2013 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Asthma, Internal medicine, Environmental health, Pediatrics and Confidence interval. Frank D. Gilliland interconnects Age of onset, Genome-wide association study, Epidemiology and Risk factor in the investigation of issues within Asthma. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Endocrinology and Oncology.

His research in the fields of Environmental exposure overlaps with other disciplines such as Pollutant. His Pediatrics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Pregnancy, Tobacco smoke and Passive smoking. The study incorporates disciplines such as Odds ratio and Ozone in addition to Confidence interval.

His most cited work include:

  • The effect of air pollution on lung development from 10 to 18 years of age. (1027 citations)
  • Urinary and sexual function after radical prostatectomy for clinically localized prostate cancer : The Prostate Cancer Outcomes Study (1006 citations)
  • Urinary and sexual function after radical prostatectomy for clinically localized prostate cancer : The Prostate Cancer Outcomes Study (1006 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Asthma, Internal medicine, Environmental health, Immunology and Genetics. His study on Asthma also encompasses disciplines like

  • Confidence interval most often made with reference to Odds ratio,
  • Cohort, which have a strong connection to Cohort study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Endocrinology and Oncology.

His study looks at the relationship between Environmental health and topics such as Public health, which overlap with Epidemiology. His research in Immunology intersects with topics in Respiratory disease, Allele and Genotype. His study in Prostate cancer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gynecology, Sexual function and Prostate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Asthma (26.86%)
  • Internal medicine (21.18%)
  • Environmental health (16.59%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Asthma (26.86%)
  • Environmental health (16.59%)
  • Obesity (7.42%)

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

Frank D. Gilliland mostly deals with Asthma, Environmental health, Obesity, Immunology and Cohort. Frank D. Gilliland studies Asthma, namely Exhaled nitric oxide. Frank D. Gilliland focuses mostly in the field of Environmental health, narrowing it down to topics relating to Public health and, in certain cases, Air quality index.

In Obesity, Frank D. Gilliland works on issues like Type 2 diabetes, which are connected to Internal medicine. His Immunology research incorporates themes from Epigenetics, Disease, Methylation and DNA methylation. The concepts of his Methylation study are interwoven with issues in Physiology, Genotype and CpG site.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Multiancestry association study identifies new asthma risk loci that colocalize with immune-cell enhancer marks (203 citations)
  • Ambient Air Pollutants Have Adverse Effects on Insulin and Glucose Homeostasis in Mexican Americans (70 citations)
  • Epigenome-wide meta-analysis of DNA methylation and childhood asthma (65 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cancer

His scientific interests lie mostly in Asthma, Internal medicine, Environmental health, Obesity and Immunology. His Asthma research integrates issues from Nitrogen dioxide, Incidence, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Pediatrics and Cohort. His Pediatrics study combines topics in areas such as Wheeze, Age of onset and Risk factor.

His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Endocrinology, Environmental exposure and Cardiology. His Environmental health research includes elements of Young adult, Air quality index and Public health. His studies deal with areas such as Body mass index, Gut flora and Fructose as well as Obesity.
