Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Major depressive disorder

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Psychiatry, Clinical psychology, Anxiety disorder, Depression and Injury prevention. In most of her Psychiatry studies, her work intersects topics such as Risk factor. Her Clinical psychology research incorporates elements of Intervention, Bipolar disorder, National Comorbidity Survey and Heritability.

Her studies deal with areas such as Twin study, Panic disorder, Public health and Psychopathology as well as Anxiety disorder. As a member of one scientific family, Karestan C. Koenen mostly works in the field of Depression, focusing on Prospective cohort study and, on occasion, Cohort study, Body mass index and Longitudinal study. The concepts of her Injury prevention study are interwoven with issues in Occupational safety and health, Suicide prevention and Human factors and ergonomics.

Her most cited work include:

  • Biological studies of post-traumatic stress disorder (875 citations)
  • Skills training in affective and interpersonal regulation followed by exposure: a phase-based treatment for PTSD related to childhood abuse. (740 citations)
  • Risk of COVID-19 among front-line health-care workers and the general community: a prospective cohort study. (725 citations)

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

Karestan C. Koenen mainly investigates Psychiatry, Clinical psychology, Depression, Mental health and Injury prevention. Karestan C. Koenen works mostly in the field of Psychiatry, limiting it down to topics relating to Epidemiology and, in certain cases, Public health. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genome-wide association study, Genetic association and Child abuse.

Her research integrates issues of SNP, Candidate gene, Cohort and Heritability in her study of Genome-wide association study. Her Depression study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Prospective cohort study. Her Injury prevention study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Occupational safety and health, Suicide prevention and Human factors and ergonomics.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Psychiatry (44.83%)
  • Clinical psychology (38.40%)
  • Depression (18.50%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Clinical psychology (38.40%)
  • Depression (18.50%)
  • Mental health (14.58%)

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

Karestan C. Koenen focuses on Clinical psychology, Depression, Mental health, Genome-wide association study and Psychiatry. Her study on Clinical psychology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Psychological resilience that connect with fields like Stressor,
  • Cognition which is related to area like Comorbidity. Her Depression research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Prospective cohort study, Cohort study, Genetic predisposition and Anxiety.

Her work deals with themes such as Generalized anxiety disorder, Epidemiology, Loneliness and Public health, which intersect with Mental health. Her Genome-wide association study study also includes fields such as

  • Genetic association which is related to area like Genetic correlation, Traumatic stress and Linkage disequilibrium,
  • Cohort, which have a strong connection to Oncology. Her Vulnerability and Psychological intervention study are her primary interests in Psychiatry.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Risk of COVID-19 among front-line health-care workers and the general community: a prospective cohort study. (725 citations)
  • A neurobiological mechanism linking transportation noise to cardiovascular disease in humans (34 citations)
  • The AURORA Study: a longitudinal, multimodal library of brain biology and function after traumatic stress exposure. (31 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Major depressive disorder
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Clinical psychology, Genome-wide association study, Depression, Genetic association and Cohort. She interconnects Arousal, Injury prevention, Occupational safety and health and Risk factor in the investigation of issues within Clinical psychology. Karestan C. Koenen focuses mostly in the field of Genome-wide association study, narrowing it down to topics relating to Computational biology and, in certain cases, Replicate, Regression analysis and Genotyping.

Depression is a subfield of Psychiatry that Karestan C. Koenen studies. The study incorporates disciplines such as Suicide attempt, Cause of death, Locus, Socioeconomic status and Genetic architecture in addition to Psychiatry. As a part of the same scientific study, she usually deals with the Genetic association, concentrating on Linkage disequilibrium and frequently concerns with Gene-environment correlation, Child abuse, Genetic correlation and SNP.
