Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Internal medicine and Gene. His Genome-wide association study research includes themes of Bioinformatics, Immunology, Genetic association, Locus and Genetic architecture. His work carried out in the field of Locus brings together such families of science as Meta-analysis, FTO gene and Genetic variation.

In his study, Obesity is inextricably linked to Body mass index, which falls within the broad field of Genetics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sex steroid and Genetic predisposition in addition to Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Transmembrane transporter activity and Cardiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)
  • Systematic identification of trans eQTLs as putative drivers of known disease associations (1249 citations)
  • Genome-wide association analyses identify 44 risk variants and refine the genetic architecture of major depression (1131 citations)

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

His main research concerns Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Endocrinology. His studies deal with areas such as Meta-analysis, Disease, Genetic association, Genetic architecture and Candidate gene as well as Genome-wide association study. Georg Homuth has researched Genetic association in several fields, including Immunology and Bioinformatics.

Gene, Locus, Quantitative trait locus, Phenotype and SNP are among the areas of Genetics where he concentrates his study. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Oncology, Study of Health in Pomerania and Cardiology. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Allele.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genome-wide association study (44.59%)
  • Genetics (41.31%)
  • Internal medicine (24.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Genetics (41.31%)
  • Genome-wide association study (44.59%)
  • Internal medicine (24.26%)

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

Georg Homuth spends much of his time researching Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Microbiome and Endocrinology. His work on Lipid profile expands to the thematically related Genetics. His research integrates issues of Linkage disequilibrium, Exome, Genetic association, Genetic variation and Genetic architecture in his study of Genome-wide association study.

His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Gastroenterology and Study of Health in Pomerania. His work deals with themes such as Diabetes mellitus, Metabolic syndrome, Disease and Immunology, which intersect with Microbiome. The Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Missense mutation and microRNA.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex. (116 citations)
  • New genetic signals for lung function highlight pathways and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease associations across multiple ancestries (105 citations)
  • ENIGMA and global neuroscience: A decade of large-scale studies of the brain in health and disease across more than 40 countries (97 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Immunology, Genetic architecture and Genetic association. While the research belongs to areas of Genome-wide association study, Georg Homuth spends his time largely on the problem of Polymorphism, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Phylogenetics, Sleep in non-human animals and Lipid profile. His research on Genetics frequently links to adjacent areas such as Schizophrenia.

His Immunology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Feces, Colonization, Case-control study, Helicobacter and Risk factor. His Genetic architecture research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Meta-analysis, Epidemiology, Neuroscience and Biobank. His Genetic association study combines topics in areas such as Major histocompatibility complex, Lung function, Genetic predisposition and Haplotype.
