Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Epidemiology, Melanoma, Breast cancer and Gynecology. His Oncology research extends to Internal medicine, which is thematically connected. His research in Epidemiology intersects with topics in Incidence and Confidence interval.

His research integrates issues of Dermatology, Genotyping, Genotype and Odds ratio in his study of Melanoma. Richard P. Gallagher interconnects Relative risk and Gerontology in the investigation of issues within Breast cancer. His Gynecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Obstetrics, Ethnic origin, Response rate, Estrogen and Confounding.

His most cited work include:

  • Breast cancer and hormone replacement therapy: collaborative reanalysis of data from 51 epidemiological studies of 52 705 women with breast cancer and 108 411 women without breast cancer (2099 citations)
  • Breast cancer and hormonal contraceptives : collaborative reanalysis of individual data on 53.297 women with breast cancer and 100.239 women without breast cancer from 54 epidemiological studies (1062 citations)
  • Alcohol, tobacco and breast cancer--collaborative reanalysis of individual data from 53 epidemiological studies, including 58,515 women with breast cancer and 95,067 women without the disease. (836 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Melanoma, Epidemiology, Cancer and Odds ratio. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to issues related to the Oncology, and often Polymorphism. His study in Epidemiology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Confounding, Demography and Cohort.

His Cancer study incorporates themes from Gynecology and Occupational medicine. His Odds ratio research also works with subjects such as

  • Risk factor which is related to area like Surgery,
  • Case-control study and related Absolute risk reduction. His studies in Breast cancer integrate themes in fields like Relative risk and Obstetrics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (31.22%)
  • Melanoma (29.41%)
  • Epidemiology (29.41%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Melanoma (29.41%)
  • Internal medicine (31.22%)
  • Oncology (18.10%)

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

Richard P. Gallagher mostly deals with Melanoma, Internal medicine, Oncology, Odds ratio and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His studies deal with areas such as Cancer, Proportional hazards model and Pathology as well as Melanoma. His work on Meta-analysis, Body mass index and Breast cancer is typically connected to Bayesian multivariate linear regression as part of general Internal medicine study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His studies in Oncology integrate themes in fields like Sun exposure, Epidemiology, Polymorphism and Haplotype. His research in Epidemiology tackles topics such as Confounding which are related to areas like Absolute risk reduction. His Odds ratio research includes themes of Case-control study, Cohort study and Confidence interval.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte Grade in Primary Melanomas Is Independently Associated With Melanoma-Specific Survival in the Population-Based Genes, Environment and Melanoma Study (152 citations)
  • Type and timing of menopausal hormone therapy and breast cancer risk: individual participant meta-analysis of the worldwide epidemiological evidence (122 citations)
  • Association Between NRAS and BRAF Mutational Status and Melanoma-Specific Survival Among Patients With Higher-Risk Primary Melanoma. (94 citations)

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

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Melanoma, Internal medicine, Oncology, Pathology and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. He has researched Melanoma in several fields, including Survival rate, Cancer and Phenotype. His study in Cancer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Logistic regression, Genetic predisposition, Bioinformatics, Genetic association and Haplotype.

His research related to Epidemiology, Proportional hazards model and Odds ratio might be considered part of Internal medicine. His Epidemiology study incorporates themes from Meta-analysis, Breast cancer, Epidemiology of cancer and Menopausal hormone therapy. His Nevus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Allele, Allele frequency and Family history.
