Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Public health

His scientific interests lie mostly in Socioeconomic status, Environmental health, Gerontology, Household income and Demography. The Socioeconomic status study combines topics in areas such as Psychological intervention, Disadvantaged, Neuropsychology, Social class and Multilevel model. The various areas that Gavin Turrell examines in his Environmental health study include Vitamin, Retinol and Public health, Health promotion.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Public transport and Environmental planning. His Gerontology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Overweight, Life course approach and Epidemiology. His Demography study incorporates themes from Cross-sectional study, Logistic regression and Confidence interval.

His most cited work include:

  • City planning and population health: a global challenge (389 citations)
  • City planning and population health: a global challenge (389 citations)
  • Childhood socioeconomic position and cognitive function in adulthood (257 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Demography, Socioeconomic status, Environmental health, Gerontology and Disadvantaged. His Demography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cross-sectional study, Disadvantage, Obesity and Multilevel model. His Obesity research incorporates themes from Body mass index, Longitudinal study and Walkability.

He merges Socioeconomic status with Household income in his study. His Environmental health research includes themes of Public health and Health promotion. Gavin Turrell usually deals with Gerontology and limits it to topics linked to Odds ratio and Logistic regression and Confidence interval.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Demography (41.26%)
  • Socioeconomic status (33.24%)
  • Environmental health (26.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Demography (41.26%)
  • Neighbourhood (18.91%)
  • Walkability (8.02%)

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

His primary areas of study are Demography, Neighbourhood, Walkability, Disadvantaged and Obesity. His study in Demography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Longitudinal study, Odds, Recreation, Socioeconomic status and Multilevel model. His research in Walkability intersects with topics in Mediation, Type 2 diabetes and Environmental health.

His research integrates issues of McNemar's test, Rasch model and Public transport in his study of Environmental health. His studies deal with areas such as Disadvantage and Public health as well as Disadvantaged. His studies in Obesity integrate themes in fields like Body mass index, Gerontology and Confounding.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Public open spaces and leisure-time walking in Brazilian adults (176 citations)
  • Built environment and cardio-metabolic health: systematic review and meta-analysis of longitudinal studies. (37 citations)
  • Built environment and cardio-metabolic health: systematic review and meta-analysis of longitudinal studies. (37 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Public health

His scientific interests lie mostly in Demography, Neighbourhood, Body mass index, Walkability and Obesity. His Demography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Psychological intervention, Longitudinal study, Response rate and Multilevel model. He works mostly in the field of Multilevel model, limiting it down to topics relating to TRIPS architecture and, in certain cases, Disadvantaged.

His study explores the link between Walkability and topics such as Type 2 diabetes that cross with problems in Meta-analysis and Gerontology. His Public transport study also includes

  • Occupational safety and health which intersects with area such as Environmental health,
  • Traffic congestion that connect with fields like Population health. Disadvantage and Household income are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary work.
