What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
Genetics, DNA mismatch repair, Germline mutation, MLH1 and Colorectal cancer are her primary areas of study.
Päivi Peltomäki combines subjects such as Mutation, Gene mutation, Germline and Gene product with her study of DNA mismatch repair.
Her Germline mutation research includes themes of Endometrial cancer and Microsatellite instability.
Päivi Peltomäki has included themes like Phenotype and Cancer research in her Microsatellite instability study.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Tumor suppressor gene and MSH2.
Her research integrates issues of Family history and Pathology in her study of Colorectal cancer.
Her most cited work include:
- Clues to the pathogenesis of familial colorectal cancer (2375 citations)
- Revised Bethesda Guidelines for Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (Lynch Syndrome) and Microsatellite Instability (2320 citations)
- Mutations of a mutS homolog in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (2028 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Colorectal cancer, Cancer research, DNA mismatch repair and MLH1.
Many of her studies on Genetics apply to Molecular biology as well.
Her Colorectal cancer research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Oncology and Pathology.
She has researched Cancer research in several fields, including Germline mutation, Carcinogenesis, Microsatellite instability, Carcinoma and PTEN.
The Carcinogenesis study combines topics in areas such as DNA methylation and Loss of heterozygosity.
Her work in MLH1 addresses issues such as MSH2, which are connected to fields such as MSH6.
She most often published in these fields:
- Genetics (45.08%)
- Colorectal cancer (34.84%)
- Cancer research (36.07%)

- Cancer research (36.07%)
- Lynch syndrome (25.41%)
- Germline mutation (25.00%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Her primary areas of study are Cancer research, Lynch syndrome, Germline mutation, Epigenetics and Colorectal cancer.
Her Cancer research research incorporates themes from Carcinogenesis, Germline, Endometrial cancer and DNA methylation.
Her studies in Lynch syndrome integrate themes in fields like MLH1, MSH2 and Microsatellite instability.
Her Germline mutation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as CpG Island Methylator Phenotype and Gene mutation.
In her study, Ethnic origin and Cancer prevention is inextricably linked to Oncology, which falls within the broad field of Colorectal cancer.
Her DNA mismatch repair study is concerned with the larger field of Genetics.
Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:
