Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Genetics

Themistocles L. Assimes mainly focuses on Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Cholesterol. His research in Genome-wide association study intersects with topics in Allele, Polymorphism, Bioinformatics, Coronary artery disease and Quantitative trait locus. The Genetics study which covers Body mass index that intersects with Obesity, SH2B1 and Glucose homeostasis.

He works mostly in the field of Internal medicine, limiting it down to concerns involving Genotype and, occasionally, Odds ratio and Genetic variation. His Cholesterol study which covers Mendelian randomization that intersects with Heart disease, High-density lipoprotein, Triglyceride and Genotyping. His Blood lipids research integrates issues from KLF14 and Lipid metabolism.

His most cited work include:

  • Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids (2804 citations)
  • Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids (2804 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Coronary artery disease and Genetic association. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes, Mendelian randomization and Cardiology. He combines subjects such as Bioinformatics, Linkage disequilibrium, Quantitative trait locus, Genetic architecture and Genetic variation with his study of Genome-wide association study.

His is involved in several facets of Genetics study, as is seen by his studies on Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gene, Allele, Locus and Genotype. His study focuses on the intersection of Coronary artery disease and fields such as Disease with connections in the field of Biomarker and Epigenetics. His Genetic association study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Body mass index and Candidate gene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (57.23%)
  • Genome-wide association study (38.35%)
  • Genetics (32.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (57.23%)
  • Coronary artery disease (29.50%)
  • Disease (23.30%)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Coronary artery disease, Disease, Mendelian randomization and Cardiology. His studies deal with areas such as Endocrinology, Genetic variation and Type 2 diabetes as well as Internal medicine. His Type 2 diabetes research includes themes of Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Dementia and PCSK9.

His study in Disease is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genetics, Genetic association, dNaM and Cancer mortality. His Mendelian randomization research incorporates elements of Stroke, Genome-wide association study, Mendelian Randomization Analysis and Risk factor. His Genome-wide association study study incorporates themes from Aneurysm, Biobank and PDIFF.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Transcriptomic signatures across human tissues identify functional rare genetic variation (22 citations)
  • Transcriptomic signatures across human tissues identify functional rare genetic variation (22 citations)
  • Chromosome 1q21.2 and additional loci influence risk of spontaneous coronary artery dissection and myocardial infarction. (9 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cancer

Themistocles L. Assimes focuses on Genome-wide association study, Mendelian randomization, Internal medicine, Biobank and Linkage disequilibrium. Genome-wide association study is a subfield of Genetics that Themistocles L. Assimes investigates. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Mendelian randomization, Genetic association, Cholesterol, Population stratification, Oncology and Confounding is strongly linked to Odds ratio.

His research integrates issues of Chromosome and Cardiology in his study of Internal medicine. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Precision medicine, Genotyping, Genetic genealogy and Cohort. He interconnects Pleiotropism, Pleiotropy, Bioinformatics, Mendelian Randomization Analysis and Migraine in the investigation of issues within Linkage disequilibrium.
