Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

James G. Wilson mainly focuses on Genetics, Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Allele. His study in Genetic association, Exome, Genotype, Locus and Allele frequency is done as part of Genetics. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Immunology and Type 2 diabetes.

His research investigates the connection between Single-nucleotide polymorphism and topics such as Candidate gene that intersect with problems in SNP genotyping. His studies in Allele integrate themes in fields like Genetic variation, Disease and Genetic admixture. His study looks at the relationship between Genetic variation and topics such as Genomics, which overlap with DNA Mutational Analysis and Mutation.

His most cited work include:

  • Analysis of protein-coding genetic variation in 60,706 humans (6694 citations)
  • Age-Related Clonal Hematopoiesis Associated with Adverse Outcomes (1896 citations)
  • The genetic architecture of type 2 diabetes (674 citations)

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

James G. Wilson mostly deals with Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Genetic association. His work in Allele, Locus, Exome, Gene and Allele frequency is related to Genetics. His Gene study focuses on Genetic variation in particular.

His study explores the link between Genome-wide association study and topics such as Imputation that cross with problems in Genome. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes and Cardiology. His studies deal with areas such as Meta-analysis and Polymorphism as well as Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (46.24%)
  • Genome-wide association study (34.97%)
  • Internal medicine (31.50%)

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

  • Internal medicine (31.50%)
  • Genome-wide association study (34.97%)
  • Genetics (46.24%)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Disease and Genetic association. The study incorporates disciplines such as Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes and Cardiology in addition to Internal medicine. His Genome-wide association study research incorporates themes from Minor allele frequency, Locus, Allele and Bioinformatics.

His Locus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Meta-analysis and Genetic variation. His studies in Gene, Gene expression, Whole genome sequencing, Exome and Genome are all subfields of Genetics research. His research integrates issues of Penetrance, Blood lipids and Kidney disease in his study of Disease.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • DNA methylation GrimAge strongly predicts lifespan and healthspan (231 citations)
  • Sequencing of 53,831 diverse genomes from the NHLBI TOPMed Program (143 citations)
  • Assembly of a pan-genome from deep sequencing of 910 humans of African descent (141 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Genetic association and Genetic variation. His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Endocrinology and Cardiology. His work on Genetics is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Gout.

To a larger extent, James G. Wilson studies Single-nucleotide polymorphism with the aim of understanding Genome-wide association study. The various areas that James G. Wilson examines in his Genetic association study include Regulation of gene expression, Albuminuria, QRS complex and Medical genetics. His study looks at the relationship between Genetic variation and fields such as Locus, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
