Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

Joseph D. Terwilliger spends much of his time researching Genetics, Gene mapping, Linkage disequilibrium, Locus and Genetic linkage. His research in the fields of Linkage, Haplotype and Allele frequency overlaps with other disciplines such as Transmissible mink encephalopathy. The various areas that Joseph D. Terwilliger examines in his Gene mapping study include Genetic marker, Genome and Disease, Genetic predisposition.

His Linkage disequilibrium research includes elements of Evolutionary biology and Association mapping. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sample size determination, Statistical significance and Candidate gene. The study incorporates disciplines such as Major depressive disorder and Chromosomal region in addition to Genetic linkage.

His most cited work include:

  • Handbook of Human Genetic Linkage (840 citations)
  • Identification of a DNA variant associated with adult type hypolactasia (829 citations)
  • Linkage of a prion protein missense variant to Gerstmann–Sträussler syndrome (721 citations)

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

Genetics, Locus, Genetic linkage, Linkage disequilibrium and Gene mapping are his primary areas of study. Allele, Genetic marker, Gene, Linkage and Haplotype are among the areas of Genetics where Joseph D. Terwilliger concentrates his study. His Locus research incorporates themes from Genetic heterogeneity, Microsatellite, Allele frequency and Statistical hypothesis testing.

His work carried out in the field of Genetic linkage brings together such families of science as Pedigree chart, Statistics, Lod score, Genetic determinism and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His Linkage disequilibrium study also includes

  • Genetic association, which have a strong connection to Endocrinology and Internal medicine,
  • Computational biology and related Text mining. His work investigates the relationship between Gene mapping and topics such as Genome that intersect with problems in Evolutionary biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (80.24%)
  • Locus (42.51%)
  • Genetic linkage (36.53%)

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

  • Internal medicine (18.56%)
  • Blood pressure (11.98%)
  • Cardiology (6.59%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Blood pressure, Cardiology, Physiology and Body mass index. Particularly relevant to Dementia is his body of work in Internal medicine. His Blood pressure research also works with subjects such as

  • Cohort, Apolipoprotein E, Genotype, Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases and Neuropathology most often made with reference to Ambulatory,
  • Ophthalmology which is related to area like Nocturnal.

Joseph D. Terwilliger combines subjects such as Longitudinal study and Diastole with his study of Cardiology. His Physiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Inflammation and Weight loss. His Incidence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Epidemiology and Disease.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Glaucomatous Optic Neuropathy Associated with Nocturnal Dip in Blood Pressure: Findings from the Maracaibo Aging Study (21 citations)
  • Glaucomatous Optic Neuropathy Associated with Nocturnal Dip in Blood Pressure: Findings from the Maracaibo Aging Study (21 citations)
  • Incidence of dementia in elderly Latin Americans: Results of the Maracaibo Aging Study (14 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

His primary scientific interests are in Physiology, Inflammation, Weight loss, Body mass index and Diastole. Joseph D. Terwilliger has included themes like White blood cell, Obesity, Homeostasis and Lipid metabolism in his Physiology study. When carried out as part of a general Inflammation research project, his work on Systemic inflammation is frequently linked to work in Chemokine secretion, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His work deals with themes such as Pulse pressure, Sex characteristics, Cross-sectional study, Diabetes mellitus and Orthostatic vital signs, which intersect with Body mass index. The study of Internal medicine and Blood pressure are components of his Diastole research. Internal medicine and Intraocular pressure are frequently intertwined in his study.
