Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Cancer
  • DNA

Kornelia Polyak spends much of her time researching Cancer research, Cancer, Cell biology, Genetics and Breast cancer. Her Cancer research research includes themes of Cell, DNA methylation, Immunology, Colorectal cancer and Myoepithelial cell. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cancer cell, Stem cell and Cell type.

The concepts of her Cancer study are interwoven with issues in Phenotype and Epigenesis. Her Cell biology research focuses on Cyclin-dependent kinase and how it relates to Cyclin. In her work, Cell adhesion is strongly intertwined with Carcinoma, which is a subfield of Breast cancer.

Her most cited work include:

  • The Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition Generates Cells with Properties of Stem Cells (6731 citations)
  • Transitions between epithelial and mesenchymal states: acquisition of malignant and stem cell traits (2605 citations)
  • Mesenchymal stem cells within tumour stroma promote breast cancer metastasis (2545 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Cancer research, Breast cancer, Cancer, Internal medicine and Oncology. Her Cancer research research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Carcinogenesis, Cell, Epigenetics and Immunology. Her research in Carcinogenesis focuses on subjects like Cell biology, which are connected to Cyclin-dependent kinase complex, Apoptosis and Cell cycle.

Kornelia Polyak has researched Breast cancer in several fields, including Genetic heterogeneity and Disease, Pathology. Cancer is a subfield of Genetics that Kornelia Polyak studies. Her Cancer cell research includes themes of Cancer stem cell and CD44.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cancer research (48.67%)
  • Breast cancer (46.61%)
  • Cancer (41.00%)

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

  • Breast cancer (46.61%)
  • Cancer research (48.67%)
  • Cancer (41.00%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Breast cancer, Cancer research, Cancer, Internal medicine and Oncology. Her study looks at the intersection of Breast cancer and topics like Pathology with Carcinogenesis. Her research in Cancer research intersects with topics in Cancer cell, Triple-negative breast cancer, Bromodomain and Immune system.

Kornelia Polyak has included themes like Stromal cell and Personalized medicine in her Cancer study. Her study in the field of Estrogen receptor also crosses realms of Ruxolitinib. Her study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cyclin-dependent kinase and Cellular differentiation.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Response and resistance to BET bromodomain inhibitors in triple-negative breast cancer (327 citations)
  • Response and resistance to BET bromodomain inhibitors in triple-negative breast cancer (327 citations)
  • Insights into Molecular Classifications of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: Improving Patient Selection for Treatment. (262 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Cancer
  • DNA

Kornelia Polyak mainly focuses on Cancer, Breast cancer, Internal medicine, Oncology and Cancer research. Kornelia Polyak combines subjects such as Evolvability, Personalized medicine and Molecular evolution with her study of Cancer. Her Breast cancer study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Cancer cell.

Kornelia Polyak has researched Cancer research in several fields, including Epigenetics, Bromodomain, BRD4, Transcription factor and Immunology. Her Immunology study incorporates themes from Ductal carcinoma and Tumor progression. Kornelia Polyak works on Cell biology which deals in particular with Cancer stem cell.
