Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Mutation

Karl W. Broman mainly focuses on Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Genetic marker, Genetic linkage and Genome. His study in Genetics concentrates on Chromosome, Gene mapping, Allele, Locus and Linkage disequilibrium. His study in Quantitative trait locus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Evolutionary biology, Computational biology, Inclusive composite interval mapping, Family-based QTL mapping and Candidate gene.

His Genetic marker study combines topics in areas such as Autosome, Confidence distribution, Genotyping, Bayes' theorem and Linkage. His studies in Genetic linkage integrate themes in fields like Genotype and Age of onset. His research in Genome focuses on subjects like Inbred strain, which are connected to Chromosome breakage.

His most cited work include:

  • R/qtl: QTL mapping in experimental crosses (2378 citations)
  • Comprehensive Human Genetic Maps: Individual and Sex-Specific Variation in Recombination (993 citations)
  • The Collaborative Cross, a community resource for the genetic analysis of complex traits (852 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Locus, Genetic linkage and Genome. Genetics is represented through his Gene, Gene mapping, Allele, Genotype and Meiosis research. His Gene mapping study incorporates themes from Genetic marker and X chromosome.

His Quantitative trait locus research also works with subjects such as

  • Family-based QTL mapping that connect with fields like Inclusive composite interval mapping,
  • Expression quantitative trait loci that connect with fields like Gene expression. His work deals with themes such as Molecular biology, Trait, Genetic variation and Candidate gene, which intersect with Locus. As a member of one scientific family, Karl W. Broman mostly works in the field of Genome, focusing on Inbred strain and, on occasion, Recombinant DNA.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (61.43%)
  • Quantitative trait locus (41.26%)
  • Locus (17.04%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Quantitative trait locus (41.26%)
  • Genetics (61.43%)
  • Computational biology (11.66%)

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

Quantitative trait locus, Genetics, Computational biology, Locus and Genotype are his primary areas of study. His Quantitative trait locus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pleiotropy, Genome, Model selection and Expression quantitative trait loci, Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His study in Gene, Phenotype, Recombination, Homologous recombination and Meiosis falls within the category of Genetics.

His Computational biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Microbiome and Shotgun sequencing. Karl W. Broman combines subjects such as Gut flora, Genetic variation, Bile acid and Candidate gene with his study of Locus. His research in the fields of SNP overlaps with other disciplines such as R package, Context and Sample.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • R/qtl2: Software for Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci with High-Dimensional Data and Multiparent Populations (114 citations)
  • Data organization in spreadsheets (38 citations)
  • Genetic Fine-Mapping and Identification of Candidate Genes and Variants for Adiposity Traits in Outbred Rats. (33 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Mutation

Karl W. Broman mostly deals with Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Locus, Expression quantitative trait loci and Phenotype. Association mapping, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Homologous recombination, Recombination and Meiosis are the subjects of his Genetics studies. The study incorporates disciplines such as Genome, Strain, Genotyping, Software and Computational biology in addition to Association mapping.

His work carried out in the field of Quantitative trait locus brings together such families of science as Expression data, Upload, DNA microarray, Open source and Web application. His Locus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Microbial genetics, Gut flora, Genetic variation and Bile acid. Karl W. Broman interconnects Trait and Dominance in the investigation of issues within Phenotype.
