Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

Her primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Body mass index and Internal medicine. Her research links Cholesterol with Genetics. Her Genome-wide association study study combines topics in areas such as Quantitative trait locus, Genetic architecture, Genomics and Genetic association.

Her studies deal with areas such as FTO gene, Obesity, SH2B1 and Glucose homeostasis as well as Body mass index. Iris M. Heid has researched SH2B1 in several fields, including Neuronal growth regulator 1 and Genetics of obesity. Her Internal medicine study often links to related topics such as Endocrinology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids (2804 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)
  • Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height (1614 citations)

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

Iris M. Heid focuses on Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Endocrinology. The various areas that Iris M. Heid examines in her Genetics study include Body mass index and Waist–hip ratio. Her work deals with themes such as Macular degeneration, Bioinformatics, Quantitative trait locus, Genetic association and Locus, which intersect with Genome-wide association study.

The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Diabetes mellitus, Type 2 diabetes and Cardiology. Her Single-nucleotide polymorphism research integrates issues from Genotyping and Allele. Her research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Cohort and Genotype in her study of Endocrinology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (39.63%)
  • Genome-wide association study (34.56%)
  • Internal medicine (32.72%)

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

  • Genome-wide association study (34.56%)
  • Genetics (39.63%)
  • Internal medicine (32.72%)

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

Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Macular degeneration and Body mass index are her primary areas of study. Genome-wide association study is a subfield of Gene that Iris M. Heid tackles. Locus, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, 1000 Genomes Project, Allele and Minor allele frequency are the subjects of her Genetics studies.

In her study, Nephrology is inextricably linked to Nonsynonymous substitution, which falls within the broad field of Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Her studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes and Cardiology. Her study in Body mass index is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Quantitative trait locus, Anthropometry, Obesity and Bioinformatics.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide physical activity interactions in adiposity. A meta-analysis of 200,452 adults (211 citations)
  • A Deep Learning Algorithm for Prediction of Age-Related Eye Disease Study Severity Scale for Age-Related Macular Degeneration from Color Fundus Photography (147 citations)
  • Protein-altering variants associated with body mass index implicate pathways that control energy intake and expenditure in obesity (145 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Iris M. Heid spends much of her time researching Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Macular degeneration, Genetic association and Body mass index. Her study looks at the relationship between Genetics and fields such as Renal function, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. Her Genome-wide association study research includes themes of Bioinformatics, Locus and 1000 Genomes Project.

Her Genetic association research incorporates elements of Imputation, Minor allele frequency, Allele frequency and Medical genetics. Her Body mass index study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Quantitative trait locus and Anthropometry. Her Single-nucleotide polymorphism research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Waist, Waist–hip ratio and Meta-analysis, Internal medicine.
