Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Molecular biology, Virus and Bipolar disorder are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Schizophrenia, Allele, Genetic association and ANK3. His Schizophrenia research includes themes of Psychosis and Disease.

His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cell culture, Restriction enzyme, GTP' and Recombinant DNA. The concepts of his Virus study are interwoven with issues in Mutant and Metabolism. Edward M. Scolnick interconnects Clinical psychology and Zinc finger protein 804A in the investigation of issues within Multifactorial Inheritance.

His most cited work include:

  • Biological insights from 108 schizophrenia-associated genetic loci (4834 citations)
  • Common polygenic variation contributes to risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (3630 citations)
  • Common polygenic variation contributes to risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (3630 citations)

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

Edward M. Scolnick spends much of his time researching Molecular biology, Virology, Virus, Genetics and Gene. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of RNA, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and Biochemistry, DNA. His research integrates issues of Cell culture and Recombinant DNA in his study of Virology.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Virus, Antibody is strongly linked to Antigen. His research on Genetics often connects related topics like Schizophrenia. His Genome-wide association study research focuses on subjects like Bipolar disorder, which are linked to ANK3.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (39.30%)
  • Virology (29.95%)
  • Virus (27.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Genetics (22.19%)
  • Genome-wide association study (10.16%)
  • Schizophrenia (8.56%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Schizophrenia, Genetic association and Schizophrenia. His study in Genetics concentrates on Copy-number variation, Allele, Exome sequencing, Phenotype and Gene. His study in Genome-wide association study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Psychosis, Linkage disequilibrium, Haplotype and Case-control study.

His Schizophrenia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bipolar disorder, Disease and Gi alpha subunit. His work carried out in the field of Bipolar disorder brings together such families of science as Meta-analysis, Genetic heterogeneity and Age of onset. The study incorporates disciplines such as Internal medicine, Genotyping and Oncology in addition to Genetic association.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Biological insights from 108 schizophrenia-associated genetic loci (4834 citations)
  • Genetic relationship between five psychiatric disorders estimated from genome-wide SNPs (1570 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study identifies five new schizophrenia loci (1474 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder and Genetic association. His Genome-wide association study research incorporates themes from Meta-analysis, Case-control study and Linkage disequilibrium. His Copy-number variation, Allele, Multifactorial Inheritance and Exome study are his primary interests in Genetics.

Edward M. Scolnick is involved in the study of Schizophrenia that focuses on Psychiatric genetics in particular. His studies in Bipolar disorder integrate themes in fields like Psychosis and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. The concepts of his Genetic association study are interwoven with issues in Exome sequencing, Neuroscience and Genomics.
