Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

Erik Thorsby mostly deals with Immunology, Human leukocyte antigen, Genetics, Haplotype and Allele. Erik Thorsby combines subjects such as Cancer research and Primary sclerosing cholangitis with his study of Immunology. Human leukocyte antigen is a subfield of Antigen that Erik Thorsby studies.

His work deals with themes such as Lamina propria, Cytotoxic T cell, Small intestine and Molecular biology, which intersect with Antigen. His work carried out in the field of Haplotype brings together such families of science as HLA-DQB1 and Negatively associated. The Allele study combines topics in areas such as Genetic variation, Coeliac disease, Restriction fragment length polymorphism, Genotype and Typing.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence for a primary association of celiac disease to a particular HLA-DQ alpha/beta heterodimer. (792 citations)
  • HLA susceptibility genes in celiac disease: Genetic mapping and role in pathogenesis (511 citations)
  • Gliadin-specific, HLA-DQ(alpha 10501,beta 10201) restricted T cells isolated from the small intestinal mucosa of celiac disease patients. (507 citations)

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

His main research concerns Immunology, Human leukocyte antigen, Genetics, Molecular biology and Antigen. His Immunology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cytotoxic T cell and In vitro. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including HLA Complex, Typing, Major histocompatibility complex and Disease.

Allele, Haplotype, Gene, Linkage disequilibrium and Locus are among the areas of Genetics where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cell culture, Epitope, Antibody, Monoclonal antibody and Peptide. He has researched Antigen in several fields, including Cell, Immune system and Virology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (44.71%)
  • Human leukocyte antigen (39.42%)
  • Genetics (33.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2016)?

  • Immunology (44.71%)
  • Human leukocyte antigen (39.42%)
  • Genetics (33.60%)

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

His primary areas of study are Immunology, Human leukocyte antigen, Genetics, Haplotype and Antigen. The various areas that he examines in his Immunology study include Internal medicine and Primary sclerosing cholangitis. His research in Human leukocyte antigen intersects with topics in Evolutionary biology, Genetic diversity, HLA Complex, Multiple sclerosis and Cohort.

His Genetics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Type 1 diabetes. His Linkage disequilibrium study in the realm of Haplotype connects with subjects such as Norwegian. Erik Thorsby has included themes like Molecular biology, Cytotoxic T cell and Typing in his Antigen study.

Between 2006 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • HLA class I and II typing using cells positively selected from blood by immunomagnetic isolation--a fast and reliable technique. (257 citations)
  • Relative predispositional effects of HLA class II DRB1-DQB1 haplotypes and genotypes on type 1 diabetes: a meta-analysis. (149 citations)
  • Cholangiocarcinoma in primary sclerosing cholangitis is associated with NKG2D polymorphisms. (100 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Erik Thorsby mainly focuses on Immunology, Human leukocyte antigen, Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Primary sclerosing cholangitis. His Immunology research incorporates themes from Receptor, Cancer and Genotype. His research integrates issues of Cytotoxic T cell, HLA Complex, Typing and Major histocompatibility complex in his study of Human leukocyte antigen.

His study focuses on the intersection of Typing and fields such as Virology with connections in the field of Antigen. In general Genetics study, his work on Haplotype, Linkage and Recombination Fraction often relates to the realm of Danish, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research incorporates elements of Genetic variation and Allele.
