medicine and Genotype with his study of Allele.

His Single-nucleotide polymorphism study combines topics in areas such as Odds ratio, Haplotype and Candidate gene. His research in Melanoma tackles topics such as Dermatology which are related to areas like Case-control study. His Genome-wide association study research includes elements of Evolutionary biology and Eye color.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (50.39%)
  • Single-nucleotide polymorphism (21.30%)
  • Melanoma (22.34%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Melanoma (22.34%)
  • Genetics (50.39%)
  • Genome-wide association study (17.14%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Melanoma, Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Dermatology and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His Melanoma research includes themes of Phenotype, CDKN2A and Genotype. His studies deal with areas such as Internal medicine, Outpatient clinic, Oncology, Pathology and Allele as well as Genotype.

His Genetics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Sun exposure. His Genome-wide association study study also includes fields such as

  • Evolutionary biology and related Eye color,
  • Heritability that intertwine with fields like Asthma. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Odds ratio.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Shared genetic origin of asthma, hay fever and eczema elucidates allergic disease biology (207 citations)
  • Genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals of European ancestry identifies new loci explaining a substantial fraction of hair color variation and heritability (52 citations)
  • Novel pleiotropic risk loci for melanoma and nevus density implicate multiple biological pathways (45 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Melanoma, Genome-wide association study, Dermatology and Cutaneous melanoma. His Genetics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Asthma and Disease. His research in Melanoma intersects with topics in Twin study, Absolute risk reduction, Outpatient clinic, CDKN2A and Glutathione S-Transferase pi.

His study in Genome-wide association study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Phenotype, Expression quantitative trait loci, Linkage disequilibrium and Immunology. The Cutaneous melanoma study combines topics in areas such as European population and Confidence interval. His biological study deals with issues like Nevus, which deal with fields such as Genetic architecture.
