Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study Debbie A Lawlor is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Cancer

Her study focuses on the intersection of Demography and fields such as Population with connections in the field of Environmental health. In most of her Environmental health studies, her work intersects topics such as Population. She is researching Pregnancy as part of the investigation of Offspring and Birth weight. Her Birth weight study frequently links to related topics such as Genetics. Debbie A Lawlor performs integrative Genetics and Offspring research in her work. Cohort combines with fields such as Cohort study and Demography in her work. Debbie A Lawlor merges many fields, such as Cohort study and Cohort, in her writings. In her articles, she combines various disciplines, including Internal medicine and Pediatrics. Gene and Genetic variants are frequently intertwined in her study.

Her most cited work include:

  • A Common Variant in the FTO Gene Is Associated with Body Mass Index and Predisposes to Childhood and Adult Obesity (3835 citations)
  • Diabetes mellitus, fasting blood glucose concentration, and risk of vascular disease: a collaborative meta-analysis of 102 prospective studies (3428 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2601 citations)

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

Her Demography research focuses on Population and how it relates to Environmental health. Her Population research extends to the thematically linked field of Environmental health. Debbie A Lawlor is doing genetic studies as part of her Offspring and Birth weight and Pregnancy investigations. Her study in Genetics extends to Birth weight with its themes. Debbie A Lawlor integrates many fields, such as Genetics and Offspring, in her works. Her Endocrinology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Diabetes mellitus and Body mass index. In her papers, she integrates diverse fields, such as Diabetes mellitus and Endocrinology. Among her research on Cohort, you can see a combination of other fields of science like Cohort study and Demography. Debbie A Lawlor undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Cohort study and Cohort through her works.

Debbie A Lawlor most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (78.91%)

In recent works Debbie A Lawlor was focusing on the following fields of study:

Other disciplines of study, such as Obstetrics and Body mass index, are mixed together with her Pregnancy studies. While working in this field, Debbie A Lawlor studies both Obstetrics and Pregnancy. In her articles, she combines various disciplines, including Internal medicine and Pediatrics. In her research, she undertakes multidisciplinary study on Genetics and Physiology. She undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Physiology and Genetics in her work. She combines Gene and Bioinformatics in her studies. Debbie A Lawlor undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Bioinformatics and Gene in her work. Her Genotype study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Genetic variants. Much of her study explores Genetic variants relationship to Mendelian randomization.

Between 2020 and 2022, her most popular works were:

  • Mental health before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in two longitudinal UK population cohorts (234 citations)
  • Genomic and phenotypic insights from an atlas of genetic effects on DNA methylation (121 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited works focused on:

  • Gene
  • Pregnancy
  • Genetics

Her Cohort study research overlaps with other disciplines such as Cohort and Odds ratio. In her work, Debbie A Lawlor performs multidisciplinary research in Cohort and Cohort study. Her research on Odds ratio frequently links to adjacent areas such as Internal medicine. Many of her studies on Internal medicine involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Clinical trial. Her multidisciplinary approach integrates Genetics and Physiology in her work. Debbie A Lawlor integrates Physiology and Endocrinology in her studies. She incorporates Endocrinology and Diabetes mellitus in her research.
