Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Alzheimer's disease, Internal medicine and Apolipoprotein E. His Genetics course of study focuses on Autism and Intellectual disability. His Genome-wide association study study incorporates themes from PICALM, Temporal cortex, Linkage disequilibrium and Genetic association.

His studies deal with areas such as Cerebrospinal fluid, Case-control study, Dementia, Age of onset and Degenerative disease as well as Alzheimer's disease. His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology, Oncology and Allele frequency. His research in Locus intersects with topics in Allele and Gene mapping.

His most cited work include:

  • Meta-analysis of 74,046 individuals identifies 11 new susceptibility loci for Alzheimer's disease (2614 citations)
  • Secreted amyloid β-protein similar to that in the senile plaques of Alzheimer's disease is increased in vivo by the presenilin 1 and 2 and APP mutations linked to familial Alzheimer's disease (2304 citations)
  • Candidate gene for the chromosome 1 familial Alzheimer's disease locus (2222 citations)

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

His main research concerns Genetics, Disease, Alzheimer's disease, Internal medicine and Apolipoprotein E. His work in Genome-wide association study, Gene, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Allele and Locus is related to Genetics. In his study, Frontotemporal dementia is inextricably linked to Progressive supranuclear palsy, which falls within the broad field of Genome-wide association study.

His Disease research incorporates themes from Computational biology, Neuroscience and Genome. His Alzheimer's disease research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Degenerative disease, Immunology and Age of onset. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Endocrinology and Oncology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (58.22%)
  • Disease (31.61%)
  • Alzheimer's disease (22.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Disease (31.61%)
  • Genetics (58.22%)
  • Genome-wide association study (16.90%)

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

Gerard D. Schellenberg mostly deals with Disease, Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Gene and Apolipoprotein E. He combines subjects such as Meta-analysis, Genome, Whole genome sequencing and Computational biology with his study of Disease. Candidate gene is closely connected to Alzheimer's disease in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Genetics.

His research investigates the connection between Genome-wide association study and topics such as Genetic association that intersect with problems in Linkage disequilibrium and Endophenotype. His work on Genetic variation, SORL1 and Genotyping as part of general Gene research is often related to High resolution, thus linking different fields of science. The various areas that he examines in his Apolipoprotein E study include Allele and Oncology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sex-Specific Association of Apolipoprotein E With Cerebrospinal Fluid Levels of Tau. (96 citations)
  • Whole exome sequencing study identifies novel rare and common Alzheimer's-Associated variants involved in immune response and transcriptional regulation (93 citations)
  • Immune-related genetic enrichment in frontotemporal dementia: An analysis of genome-wide association studies (88 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Mutation

His primary scientific interests are in Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Apolipoprotein E, Gene and Genetic association. His studies deal with areas such as Progressive supranuclear palsy, Temporal cortex, Frontotemporal dementia, Epistasis and Expression quantitative trait loci as well as Genome-wide association study. His Genetics study frequently links to other fields, such as Alzheimer's disease.

His Apolipoprotein E research integrates issues from Allele and Oncology. His study looks at the relationship between Gene and fields such as Dementia, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Genetic association study combines topics in areas such as Chromosome 17, Linkage disequilibrium, Locus and Chromosome 7.
