Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Cancer

His primary areas of study are Cancer research, Molecular biology, Pathology, Stem cell and Hepatocellular carcinoma. He has researched Cancer research in several fields, including Carcinogenesis, Cancer, Immunology and Gene expression profiling. The study incorporates disciplines such as Regulation of gene expression and Gene silencing in addition to Carcinogenesis.

His Molecular biology research includes themes of Cell culture, In vitro, Gene expression and Transforming growth factor, Transforming growth factor beta. Snorri S. Thorgeirsson interconnects Embryonic stem cell, Cellular differentiation and Liver regeneration in the investigation of issues within Stem cell. In Hepatocellular carcinoma, Snorri S. Thorgeirsson works on issues like Carcinoma, which are connected to Oncology.

His most cited work include:

  • Molecular pathogenesis of human hepatocellular carcinoma. (1248 citations)
  • Acetaminophen-Induced Hepatic Necrosis (964 citations)
  • A novel prognostic subtype of human hepatocellular carcinoma derived from hepatic progenitor cells. (733 citations)

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

Snorri S. Thorgeirsson focuses on Cancer research, Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Internal medicine and Carcinogenesis. His Cancer research study combines topics in areas such as Cancer and Stem cell. His Stem cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cellular differentiation and Pathology.

His Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cell culture, Gene expression, Cell growth, Hepatocyte and Liver regeneration. The various areas that Snorri S. Thorgeirsson examines in his Internal medicine study include Endocrinology and Oncology. His work is dedicated to discovering how Carcinogenesis, Genetically modified mouse are connected with Transforming growth factor and other disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (28.30%)
  • Biochemistry (17.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

  • Cancer research (29.17%)
  • Liver cancer (8.26%)
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (12.48%)

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

Cancer research, Liver cancer, Hepatocellular carcinoma, Cancer and Internal medicine are his primary areas of study. His Cancer research research includes elements of Cancer cell, Cancer stem cell, Stem cell, Carcinogenesis and Pathology. His study on Stem cell also encompasses disciplines like

  • Cellular differentiation and related Embryonic stem cell and Cell biology,
  • Hepatocyte growth factor that intertwine with fields like Signal transduction and Liver regeneration.

His study in Pathology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Progenitor cell and Extracellular matrix. His research in Hepatocellular carcinoma focuses on subjects like Immunohistochemistry, which are connected to Western blot. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Endocrinology and Oncology.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Genomic and Genetic Characterization of Cholangiocarcinoma Identifies Therapeutic Targets for Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (283 citations)
  • Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 occur frequently in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas and share hypermethylation targets with glioblastomas. (237 citations)
  • Integrative Genomic Identification of Genes on 8p Associated With Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression and Patient Survival (210 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Cancer

Snorri S. Thorgeirsson mainly focuses on Cancer research, Liver cancer, Stem cell, Hepatocellular carcinoma and Cancer. His study in Cancer research is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Progenitor cell, Cancer stem cell, Side population, Cancer cell and Molecular biology. His research ties Small hairpin RNA and Molecular biology together.

Snorri S. Thorgeirsson has included themes like Malignant transformation, Immunology, Etiology and Genomics in his Liver cancer study. Pathology, Hepatocyte growth factor, Hepatic stellate cell, In vivo and Induced pluripotent stem cell is closely connected to Cellular differentiation in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Stem cell. Hepatocellular carcinoma is the subject of his research, which falls under Internal medicine.
