Breast cancer, Internal medicine, Cancer, Oncology and Genetics are his primary areas of study. Gad Rennert has researched Breast cancer in several fields, including Odds ratio, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gynecology and Risk factor. The Odds ratio study combines topics in areas such as Epidemiology and Family history.

His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Endocrinology and Surgery. His work carried out in the field of Cancer brings together such families of science as Cancer research, Germline mutation and Loss of heterozygosity. His Oncology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Prostate cancer, Gene mutation, Cancer registry, Hazard ratio and Cancer prevention.

His most cited work include:

  • Statins and the Risk of Colorectal Cancer (631 citations)
  • Genome-wide association scan identifies a colorectal cancer susceptibility locus on 11q23 and replicates risk loci at 8q24 and 18q21. (534 citations)
  • Network modeling links breast cancer susceptibility and centrosome dysfunction. (531 citations)

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

Gad Rennert mostly deals with Internal medicine, Oncology, Colorectal cancer, Cancer and Breast cancer. Internal medicine is often connected to Endocrinology in his work. His work focuses on many connections between Oncology and other disciplines, such as Epidemiology, that overlap with his field of interest in Incidence.

Genetics covers Gad Rennert research in Colorectal cancer. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Germline mutation, Surgery, Family history, Gerontology and Aspirin. Gad Rennert interconnects Cancer research, Gynecology and Risk factor in the investigation of issues within Breast cancer.

  • Internal medicine (68.94%)
  • Oncology (39.06%)
  • Colorectal cancer (33.65%)

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

Gad Rennert spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Oncology, Colorectal cancer, Breast cancer and Cancer. His study explores the link between Internal medicine and topics such as Mendelian randomization that cross with problems in Gastroenterology. The various areas that Gad Rennert examines in his Oncology study include Body mass index, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Lung and Confidence interval.

His research in Colorectal cancer intersects with topics in Genome-wide association study, Epidemiology, Case-control study, Genetic association and Genotype. His Breast cancer research is multidisciplinary, relying on both CHEK2, Cancer research, Mutation and Risk factor. The Cancer study combines topics in areas such as Mendelian Randomization Analysis and Candidate gene.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Polygenic Risk Scores for Prediction of Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Subtypes (257 citations)
  • Discovery of common and rare genetic risk variants for colorectal cancer (131 citations)
  • Discovery of common and rare genetic risk variants for colorectal cancer (131 citations)
