Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Mutation

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Internal medicine, Gene, Mitochondrial DNA and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. His work in Mutation, Missense mutation, Genotype, Mitochondrial disease and Mitochondrion is related to Genetics. Giacomo P. Comi has included themes like Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Surgery and Cardiology in his Internal medicine study.

His research investigates the connection with Mitochondrial DNA and areas like Molecular biology which intersect with concerns in Protein subunit and Cytochrome c oxidase. His Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis study incorporates themes from C9orf72, Trinucleotide repeat expansion and Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His research investigates the link between Phenotype and topics such as Pathology that cross with problems in Neurogenesis and Stem cell.

His most cited work include:

  • Human mitochondrial DNA deletions associated with mutations in the gene encoding Twinkle, a phage T7 gene 4-like protein localized in mitochondria. (715 citations)
  • Role of Adenine Nucleotide Translocator 1 in mtDNA Maintenance (526 citations)
  • Randomized controlled trial of intravenous immunoglobulin versus oral prednisolone in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (493 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Pathology, Internal medicine, Gene and Disease. Genetics is often connected to Molecular biology in his work. Giacomo P. Comi frequently studies issues relating to Neurology and Pathology.

His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Oncology and Cardiology. In his research, Induced pluripotent stem cell is intimately related to Motor neuron, which falls under the overarching field of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Respiratory chain and Mitochondrion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (30.36%)
  • Pathology (22.05%)
  • Internal medicine (20.54%)

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

  • Internal medicine (20.54%)
  • Disease (10.27%)
  • Pathology (22.05%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Disease, Pathology, Spinal muscular atrophy and Genetics. His study focuses on the intersection of Internal medicine and fields such as Endocrinology with connections in the field of Ataxia. Within one scientific family, Giacomo P. Comi focuses on topics pertaining to Bioinformatics under Disease, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Genetic enhancement.

His work carried out in the field of Pathology brings together such families of science as Ptosis, Neurology and Haplotype. He works mostly in the field of Spinal muscular atrophy, limiting it down to topics relating to Motor neuron and, in certain cases, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Neurodegeneration, Neurofilament and Cell biology, as a part of the same area of interest. His study in Genetics focuses on Mutation, Myopathy, Phenotype, Genotype and Nuclear gene.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide Analyses Identify KIF5A as a Novel ALS Gene (215 citations)
  • Genome-Wide Analyses Identify KIF5A as a Novel ALS Gene (83 citations)
  • Genetic correlation between amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and schizophrenia (73 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Mutation

Giacomo P. Comi focuses on Spinal muscular atrophy, Neuroscience, Motor neuron, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Neurology. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pathogenesis, Neurodegeneration, Stem cell, Neural stem cell and Transplantation. His Motor neuron study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Axon, Cell biology and Gene.

His studies deal with areas such as microRNA and Genome-wide association study as well as Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism study improves the overall literature in Genetics. Myopathy is closely connected to Molecular biology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Genetics.
