Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Patrick M. Gaffney focuses on Immunology, Genetics, Lupus erythematosus, Haplotype and Autoimmune disease. His studies in Immunology integrate themes in fields like Genome-wide association study, Genetic association, Genotype, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Disease. His study in Human leukocyte antigen, Locus, Allele, Genetic linkage and Linkage disequilibrium are all subfields of Genetics.

Patrick M. Gaffney has included themes like Gene and FCGR2A in his Human leukocyte antigen study. Patrick M. Gaffney combines subjects such as Immune tolerance, B cell, Connective tissue disease, Protein kinase C and breakpoint cluster region with his study of Lupus erythematosus. The concepts of his Autoimmune disease study are interwoven with issues in IRF5, Pathogenesis, Gene expression profiling, Systemic disease and Anti-SSA/Ro autoantibodies.

His most cited work include:

  • Interferon-inducible gene expression signature in peripheral blood cells of patients with severe lupus (1752 citations)
  • The oyster genome reveals stress adaptation and complexity of shell formation (1370 citations)
  • Human polymorphism at microRNAs and microRNA target sites. (1284 citations)

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

Patrick M. Gaffney mainly investigates Immunology, Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Haplotype and Allele. His Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Genome-wide association study and Genetic association. In his work, Molecular biology is strongly intertwined with Systemic lupus erythematosus, which is a subfield of Genetics.

His study in Single-nucleotide polymorphism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Odds ratio, Case-control study, Allele frequency and Genetic variation. As part of his studies on Haplotype, Patrick M. Gaffney often connects relevant areas like IRF5. His work carried out in the field of Allele brings together such families of science as Major histocompatibility complex, Genotype and Candidate gene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (46.58%)
  • Genetics (41.78%)
  • Single-nucleotide polymorphism (20.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Immunology (46.58%)
  • Genetics (41.78%)
  • Gene (14.73%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Genetics, Gene, Genome-wide association study and Chromatin. Patrick M. Gaffney has included themes like Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Disease in his Immunology study. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research includes elements of Internal medicine and Allele, Haplotype.

His Genetics study frequently links to other fields, such as Evolutionary biology. His Gene study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Computational biology and Effector. His Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Expression quantitative trait loci, Human leukocyte antigen, Genetic association and Locus.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide association meta-analysis in Chinese and European individuals identifies ten new loci associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (169 citations)
  • Transancestral mapping and genetic load in systemic lupus erythematosus (143 citations)
  • Mutations in KEOPS-complex genes cause nephrotic syndrome with primary microcephaly. (82 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Patrick M. Gaffney mainly focuses on Genetics, Immunology, Genome-wide association study, Lupus erythematosus and Human leukocyte antigen. Immunology is closely attributed to Cancer research in his work. Within one scientific family, Patrick M. Gaffney focuses on topics pertaining to Genetic association under Genome-wide association study, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Genotyping, SNP array, Chromosome 12 and Meta-analysis.

His Lupus erythematosus research focuses on subjects like Polymorphism, which are linked to Vitamin D and neurology and Minor allele frequency. His studies link Haplotype with Human leukocyte antigen. Patrick M. Gaffney usually deals with Haplotype and limits it to topics linked to Major histocompatibility complex and Genetic variation, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Allele.
