Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His work on Genetics deals in particular with Genetic association, Allele, Locus, Genetic linkage and Genotype. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Genetic association, ANK3 and Genetic variation is strongly linked to Haplotype.

The Genome-wide association study study combines topics in areas such as Copy-number variation, Linkage disequilibrium, Case-control study, Major depressive disorder and Genetic architecture. His work in Major depressive disorder covers topics such as Meta-analysis which are related to areas like Age of onset. His study looks at the relationship between Schizophrenia and fields such as Disease, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His most cited work include:

  • Biological insights from 108 schizophrenia-associated genetic loci (4834 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)
  • Identification of risk loci with shared effects on five major psychiatric disorders: a genome-wide analysis (2059 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Psychiatry, Schizophrenia and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His studies in Linkage disequilibrium, Allele, Genetic linkage, Genetic association and Gene are all subfields of Genetics research. His Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Case-control study, Genomics, Locus, Major depressive disorder and Genetic architecture.

Douglas F. Levinson has included themes like Internal medicine, Proband and Clinical psychology in his Psychiatry study. His Schizophrenia research incorporates elements of Bipolar disorder, Autism and Genome, Copy-number variation. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic correlation, Polymorphism and Candidate gene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (47.80%)
  • Genome-wide association study (26.10%)
  • Psychiatry (22.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Genome-wide association study (26.10%)
  • Major depressive disorder (14.58%)
  • Genetics (47.80%)

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

Douglas F. Levinson mostly deals with Genome-wide association study, Major depressive disorder, Genetics, Schizophrenia and Psychiatry. The concepts of his Genome-wide association study study are interwoven with issues in Disease, Genetic predisposition, Linkage disequilibrium, Genetic association and Comorbidity. His studies deal with areas such as Meta-analysis, Internal medicine, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Genetic architecture as well as Major depressive disorder.

He regularly ties together related areas like Schizophrenia in his Genetics studies. His work deals with themes such as Dual diagnosis, Bipolar disorder, Psychosis and Autism, which intersect with Schizophrenia. While the research belongs to areas of Psychiatry, he spends his time largely on the problem of Polygenic risk score, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Heterogeneous disorder and Polygene.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide association analyses identify 44 risk variants and refine the genetic architecture of major depression (1131 citations)
  • Contribution of copy number variants to schizophrenia from a genome-wide study of 41,321 subjects (475 citations)
  • Genomic Dissection of Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia, Including 28 Subphenotypes (328 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

His main research concerns Genome-wide association study, Major depressive disorder, Psychiatry, Genetics and Bipolar disorder. His Genome-wide association study research incorporates themes from Case-control study, Schizophrenia, Disease and Genetic architecture. Douglas F. Levinson interconnects Meta-analysis, Genetic heterogeneity, Genome and Genetic association in the investigation of issues within Major depressive disorder.

His Psychiatry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic predisposition and Malnutrition. His work in Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Copy-number variation are all subfields of Genetics research. His work is dedicated to discovering how Bipolar disorder, Mood are connected with Mood disorders and other disciplines.
