Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Cancer
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Genome, Genomics, Cancer research and Computational biology. Her Genetics research focuses on Gene, Human genome, DNA sequencing, Reference genome and Exome sequencing. Her Genome research incorporates elements of Evolutionary biology, ENCODE and Sequence analysis.

She has included themes like Epigenetics and Gene expression profiling in her Genomics study. Elaine R. Mardis has researched Cancer research in several fields, including Cancer, Breast cancer, DNA methylation and Mutation, KRAS. Her work in Computational biology tackles topics such as Hybrid genome assembly which are related to areas like DNA sequencing theory.

Her most cited work include:

  • Initial sequencing and analysis of the human genome. (19308 citations)
  • A global reference for human genetic variation. (8799 citations)
  • An obesity-associated gut microbiome with increased capacity for energy harvest (7827 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Genetics, Genome, Cancer, Cancer research and Computational biology. Her study in Gene, Whole genome sequencing, Mutation, DNA sequencing and Exome sequencing is carried out as part of her Genetics studies. Her Genome study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Evolutionary biology.

Her research in Cancer intersects with topics in Precision medicine, Immune system and Bioinformatics. As a member of one scientific family, Elaine R. Mardis mostly works in the field of Cancer research, focusing on Leukemia and, on occasion, Myeloid. Her study in Computational biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sequence analysis and Massive parallel sequencing.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (37.08%)
  • Genome (22.95%)
  • Cancer (23.27%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Cancer research (23.27%)
  • Computational biology (18.78%)
  • Cancer (23.27%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Cancer research, Computational biology, Cancer, Somatic cell and Oncology. Her Cancer research research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Oncogene, Gene, Immune system and Exome. Her studies deal with areas such as Exome sequencing, Genome, Massive parallel sequencing, Genomics and Pediatric cancer as well as Computational biology.

Elaine R. Mardis interconnects Germline mutation and Haplotype in the investigation of issues within Genome. Her Somatic cell study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Genetics. Her research in Genetics is mostly concerned with Inheritance Patterns.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Pan-cancer analysis of whole genomes (751 citations)
  • Genomic and Functional Approaches to Understanding Cancer Aneuploidy (368 citations)
  • Erratum: Comprehensive Characterization of Cancer Driver Genes and Mutations (ARTICLE (2018) 173(2) (371–385), (S009286741830237X), (10.1016/j.cell.2018.02.060)) (182 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Cancer
  • DNA

Elaine R. Mardis spends much of her time researching Cancer research, Computational biology, Cancer, Mutation and Somatic cell. Her Cancer research research incorporates themes from Oncogene, microRNA, Gene, Somatic evolution in cancer and Metastasis. Her studies in Computational biology integrate themes in fields like Genome, Massive parallel sequencing, Sequence annotation, Genomics and Sequence analysis.

Her Genome study incorporates themes from Gene duplication, Germline mutation and Frameshift mutation. Her Cancer research includes elements of Missense mutation, Immunosuppression and Brain tumor. Her Mutation study results in a more complete grasp of Genetics.
