Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

Her primary areas of study are Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association and Internal medicine. Her Genome-wide association study research integrates issues from Polymorphism, DNA methylation, Bioinformatics, Medical genetics and Epigenetics. The various areas that Myriam Fornage examines in her Single-nucleotide polymorphism study include Hyperintensity, Immunology and Allelic heterogeneity.

The Genetic association study combines topics in areas such as Blood pressure, Genotyping, Glucose homeostasis, Human genetics and Genetic architecture. Her study looks at the relationship between Internal medicine and topics such as Endocrinology, which overlap with Case-control study and Mendelian Randomization Analysis. Her Stroke research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cohort and MEDLINE.

Her most cited work include:

  • Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2017 Update: A Report From the American Heart Association (5200 citations)
  • Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics-2018 Update: A Report From the American Heart Association. (3460 citations)
  • Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2019 Update: A Report From the American Heart Association (3359 citations)

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

Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Genetic association and Single-nucleotide polymorphism are her primary areas of study. Her Genetics study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Blood pressure. Her study looks at the relationship between Genome-wide association study and fields such as Bioinformatics, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Particularly relevant to Stroke is her body of work in Internal medicine. Her Stroke course of study focuses on Epidemiology and Dementia. Her Genetic association research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Apolipoprotein E, Disease and Genetic architecture.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (44.28%)
  • Genome-wide association study (43.71%)
  • Internal medicine (26.45%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Genetics (44.28%)
  • Genome-wide association study (43.71%)
  • Internal medicine (26.45%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Genetic association and Gene. The study of Genetics is intertwined with the study of Blood pressure in a number of ways. Her Genome-wide association study study improves the overall literature in Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

Her Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Endocrinology, Oncology and Cardiology. Her Genetic association study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cognition, Genomics, Imputation, Apolipoprotein E and Epigenome. Her research in Disease focuses on subjects like Bioinformatics, which are connected to Mendelian randomization.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2020 Update: A Report From the American Heart Association (2052 citations)
  • Sequencing of 53,831 diverse genomes from the NHLBI TOPMed Program. (189 citations)
  • The genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex (163 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Genetic variation, Genetic architecture and Genetic association. Her Genome-wide association study research is included under the broader classification of Single-nucleotide polymorphism. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Genetic variation, Feces, Host and Genotype is strongly linked to Microbiome.

Her research investigates the connection with Genetic architecture and areas like Genome which intersect with concerns in Epigenetics, Ageing, dNaM and Parental longevity. Myriam Fornage has included themes like Apolipoprotein E, Case-control study, Oncology and Age of onset in her Genetic association study. Her research on Mendelian randomization also deals with topics like

  • Mendelian Randomization Analysis which connect with Stroke,
  • Bioinformatics, which have a strong connection to Meta-analysis.
