Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Public health
  • Health care
  • Poverty

Her primary scientific interests are in Environmental health, Psychological intervention, Malnutrition, Economic growth and Developing country. Her research in Environmental health intersects with topics in Overweight, Obesity, Nutrition transition, Micronutrient and Pediatrics. The Psychological intervention study combines topics in areas such as Breastfeeding, Stunted growth, Scale and Breast feeding.

Her Malnutrition research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Adolescent health, Socioeconomic status, Intervention and Developmental psychology. Her work on Global health, Gross national income, Gross domestic product and Human development as part of general Economic growth study is frequently linked to Opportunity cost, bridging the gap between disciplines. Susan Horton works mostly in the field of Child mortality, limiting it down to topics relating to Occupational prestige and, in certain cases, Demography, as a part of the same area of interest.

Her most cited work include:

  • Breastfeeding in the 21st century: epidemiology, mechanisms, and lifelong effect (2248 citations)
  • Evidence-based interventions for improvement of maternal and child nutrition: What can be done and at what cost? (1483 citations)
  • Why invest, and what it will take to improve breastfeeding practices? (770 citations)

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

Susan Horton spends much of her time researching Psychological intervention, Environmental health, Economic growth, Developing country and Health care. The various areas that Susan Horton examines in her Psychological intervention study include Cancer, Gross national income, Public economics, Scale and Malnutrition. The concepts of her Malnutrition study are interwoven with issues in Productivity and Gerontology.

Her work deals with themes such as Obesity, Health economics, Public health, Natural resource economics and Micronutrient, which intersect with Environmental health. Her Public health research includes themes of Overweight and Child mortality. Her study in Global health and Poverty is carried out as part of her Economic growth studies.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Psychological intervention (20.88%)
  • Environmental health (19.78%)
  • Economic growth (15.38%)

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

  • Psychological intervention (20.88%)
  • Environmental health (19.78%)
  • Cancer (7.14%)

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

Her main research concerns Psychological intervention, Environmental health, Cancer, Economic evaluation and Family medicine. Her Psychological intervention study combines topics in areas such as Developing country, Social cognitive theory, Per capita and Investment. Developing country is the subject of her research, which falls under Economic growth.

Her study looks at the intersection of Environmental health and topics like Scale with Food choice. In her research, Pediatrics, Pharmacy and Survival rate is intimately related to Pediatric cancer, which falls under the overarching field of Family medicine. The concepts of her Gross national income study are interwoven with issues in Case mix index, Actuarial science and Global health.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Delivering modern, high-quality, affordable pathology and laboratory medicine to low-income and middle-income countries: a call to action (41 citations)
  • Sustainable care for children with cancer: a Lancet Oncology Commission (29 citations)
  • Palliative Care in the Global Setting: ASCO Resource-Stratified Practice Guideline (25 citations)

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

  • Health care
  • Public health
  • Cancer

Susan Horton mainly focuses on Environmental health, Commission, Family medicine, Cancer and Psychological intervention. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Randomized controlled trial, CINAHL, Deworming, Mass deworming and Meta-analysis. Her Commission study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Economic growth, Human development and Developing country.

Susan Horton studies Global health which is a part of Economic growth. Her Family medicine research focuses on Pediatric cancer and how it connects with Survival rate, Pharmacy, Pediatrics and Overhead. Susan Horton combines subjects such as Inequality, Stakeholder and Scale with her study of Psychological intervention.
