Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Asthma

Scott T. Weiss spends much of his time researching Asthma, Internal medicine, Immunology, Pediatrics and Risk factor. The study incorporates disciplines such as Odds ratio, Relative risk, Physical therapy and Allergy in addition to Asthma. His research investigates the connection with Internal medicine and areas like Endocrinology which intersect with concerns in Physiology.

The Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Intensive care, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association and COPD. His studies in Pediatrics integrate themes in fields like Wheeze, Pregnancy, Birth weight, Epidemiology and Pulmonary function testing. His research in Risk factor intersects with topics in Cross-sectional study, Anxiety, Prospective cohort study and Cardiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Long-term effects of budesonide or nedocromil in children with asthma. (1143 citations)
  • The Salmeterol Multicenter Asthma Research Trial: A Comparison of Usual Pharmacotherapy for Asthma or Usual Pharmacotherapy Plus Salmeterol (938 citations)
  • WORLDWIDE SEVERITY AND CONTROL OF ASTHMA IN CHILDREN AND ADULTS : THE GLOBAL ASTHMA INSIGHTS AND REALITY SURVEYS (777 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Asthma, Immunology, Internal medicine, Genetics and Pediatrics. His Asthma study combines topics in areas such as Odds ratio, Allergy, Vitamin D and neurology, Physical therapy and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His studies deal with areas such as Respiratory disease and Disease as well as Immunology.

Scott T. Weiss has included themes like Endocrinology and Cardiology in his Internal medicine study. His Genome-wide association study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic association and Bioinformatics. His work deals with themes such as Spirometry and Pulmonary function testing, which intersect with FEV1/FVC ratio.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Asthma (51.10%)
  • Immunology (32.40%)
  • Internal medicine (30.87%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Asthma (51.10%)
  • Computational biology (8.06%)
  • Genome-wide association study (13.84%)

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

Asthma, Computational biology, Genome-wide association study, Immunology and Internal medicine are his primary areas of study. His Asthma research incorporates themes from Offspring, Vitamin D and neurology, Prenatal vitamins, Allergy and Pediatrics. His research on Computational biology also deals with topics like

  • Mutation rate and Jaccard index most often made with reference to Genome,
  • Disease, which have a strong connection to Liver function and Bioinformatics.

His Genome-wide association study research integrates issues from Genetic variation, Genetic association and Allele frequency. His Immunology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Peripheral blood mononuclear cell. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Risk of COVID-19 among front-line health-care workers and the general community: a prospective cohort study. (394 citations)
  • Sequencing of 53,831 diverse genomes from the NHLBI TOPMed Program (143 citations)
  • Network Medicine in the Age of Biomedical Big Data. (56 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Disease

Asthma, Computational biology, Genome, Genome-wide association study and Genetic variation are his primary areas of study. Internal medicine covers Scott T. Weiss research in Asthma. He has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Gastroenterology, Placebo and Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

His Computational biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Genotype imputation, Gene expression profiling, Pulmonary disease, Disease and Mediator. His Genome-wide association study study incorporates themes from Imputation and Linkage disequilibrium. His research integrates issues of Evolutionary biology and Human genetics in his study of Genetic variation.
