Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Gene

Tamara B. Harris spends much of her time researching Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Endocrinology and Gerontology. Her Internal medicine research includes themes of Diabetes mellitus and Cardiology. She focuses mostly in the field of Genome-wide association study, narrowing it down to topics relating to Genetic association and, in certain cases, Atrial fibrillation.

Her studies in Gerontology integrate themes in fields like Epidemiology, Cohort study, Cross-sectional study, Prospective cohort study and Cohort. In her study, Sarcopenia is inextricably linked to Physical therapy, which falls within the broad field of Prospective cohort study. Within one scientific family, Tamara B. Harris focuses on topics pertaining to Hazard ratio under Risk factor, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Mortality rate and Proportional hazards model.

Her most cited work include:

  • Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids (2887 citations)
  • Gait speed and survival in older adults. (2585 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2399 citations)

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

Tamara B. Harris mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Gerontology and Endocrinology. Tamara B. Harris has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Diabetes mellitus and Cardiology. Her Genome-wide association study study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Meta-analysis, Quantitative trait locus, Genetic association and Bioinformatics.

Her work in Gerontology tackles topics such as Confidence interval which are related to areas like Proportional hazards model. Adipose tissue and Insulin resistance are the primary areas of interest in her Endocrinology study. Her study in Body mass index is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Physical therapy and Obesity.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (39.62%)
  • Genome-wide association study (18.55%)
  • Genetics (17.53%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (39.62%)
  • Genome-wide association study (18.55%)
  • Genetics (17.53%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Cohort and Prospective cohort study. Her Internal medicine research integrates issues from Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology and Cardiology. Her biological study deals with issues like Meta-analysis, which deal with fields such as Computational biology.

Her Prospective cohort study study combines topics in areas such as Physical therapy and Cohort study. Her research in Hazard ratio intersects with topics in Proportional hazards model and Risk factor. The various areas that Tamara B. Harris examines in her Confidence interval study include Odds ratio and Gerontology.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide association study identifies 74 loci associated with educational attainment (877 citations)
  • Novel genetic associations for blood pressure identified via gene-alcohol interaction in up to 570K individuals across multiple ancestries (865 citations)
  • Genetic variants associated with subjective well-being, depressive symptoms, and neuroticism identified through genome-wide analyses (634 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Disease

Tamara B. Harris mainly investigates Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Genetic association and Prospective cohort study. Her Genome-wide association study research is classified as research in Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Her Internal medicine research incorporates themes from Pathology, Endocrinology and Cardiology.

Her research investigates the connection between Prospective cohort study and topics such as Cohort study that intersect with issues in Cohort, Body mass index, Cause of death, Incidence and Relative risk. Her Body mass index study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lean body mass, Obesity and Physical therapy. Her studies deal with areas such as Quartile, Gerontology and Risk factor as well as Hazard ratio.
