Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Locus, Gene, Quantitative trait locus and Genetic marker. Genetics is represented through his Genome-wide association study, Gene mapping, Linkage disequilibrium, Microsatellite and Haplotype research. His study in Genome-wide association study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Disease, Inflammatory bowel disease, Allele and Genetic association.

His work carried out in the field of Locus brings together such families of science as Phenotype, Genetic linkage, CpG site and Polar overdominance. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Dairy cattle, Association mapping, Internal medicine and Transmembrane domain. His Genetic marker study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Positional cloning, Hypervariable region and Minisatellite.

His most cited work include:

  • Host-microbe interactions have shaped the genetic architecture of inflammatory bowel disease (3117 citations)
  • Resistance to HIV-1 infection in caucasian individuals bearing mutant alleles of the CCR-5 chemokine receptor gene. (2552 citations)
  • Genome-wide association defines more than 30 distinct susceptibility loci for Crohn's disease (2233 citations)

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

Michel Georges mainly investigates Genetics, Gene, Quantitative trait locus, Locus and Allele. Michel Georges regularly ties together related areas like Molecular biology in his Genetics studies. His Quantitative trait locus research integrates issues from Linkage disequilibrium, Haplotype and Family-based QTL mapping.

His Locus research focuses on Polar overdominance and how it relates to Genomic imprinting. His research on Allele frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Genotype. He has included themes like Immunology, Disease, Inflammatory bowel disease and Genetic association in his Genome-wide association study study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (62.50%)
  • Gene (21.54%)
  • Quantitative trait locus (19.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Genetics (62.50%)
  • Genome-wide association study (10.64%)
  • Computational biology (10.11%)

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

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Computational biology, Gene and Genome. His study in Quantitative trait locus, Allele, Locus, Genetic association and Genotyping is done as part of Genetics. Michel Georges combines subjects such as Frameshift mutation, Exon and Cohort with his study of Locus.

His Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Candidate gene, Blood cell and Genetic architecture. He works mostly in the field of Gene, limiting it down to topics relating to Glycosylation and, in certain cases, Immunoglobulin G, Fucosyltransferase and Gene knockdown. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cell, Mutation rate and Mutation.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Unraveling the polygenic architecture of complex traits using blood eQTL metaanalysis (293 citations)
  • Fine-mapping inflammatory bowel disease loci to single-variant resolution (263 citations)
  • Codon-specific translation reprogramming promotes resistance to targeted therapy (96 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Michel Georges spends much of his time researching Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Genome, Gene and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His study in Genetics focuses on Allele, Genotyping, Genetic variation, Genotype and Missense mutation. The various areas that he examines in his Genome-wide association study study include Quantitative trait locus, Genetic architecture, Genetic association, Locus and Candidate gene.

His studies deal with areas such as Inflammatory bowel disease, Linkage disequilibrium, Ulcerative colitis, Medical genetics and Epigenetics as well as Genetic association. Michel Georges interconnects DNA sequencing and Exon in the investigation of issues within Locus. His biological study deals with issues like Immunology, which deal with fields such as Crohn's disease.
