Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer

His primary areas of study are Surgery, Transsphenoidal surgery, Pituitary adenoma, Internal medicine and Adenoma. His study looks at the intersection of Surgery and topics like Cushing syndrome with Pituitary microadenoma. His Transsphenoidal surgery research incorporates themes from Cushing's disease, Transsphenoidal approach, Craniopharyngioma, Sella turcica and Microsurgery.

His Pituitary adenoma research includes elements of Pituitary neoplasm, Prolactin, Acromegaly and Pituitary tumors. His Internal medicine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Endocrinology and Glioma. Edward R. Laws has researched Adenoma in several fields, including Pituitary gland, Gastroenterology, El Niño, Anterior pituitary and Hypopituitarism.

His most cited work include:

  • Acromegaly: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline (820 citations)
  • Randomized controlled trial of intraputamenal glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor infusion in Parkinson disease. (804 citations)
  • Randomized, double-blind trial of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in PD (699 citations)

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

Edward R. Laws mostly deals with Surgery, Transsphenoidal surgery, Internal medicine, Pituitary adenoma and Pathology. His studies in Surgery integrate themes in fields like Cushing's disease, Magnetic resonance imaging and Cushing syndrome. His research in Transsphenoidal surgery intersects with topics in Retrospective cohort study, Craniopharyngioma, Sella turcica, Radiology and Transsphenoidal approach.

His Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology. His Pituitary adenoma research entails a greater understanding of Adenoma. His Adenoma research integrates issues from Pituitary neoplasm and Pituitary gland.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Surgery (38.20%)
  • Transsphenoidal surgery (19.56%)
  • Internal medicine (19.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Surgery (38.20%)
  • Transsphenoidal surgery (19.56%)
  • Internal medicine (19.10%)

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

Edward R. Laws focuses on Surgery, Transsphenoidal surgery, Internal medicine, Pituitary adenoma and Pathology. His Diabetes insipidus research extends to Surgery, which is thematically connected. His work deals with themes such as Retrospective cohort study, Magnetic resonance imaging, Radiology, Complication and Prolactinoma, which intersect with Transsphenoidal surgery.

The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Gastroenterology, Brain tumor, Endocrinology and Oncology. His Pituitary adenoma study combines topics in areas such as Endocrine system and Pituitary tumors. His research investigates the connection between Pathology and topics such as Pituitary gland that intersect with problems in Anterior pituitary.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Acromegaly: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline (820 citations)
  • Exome sequencing identifies BRAF mutations in papillary craniopharyngiomas (251 citations)
  • From pituitary adenoma to pituitary neuroendocrine tumor (PitNET): an International Pituitary Pathology Club proposal (135 citations)

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

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer

Edward R. Laws spends much of his time researching Surgery, Transsphenoidal surgery, Pituitary neoplasm, Internal medicine and Pituitary gland. His Surgery research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Pituitary adenoma and Diabetes insipidus. His studies deal with areas such as Retrospective cohort study, Magnetic resonance imaging, Complication, Prolactinoma and Cohort as well as Transsphenoidal surgery.

His study in Pituitary neoplasm is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cancer research, Spindle cell oncocytoma, Pathology, Pituitary tumors and Optic chiasm. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Gastroenterology, Brain tumor, Endocrinology and Oncology. Edward R. Laws has included themes like Perioperative and Endocrine system in his Pituitary gland study.
