Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

His scientific interests lie mostly in Environmental health, Cancer, Lung cancer, Odds ratio and Prospective cohort study. His Environmental health study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cross-sectional study, Pesticide, Global health, Public health and Risk factor. His Pesticide research includes elements of Toxicology, Environmental exposure and Environmental protection.

His work carried out in the field of Cancer brings together such families of science as Surgery, Epidemiology and Toxaphene. His Lung cancer study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Respiratory disease, Case-control study and Passive smoking. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Occupational medicine, Incidence, Cohort study and Cohort.

His most cited work include:

  • Tobacco smoke and involuntary smoking (1323 citations)
  • Tobacco and cancer: recent epidemiological evidence. (549 citations)
  • Health effects of chronic pesticide exposure: cancer and neurotoxicity. (508 citations)

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

Michael C. R. Alavanja mostly deals with Environmental health, Pesticide, Prospective cohort study, Odds ratio and Internal medicine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Occupational safety and health, Epidemiology, Occupational medicine, Public health and Cohort in addition to Environmental health. His Pesticide research incorporates elements of Toxicology, Cancer incidence and Environmental protection.

His Prospective cohort study research integrates issues from Body mass index, Cancer, Poisson regression, Incidence and Cohort study. His Odds ratio research focuses on Risk factor and how it connects with Absolute risk reduction. Michael C. R. Alavanja has included themes like Endocrinology and Oncology in his Internal medicine study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental health (48.21%)
  • Pesticide (36.07%)
  • Prospective cohort study (26.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Pesticide (36.07%)
  • Prospective cohort study (26.79%)
  • Internal medicine (23.21%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Pesticide, Prospective cohort study, Internal medicine, Environmental health and Toxicology. His studies in Pesticide integrate themes in fields like White blood cell, Non occupational and OLFACTORY IMPAIRMENT. His Prospective cohort study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Body mass index, Cohort study, Liver cancer, Proportional hazards model and Multiple myeloma.

Many of his research projects under Environmental health are closely connected to MEDLINE with MEDLINE, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Toxicology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Absolute risk reduction, Diazinon, Linear regression, Poisson regression and Relative risk. His Cancer study incorporates themes from Epidemiology and Incidence.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Organophosphate insecticide use and cancer incidence among spouses of pesticide applicators in the Agricultural Health Study (98 citations)
  • Non-hodgkin lymphoma risk and insecticide, fungicide and fumigant use in the agricultural health study. (78 citations)
  • Glyphosate Use and Cancer Incidence in the Agricultural Health Study. (71 citations)

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

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

His main research concerns Environmental health, Pesticide, Internal medicine, Toxicology and Prospective cohort study. Michael C. R. Alavanja undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Environmental health and Human health in his work. His work in Internal medicine addresses subjects such as Oncology, which are connected to disciplines such as Bioinformatics, Case-control study and Disease.

His study in Toxicology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Absolute risk reduction, Diazinon, Epidemiology, Poisson regression and Confounding. Michael C. R. Alavanja interconnects Body mass index, Waist, Confidence interval, Liver cancer and Proportional hazards model in the investigation of issues within Prospective cohort study. Michael C. R. Alavanja works mostly in the field of Cancer, limiting it down to concerns involving Incidence and, occasionally, Agronomy.
