Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

Her primary scientific interests are in Cancer, Genetics, Internal medicine, Melanoma and Oncology. Her Cancer research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Odds ratio, Pathology, Genetic linkage and Genetic testing. Internal medicine is frequently linked to Surgery in her study.

Her work carried out in the field of Melanoma brings together such families of science as Dermatology, Hereditary Melanoma and Incidence. Margaret A. Tucker has researched Oncology in several fields, including Case-control study, Allele and Risk factor. Her Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Linkage disequilibrium and Prostate cancer.

Her most cited work include:

  • The Risk of Cancer Associated with Specific Mutations of BRCA1 and BRCA2 among Ashkenazi Jews (2006 citations)
  • A genome-wide association study identifies alleles in FGFR2 associated with risk of sporadic postmenopausal breast cancer (1380 citations)
  • Replicating genotype–phenotype associations (1235 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Internal medicine, Oncology, Genetics, Cancer and Melanoma. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Oncology, Odds ratio are connected with Confidence interval and other disciplines. Her Cancer study incorporates themes from Disease, Pathology and Family history.

Margaret A. Tucker interconnects Dermatology and CDKN2A in the investigation of issues within Melanoma. Her CDKN2A research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mutation and Germline mutation. Her work deals with themes such as Surgery and Incidence, which intersect with Epidemiology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (37.17%)
  • Oncology (32.35%)
  • Genetics (31.28%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (37.17%)
  • Oncology (32.35%)
  • Melanoma (26.74%)

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

Internal medicine, Oncology, Melanoma, Genetics and Genome-wide association study are her primary areas of study. Her Internal medicine study deals with Hereditary Retinoblastoma intersecting with Cumulative incidence and Sarcoma. The various areas that she examines in her Oncology study include Odds ratio, Epidemiology, Young adult, Leukemia and Radiation therapy.

Her Melanoma study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Generalized estimating equation, Germline, Medical genetics, Familial Melanoma and Genotype. Her study on Genetics is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Mosaic. Margaret A. Tucker combines subjects such as Minor allele frequency and Locus with her study of Genome-wide association study.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Thyroid Cancer Following Childhood Low-Dose Radiation Exposure: A Pooled Analysis of Nine Cohorts. (75 citations)
  • Genome-Wide Association Study to Identify Susceptibility Loci That Modify Radiation-Related Risk for Breast Cancer After Childhood Cancer (47 citations)
  • Association of Chemotherapy for Solid Tumors With Development of Therapy-Related Myelodysplastic Syndrome or Acute Myeloid Leukemia in the Modern Era. (44 citations)

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

  • Cancer
  • Gene
  • Mutation

Her primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Oncology and Cancer. Her study in Relative risk and Survival rate are all subfields of Internal medicine. Her study in Single-nucleotide polymorphism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both DNA microarray, Genotyping and Computational biology.

Her research investigates the link between Oncology and topics such as Proportional hazards model that cross with problems in Radiation therapy, Breast cancer, Epidemiology of cancer, Population study and Childhood Cancer Survivor Study. Her research brings together the fields of Epidemiology and Cancer. Her work in Epidemiology tackles topics such as Incidence which are related to areas like Pediatrics.
