Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Schizophrenia

His primary scientific interests are in Psychosis, Internal medicine, Psychiatry, Schizophrenia and Dopamine receptor. His Psychosis research integrates issues from Psychosocial, Cerebro, Course of illness, Neuroscience and Craniofacial. In his study, Agonist and Denervation supersensitivity is strongly linked to Endocrinology, which falls under the umbrella field of Internal medicine.

John L. Waddington interconnects Disease, Cohort study and Clinical psychology in the investigation of issues within Psychiatry. His Schizophrenia study combines topics in areas such as Genetics, Dyskinesia, Family history and Genome-wide association study. His Dopamine receptor research incorporates themes from Dopaminergic, Pharmacology and D-1.

His most cited work include:

  • Biological insights from 108 schizophrenia-associated genetic loci (4834 citations)
  • Rare chromosomal deletions and duplications increase risk of schizophrenia (1276 citations)
  • Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain (726 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Schizophrenia, Psychosis, Psychiatry, Neuroscience and Internal medicine. His studies deal with areas such as Bipolar disorder, Dyskinesia, Cognition and Clinical psychology as well as Schizophrenia. His research integrates issues of Antipsychotic, Disease, Etiology and Cognitive disorder in his study of Psychosis.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Phenotype, Neuregulin 1 and Schizophrenia in addition to Neuroscience. Phenotype is a subfield of Genetics that he explores. His research in Internal medicine tackles topics such as Endocrinology which are related to areas like Agonist.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Schizophrenia (35.32%)
  • Psychosis (36.31%)
  • Psychiatry (33.13%)

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

  • Schizophrenia (35.32%)
  • Psychosis (36.31%)
  • Neuroscience (28.77%)

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

His main research concerns Schizophrenia, Psychosis, Neuroscience, Psychiatry and Internal medicine. His Schizophrenia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Phenotype, Bipolar disorder, Cognition, Disease and Clinical psychology. His Psychosis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Movement disorders and DNA methylation.

His study in the field of Working memory, Habituation and Basal ganglia is also linked to topics like Context. His research investigates the connection between Internal medicine and topics such as Endocrinology that intersect with issues in Agonist, DISC1 and Neuregulin 1. The subject of his Genome-wide association study research is within the realm of Genetics.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain (726 citations)
  • Contribution of copy number variants to schizophrenia from a genome-wide study of 41,321 subjects (475 citations)
  • Genomic Dissection of Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia, Including 28 Subphenotypes (328 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Schizophrenia

His primary areas of investigation include Schizophrenia, Psychosis, Neuroscience, Internal medicine and Bipolar disorder. His research in Schizophrenia intersects with topics in Dentate gyrus, Phenotype, Habituation, Dysbindin and Clinical psychology. His Psychosis study which covers Disease that intersects with Neurodevelopmental disorder.

His Neuroscience study incorporates themes from Developmental psychology and Genetic model. His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Endocrinology, Gene expression and DISC1. His work carried out in the field of Bipolar disorder brings together such families of science as Major depressive disorder, Genetic heterogeneity, Genome-wide association study and Genetic association.
