Awards & Achievements

1995 - Metlife Foundation Award for Medical Research in Alzheimer's Disease

Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Statistics

Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Genetic linkage, Locus and Allele are her primary areas of study. Her Genetics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Alzheimer's disease and Autism. Her research in Genome-wide association study focuses on subjects like Genetic association, which are connected to Genomics, Neuroscience and Schizophrenia.

Her Genetic linkage research incorporates themes from Computational biology and Pedigree chart. Her Locus research includes themes of Genetic marker, Genetic heterogeneity and Chromosome. Her Copy-number variation research integrates issues from Intellectual disability and Genetic architecture.

Her most cited work include:

  • Candidate gene for the chromosome 1 familial Alzheimer's disease locus (2222 citations)
  • Functional impact of global rare copy number variation in autism spectrum disorders (1592 citations)
  • Genetic relationship between five psychiatric disorders estimated from genome-wide SNPs (1570 citations)

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

Ellen M. Wijsman mostly deals with Genetics, Genetic linkage, Pedigree chart, Locus and Linkage. Her Allele, Gene, Quantitative trait locus, Genome-wide association study and Gene mapping study are her primary interests in Genetics. The Genome-wide association study study combines topics in areas such as Genotyping, Autism, Genetic association and Copy-number variation.

Her Genetic linkage research incorporates elements of Genetic marker, Alzheimer's disease, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Computational biology and Candidate gene. Ellen M. Wijsman has researched Pedigree chart in several fields, including Imputation, Genetic heterogeneity and Missing data. The Locus study which covers Dyslexia that intersects with Cognitive psychology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (64.20%)
  • Genetic linkage (32.51%)
  • Pedigree chart (18.93%)

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

  • Genetics (64.20%)
  • Disease (14.40%)
  • Pedigree chart (18.93%)

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

Ellen M. Wijsman mainly focuses on Genetics, Disease, Pedigree chart, Genome-wide association study and Computational biology. Her work carried out in the field of Genetics brings together such families of science as Alzheimer's disease and Late onset. Her Disease study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genetic variation, Whole genome sequencing, Genotype and Candidate gene.

Her studies in Pedigree chart integrate themes in fields like Markov chain Monte Carlo, Statistics, Genetic linkage, Genetic association and Imputation. Her Genome-wide association study study also includes fields such as

  • Genotyping that intertwine with fields like Haplotype,
  • Imputation which intersects with area such as Correlation and dependence,
  • Bioinformatics which connect with Intellectual disability and Fragile X syndrome. While the research belongs to areas of Computational biology, Ellen M. Wijsman spends her time largely on the problem of Data mining, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Haplotype sharing, Marker selection, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Genetic marker.

Between 2012 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Genetic relationship between five psychiatric disorders estimated from genome-wide SNPs (1570 citations)
  • Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain (726 citations)
  • Convergence of Genes and Cellular Pathways Dysregulated in Autism Spectrum Disorders (605 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Statistics

Ellen M. Wijsman focuses on Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Genotyping, Gene and Genetic association. All of her Genetics and Exome sequencing, Pedigree chart, Missense mutation, Linkage and Genetic variation investigations are sub-components of the entire Genetics study. Her Linkage research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic linkage, Human genetics and Artificial intelligence.

In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Genome-wide association study, CHD2, Intellectual disability, Bioinformatics and Fragile X syndrome is strongly linked to Copy-number variation. Her Gene research integrates issues from Apolipoprotein E, Disease, Dementia and Autism. Her research in Genetic association intersects with topics in Genetic heterogeneity, Psychiatric genetics and Genomics.
