Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetics, Genotype and Odds ratio. His research integrates issues of Cancer, Breast cancer, Prostate cancer, Case-control study and Genetic association in his study of Genome-wide association study. His Case-control study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Oncology and Bioinformatics.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genotyping and Allele. His study explores the link between Genetics and topics such as Cancer research that cross with problems in Wnt signaling pathway and Pleiotropism. His Odds ratio research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Osteoarthritis, Physical therapy and Confidence interval.

His most cited work include:

  • Large-scale genotyping identifies 41 new loci associated with breast cancer risk (834 citations)
  • Multiple newly identified loci associated with prostate cancer susceptibility. (754 citations)
  • A genome-wide association scan of tag SNPs identifies a susceptibility variant for colorectal cancer at 8q24.21. (743 citations)

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

Kenneth Muir mostly deals with Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Prostate cancer, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Oncology. Kenneth Muir interconnects Breast cancer, Allele, Genetic association and Locus in the investigation of issues within Genome-wide association study. His Breast cancer study combines topics in areas such as Cancer research, Ovarian cancer and Genetic predisposition.

His Prostate cancer research includes elements of Prostate, Disease and Hazard ratio. The study incorporates disciplines such as Genotyping and Bioinformatics in addition to Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Kenneth Muir works mostly in the field of Oncology, limiting it down to topics relating to Mendelian randomization and, in certain cases, Mendelian Randomization Analysis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (57.35%)
  • Genome-wide association study (54.27%)
  • Prostate cancer (48.82%)

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

  • Internal medicine (57.35%)
  • Oncology (43.84%)
  • Prostate cancer (48.82%)

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

Kenneth Muir mainly investigates Internal medicine, Oncology, Prostate cancer, Genome-wide association study and Breast cancer. The Oncology study combines topics in areas such as Mendelian randomization, Germline, Confidence interval, Ovarian cancer and Colorectal cancer. His study in Prostate cancer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biopsy, Proportional hazards model, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genotype and Hazard ratio.

His Genome-wide association study study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Genetics. His research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Epidemiology, Disease and Gene in his study of Breast cancer. His Genetic association study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genetic variants and Genetic predisposition.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Association analyses of more than 140,000 men identify 63 new prostate cancer susceptibility loci (268 citations)
  • Association analyses of more than 140,000 men identify 63 new prostate cancer susceptibility loci (268 citations)
  • Polygenic hazard score to guide screening for aggressive prostate cancer: development and validation in large scale cohorts (80 citations)

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

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Prostate cancer, Oncology and Genetic association. His work on Tumour stage, Repeat biopsy, Biopsy and Patient summary as part of his general Internal medicine study is frequently connected to Action plan, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His research in Genome-wide association study intersects with topics in Case-control study and Medical genetics.

His Prostate cancer research is classified as research in Cancer. His Oncology study incorporates themes from Mendelian randomization, Ovarian cancer, Gene, Candidate gene and Breast cancer. His research investigates the link between Breast cancer and topics such as Odds ratio that cross with problems in Disease, Genetic predisposition and Estrogen receptor.
