His primary areas of investigation include Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Single-nucleotide polymorphism.
His Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of SNP, Medical genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Allele and Genetic association.
His work carried out in the field of Genetic association brings together such families of science as Blood pressure, Bioinformatics and Glucose homeostasis.
His research on Genetics often connects related areas such as Body mass index.
His work deals with themes such as FTO gene, Demography and Gerontology, which intersect with Body mass index.
In the field of Single-nucleotide polymorphism, his study on Minor allele frequency and Imputation overlaps with subjects such as SCARB1.
His most cited work include:
- Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids (2804 citations)
- Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: A pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19.2 million participants (2278 citations)
- Worldwide trends in body-mass index, underweight, overweight, and obesity from 1975 to 2016: a pooled analysis of 2416 population-based measurement studies in 128·9 million children, adolescents, and adults (2180 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Peter Vollenweider mostly deals with Internal medicine, Genetics, Endocrinology, Genome-wide association study and Body mass index.
His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Diabetes mellitus and Cardiology.
His Genetics study is mostly concerned with Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Locus, Allele, Gene and Genotype.
His studies in Genome-wide association study integrate themes in fields like SNP, Medical genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Genetic association and Candidate gene.
Peter Vollenweider combines subjects such as Cross-sectional study, Demography, Obesity and Cohort with his study of Body mass index.
His Demography research incorporates elements of Epidemiology and Gerontology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Internal medicine (39.80%)
- Genetics (22.43%)
- Endocrinology (21.92%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

- Genetics (22.43%)
- Cohort (5.73%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Peter Vollenweider focuses on Internal medicine, Genetics, Cohort, Genome-wide association study and Physiology.
His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Cardiology.
His work on Total cholesterol and Diabetes mellitus as part of general Endocrinology study is frequently linked to Non hdl cholesterol, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His work in Genetics covers topics such as Blood lipids which are related to areas like Triglyceride.
His SNP research extends to Genome-wide association study, which is thematically connected.
His Epidemiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Body mass index and Demography.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Maternal and fetal genetic effects on birth weight and their relevance to cardio-metabolic risk factors (129 citations)
- Target genes, variants, tissues and transcriptional pathways influencing human serum urate levels (66 citations)
- A catalog of genetic loci associated with kidney function from analyses of a million individuals (52 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Diabetes mellitus
Peter Vollenweider mostly deals with Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Cohort and Body mass index.
His study in Genome-wide association study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pleiotropy, Gout, Gene expression, Physiology and Genetic architecture.
His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Gastroenterology and Functional decline.
Peter Vollenweider has researched Cohort in several fields, including Rate ratio, Incidence, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Population based sample and Systemic inflammation.
His study explores the link between Body mass index and topics such as Obesity that cross with problems in Depression, Postmenopausal women and Large population.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Bioelectrical impedance analysis, FTO gene, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Lean body mass in addition to Locus.
