Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Autism
  • Internal medicine
  • Cognition

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Autism, Developmental disorder, Developmental psychology, Autism spectrum disorder and Genetics. Her Autism study improves the overall literature in Psychiatry. The concepts of her Developmental disorder study are interwoven with issues in Cognitive psychology, El Niño, Gaze and Attentional control.

Her Developmental psychology research incorporates themes from Social relation, Imitation, Distress and Activities of daily living. Her Autism spectrum disorder research incorporates elements of Psychological intervention, Proband, Event-related potential, Electroencephalography and Functional magnetic resonance imaging. Her study looks at the intersection of Genetics and topics like Genome-wide association study with Genetic association.

Her most cited work include:

  • Synaptic, transcriptional and chromatin genes disrupted in autism (1674 citations)
  • Functional impact of global rare copy number variation in autism spectrum disorders (1644 citations)
  • Genetic relationship between five psychiatric disorders estimated from genome-wide SNPs (1634 citations)

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

Geraldine Dawson mainly investigates Autism, Autism spectrum disorder, Developmental psychology, Developmental disorder and Clinical psychology. Her Autism study is concerned with Psychiatry in general. Her work in Autism spectrum disorder tackles topics such as Eye tracking which are related to areas like Eye movement.

Her research investigates the connection with Developmental psychology and areas like Electroencephalography which intersect with concerns in Frontal lobe. Her work investigates the relationship between Developmental disorder and topics such as Genetics that intersect with problems in Genetic association. Her study in Audiology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Facial expression and Amygdala.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Autism (96.31%)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (56.02%)
  • Developmental psychology (47.67%)

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

  • Autism spectrum disorder (56.02%)
  • Autism (96.31%)
  • Audiology (16.95%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Autism spectrum disorder, Autism, Audiology, Clinical psychology and Clinical trial. Her Autism spectrum disorder study is related to the wider topic of Developmental psychology. Geraldine Dawson has included themes like Eye tracking and Gaze in her Autism study.

Her Audiology research includes themes of Facial expression, Preference, Early detection and Electroencephalography. Her Clinical psychology research integrates issues from Comorbidity, Cognition, Actigraphy and Anxiety. Her research integrates issues of Randomized controlled trial, Mesenchymal stem cell and Medical physics in her study of Clinical trial.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A Multisite Randomized Controlled Two-Phase Trial of the Early Start Denver Model Compared to Treatment as Usual (46 citations)
  • Computer Vision Analysis Captures Atypical Attention in Toddlers with Autism. (44 citations)
  • Enhancing Low-Intensity Coaching in Parent Implemented Early Start Denver Model Intervention for Early Autism: A Randomized Comparison Treatment Trial. (34 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cognition
  • Gene

Her primary areas of investigation include Autism spectrum disorder, Autism, Clinical trial, Clinical psychology and Intervention. The Autism spectrum disorder study combines topics in areas such as Nonverbal communication, Neurology, Medical physics and Audiology. Neurodevelopmental disorder is the focus of her Autism research.

Her studies examine the connections between Clinical trial and genetics, as well as such issues in Randomized controlled trial, with regards to Pervasive developmental disorder, Prospective cohort study, Intellectual disability and Pediatrics. Her Clinical psychology study incorporates themes from Irritability, Cognition, Actigraphy and Anxiety. Geraldine Dawson has researched Anxiety in several fields, including Developmental psychology and Public health.
