Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

E.J.C. de Geus spends much of his time researching Genome-wide association study, Heritability, Twin study, Clinical psychology and Genetics. The concepts of his Genome-wide association study study are interwoven with issues in Major depressive disorder, Bipolar disorder and Genetic association. His Heritability study incorporates themes from Genetic architecture and Electroencephalography.

E.J.C. de Geus interconnects Life satisfaction, Developmental psychology, Sibling, Well-being and Demography in the investigation of issues within Twin study. He has included themes like Extraversion and introversion, Sensation seeking, Depression and Anxiety in his Clinical psychology study. E.J.C. de Geus specializes in Genetics, namely Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

His most cited work include:

  • Effects of Work Stress on Ambulatory Blood Pressure, Heart Rate, and Heart Rate Variability (529 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study of major depressive disorder: new results, meta-analysis, and lessons learned (365 citations)
  • Genome-wide association for major depressive disorder: a possible role for the presynaptic protein piccolo (337 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Heritability, Internal medicine, Genetics, Developmental psychology and Clinical psychology. His Heritability research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic architecture, Statistics, Demography and Electroencephalography. His Internal medicine research integrates issues from Endocrinology and Cardiology.

The various areas that E.J.C. de Geus examines in his Developmental psychology study include Cognition and Audiology. His Clinical psychology study which covers Depression that intersects with Anxiety. As a member of one scientific family, E.J.C. de Geus mostly works in the field of Genome-wide association study, focusing on Bipolar disorder and, on occasion, Schizophrenia.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Heritability (18.62%)
  • Internal medicine (16.21%)
  • Genetics (15.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Single-nucleotide polymorphism (10.00%)
  • Genome-wide association study (11.03%)
  • Genetics (15.52%)

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

His primary areas of study are Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Major depressive disorder and Heritability. His research in Single-nucleotide polymorphism intersects with topics in Internal medicine, Case-control study and Endocrinology. His work carried out in the field of Genome-wide association study brings together such families of science as Odds ratio and Bipolar disorder.

His Major depressive disorder research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic correlation and Clinical psychology. His studies deal with areas such as Demography and Hippocampus, Neuroscience as well as Heritability. Within one scientific family, E.J.C. de Geus focuses on topics pertaining to Pleiotropy under Psychiatry, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Developmental psychology.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Genomic Relationships, Novel Loci, and Pleiotropic Mechanisms across Eight Psychiatric Disorders (242 citations)
  • Childhood intelligence is heritable, highly polygenic and associated with FNBP1L (181 citations)
  • Collaborative meta-analysis finds no evidence of a strong interaction between stress and 5-HTTLPR genotype contributing to the development of depression (154 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Psychiatry

E.J.C. de Geus mainly focuses on Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic architecture, Major depressive disorder and Genetics. His Genome-wide association study research includes elements of Bipolar disorder and Psychiatry, Schizophrenia. E.J.C. de Geus is interested in Genetic association, which is a branch of Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

As part of one scientific family, E.J.C. de Geus deals mainly with the area of Major depressive disorder, narrowing it down to issues related to the Genetic correlation, and often Bioinformatics. Genetics is frequently linked to Borderline personality disorder in his study. In his study, Heritability is inextricably linked to Amygdala, which falls within the broad field of Twin study.
