Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Blood pressure and Endocrinology. In his study, Pulse wave velocity and Stroke is strongly linked to Cardiology, which falls under the umbrella field of Internal medicine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Bioinformatics, Medical genetics, Disease, Allele and Genetic association in addition to Genome-wide association study.

His Blood pressure study incorporates themes from Anesthesia, Diuretic and Risk factor. In his research on the topic of Endocrinology, Hyperuricemia and Urate transport is strongly related with SLC2A9. His research integrates issues of Population stratification, Human genetics and CDKN2BAS in his study of Allele frequency.

His most cited work include:

  • Genome-wide association study of 14,000 cases of seven common diseases and 3,000 shared controls (7922 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)
  • Randomised controlled trial of vitamin E in patients with coronary disease: Cambridge Heart Antioxidant Study (CHAOS) (1940 citations)

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

Morris J. Brown focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Blood pressure, Genetics and Aldosterone. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Cardiology under Internal medicine, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Atenolol and Stroke. His work carried out in the field of Endocrinology brings together such families of science as Receptor and Antagonist.

His Blood pressure research incorporates elements of Hemodynamics, Surgery, Disease and Bioinformatics. His study in Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Locus, Gene and Candidate gene falls within the category of Genetics. His Genome-wide association study study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Allele and Genetic association.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (56.46%)
  • Endocrinology (44.42%)
  • Blood pressure (24.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (56.46%)
  • Blood pressure (24.95%)
  • Endocrinology (44.42%)

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

Morris J. Brown mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Blood pressure, Endocrinology, Aldosterone and Genetics. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Transcriptome and Cardiology. His Blood pressure research incorporates themes from Genetic analysis, Placebo, Disease and Genetic association.

His research in Endocrinology intersects with topics in Mutation, Microarray analysis techniques and Wnt signaling pathway. His study in Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic variation, Candidate gene and Gene is done as part of Genetics. Morris J. Brown combines subjects such as Bioinformatics, Medical genetics, Allele, Locus and Genetic architecture with his study of Genome-wide association study.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Defining the role of common variation in the genomic and biological architecture of adult human height (1407 citations)
  • Novel genetic associations for blood pressure identified via gene-alcohol interaction in up to 570K individuals across multiple ancestries (799 citations)
  • Spironolactone versus placebo, bisoprolol, and doxazosin to determine the optimal treatment for drug-resistant hypertension (PATHWAY-2): a randomised, double-blind, crossover trial (528 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genome-wide association study, Blood pressure, Internal medicine, Genetics and Endocrinology. His studies in Genome-wide association study integrate themes in fields like Bioinformatics, Medical genetics, Allele, Genetic association and Genetic architecture. His Blood pressure study combines topics in areas such as Spironolactone, Placebo, Randomized controlled trial and Disease.

As part of one scientific family, Morris J. Brown deals mainly with the area of Disease, narrowing it down to issues related to the Pulse pressure, and often Genetic testing, Biobank and Risk factor. His work on Aldosterone, Vascular resistance, Hemodynamics and Primary aldosteronism as part of general Internal medicine study is frequently connected to GNRHR, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His Endocrinology study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Somatic cell.
