Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

Suzanne M. Leal focuses on Genetics, Exome sequencing, Mutation, Genome-wide association study and Pathology. Her study in Genetics concentrates on Locus, Haplotype, Candidate gene, Allele and Exome. Suzanne M. Leal has researched Haplotype in several fields, including Human genome and Genetic association.

Her work deals with themes such as Computational biology and DNA sequencing, which intersect with Genetic association. Suzanne M. Leal interconnects Vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor, Case-control study, Bioinformatics and Genetic architecture in the investigation of issues within Genome-wide association study. Her study focuses on the intersection of International HapMap Project and fields such as Tag SNP with connections in the field of Linkage disequilibrium, Imputation, Structural variation and Haplotype estimation.

Her most cited work include:

  • A haplotype map of the human genome (5144 citations)
  • A second generation human haplotype map of over 3.1 million SNPs (3819 citations)
  • Genome-wide detection and characterization of positive selection in human populations (1413 citations)

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

Suzanne M. Leal spends much of her time researching Genetics, Locus, Gene, Genetic linkage and Exome sequencing. Suzanne M. Leal studied Genetics and Hearing loss that intersect with Nonsyndromic deafness. The various areas that Suzanne M. Leal examines in her Locus study include Genetic marker, Lod score, Gene mapping, Genetic heterogeneity and Candidate gene.

Her Genetic linkage study combines topics in areas such as Consanguinity, Chromosome and Mendelian inheritance. Her research in Genetic association intersects with topics in Genome-wide association study and Computational biology. Her study in Haplotype is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Allele frequency.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (80.06%)
  • Locus (25.00%)
  • Gene (23.42%)

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

  • Genetics (80.06%)
  • Exome sequencing (15.51%)
  • Missense mutation (12.66%)

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

Suzanne M. Leal mainly investigates Genetics, Exome sequencing, Missense mutation, Gene and Sanger sequencing. Allele, Pedigree chart, Genetic heterogeneity, Locus heterogeneity and Mendelian inheritance are subfields of Genetics in which her conducts study. Her Exome sequencing study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Intellectual disability, Inner ear, Polydactyly and Human genetics.

Her study looks at the relationship between Gene and topics such as Etiology, which overlap with Genetic variation, Ashkenazi jews, Allele frequency and Sensorineural hearing loss. Her Sanger sequencing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Transmission disequilibrium test, Three prime untranslated region, Exome and Compound heterozygosity. Suzanne M. Leal combines subjects such as Multiple comparisons problem and Linkage disequilibrium with her study of Transmission disequilibrium test.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Discovery of common and rare genetic risk variants for colorectal cancer (131 citations)
  • LTBP3 Pathogenic Variants Predispose Individuals to Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms and Dissections (25 citations)
  • SMAD3 pathogenic variants: risk for thoracic aortic disease and associated complications from the Montalcino Aortic Consortium (21 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Genetics

Her primary areas of study are Genetics, Allele, Pedigree chart, Missense mutation and Exome sequencing. Her research in Genetic heterogeneity, Haplotype, Sanger sequencing, Exome and Genetic linkage are components of Genetics. Her Haplotype research integrates issues from Genetic architecture, Colorectal cancer and Clinical significance.

Her work carried out in the field of Allele brings together such families of science as Family aggregation, SORL1, Locus heterogeneity, Genetic association and Linkage. Her Missense mutation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Aortic disease, MYLK, Kinase, Genetic testing and Myosin. The study incorporates disciplines such as Polydactyly, Anatomy and Compound heterozygosity in addition to Exome sequencing.
