Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Organic chemistry

His scientific interests lie mostly in Particulates, Air pollution, Environmental health, Aerosol and Environmental chemistry. The various areas that Petros Koutrakis examines in his Particulates study include Sampling and Environmental engineering. His research on Air pollution also deals with topics like

  • Pollution and related Pollutant,
  • Cohort together with Ozone.

His work on Environmental exposure as part of his general Environmental health study is frequently connected to Extramural, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Aerosol research integrates issues from Carbon, Spectroradiometer, Mineralogy and Sulfate. In Environmental chemistry, Petros Koutrakis works on issues like Particle size, which are connected to Environmental monitoring.

His most cited work include:

  • Air Pollution and Mortality in the Medicare Population. (544 citations)
  • Source apportionment of urban particulate aliphatic and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) using multivariate methods (368 citations)
  • Using time- and size-resolved particulate data to quantify indoor penetration and deposition behavior. (344 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Air pollution, Particulates, Environmental health, Environmental chemistry and Aerosol. His Air pollution research incorporates themes from Environmental monitoring, Environmental engineering, Pollutant, Air quality index and Pollution. Petros Koutrakis works mostly in the field of Particulates, limiting it down to concerns involving Atmospheric sciences and, occasionally, Meteorology.

His Environmental health study incorporates themes from Asthma and Public health. His Environmental chemistry research includes elements of Sulfate and Ozone. The Aerosol study combines topics in areas such as Particle size, Mineralogy and Analytical chemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Air pollution (26.52%)
  • Particulates (22.97%)
  • Environmental health (19.43%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Air pollution (26.52%)
  • Particulates (22.97%)
  • Environmental health (19.43%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Air pollution, Particulates, Environmental health, Internal medicine and Atmospheric sciences. As a part of the same scientific study, Petros Koutrakis usually deals with the Air pollution, concentrating on Pollution and frequently concerns with Spatial ecology. His research in Particulates tackles topics such as Ionizing radiation which are related to areas like Inhalation.

His Environmental health study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cardiovascular mortality, Asthma, Cohort study and MEDLINE. His work focuses on many connections between Internal medicine and other disciplines, such as Cardiology, that overlap with his field of interest in Pulmonary function testing. As a part of the same scientific family, Petros Koutrakis mostly works in the field of Atmospheric sciences, focusing on Climate change and, on occasion, Physical geography and Generalized additive model.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An ensemble-based model of PM2.5 concentration across the contiguous United States with high spatiotemporal resolution (88 citations)
  • Short term exposure to fine particulate matter and hospital admission risks and costs in the Medicare population: time stratified, case crossover study (40 citations)
  • Elemental Composition and Source Apportionment of Fine and Coarse Particles at Traffic and Urban Background Locations in Athens, Greece (38 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Organic chemistry

Petros Koutrakis mainly investigates Air pollution, Particulates, Internal medicine, Environmental health and Cohort. His Air pollution research includes elements of Pollutant, Mortality rate, Air quality index, Pulmonary function testing and Environmental monitoring. His study focuses on the intersection of Pollutant and fields such as Atmospheric sciences with connections in the field of Time series, Effect modification, Air pollutants and Elemental composition.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Particulates, Environmental chemistry are connected with Particle mass and other disciplines. His research in Environmental health intersects with topics in Rate ratio, Air pollution exposure, Blood pressure and Birth cohort. His studies in Cohort integrate themes in fields like Framingham Heart Study, Framingham Risk Score and Prenatal vitamins.
