Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

Her primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Allele, Gene, Allele frequency and Locus. Genetics is a component of her Genetic variation, Genotype, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Nucleotide diversity and Haplotype studies. Much of her study explores Genetic variation relationship to Evolutionary biology.

Her Genotype research incorporates elements of Compound heterozygosity and Population genetics. Michèle Ramsay has researched Allele in several fields, including Myotonia, Myotonic dystrophy and Genetic association. Her research integrates issues of OCA2, Nonsynonymous substitution, Melanocortin 1 receptor and Albinism, Oculocutaneous albinism in her study of Locus.

Her most cited work include:

  • The African Genome Variation Project shapes medical genetics in Africa (332 citations)
  • The African Genome Variation Project shapes medical genetics in Africa (332 citations)
  • High polymorphism at the human melanocortin 1 receptor locus. (241 citations)

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

Michèle Ramsay mainly investigates Genetics, Allele, Gene, Haplotype and Demography. Her research investigates the link between Genetics and topics such as Molecular biology that cross with problems in Cystic fibrosis. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mutation and Gene mutation.

Her Demography research incorporates themes from Body mass index, Diversity and Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association. As part of the same scientific family, Michèle Ramsay usually focuses on Locus, concentrating on Oculocutaneous albinism and intersecting with OCA2. Her 1000 Genomes Project research includes themes of Human genome and Genetic variation.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (56.15%)
  • Allele (18.94%)
  • Gene (17.28%)

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

  • Demography (15.95%)
  • Body mass index (8.64%)
  • Internal medicine (10.30%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Demography, Body mass index, Internal medicine, Cohort and Genetic association. Her research investigates the connection with Demography and areas like Demographic history which intersect with concerns in Evolutionary biology and Genome. Her Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gastroenterology and Endocrinology.

Her Cohort study incorporates themes from Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Disease, Cohort study and Genetic architecture. Genotype and Genetics are the areas that her Genetic association study falls under. Candidate gene and Mutation are the primary areas of interest in her Genetics study.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Runs of homozygosity: windows into population history and trait architecture. (163 citations)
  • H3Africa: current perspectives. (46 citations)
  • High-depth African genomes inform human migration and health (29 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Demography, Obesity, Body mass index, Evolutionary biology and Environmental health. Her Demography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Global health, Blood pressure and Underweight. Her study in Evolutionary biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Consanguinity, Genetic variation and Runs of Homozygosity.

Genetic variation is closely attributed to Genetic diversity in her work. Her biological study deals with issues like Whole genome sequencing, which deal with fields such as Genomics. Her Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Haplotype and Genetic architecture.
