Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Pathology

Thomas B. Fitzpatrick mostly deals with Dermatology, Methoxsalen, Biochemistry, Melanin and Melanosome. His Dermatology research integrates issues from Oral administration, Clinical trial and Cutaneous melanoma. The Methoxsalen study combines topics in areas such as Minimal erythema dose, Ultraviolet a and PUVA therapy.

His studies examine the connections between Melanin and genetics, as well as such issues in Cell biology, with regards to Melanin pigment. His research integrates issues of Membranous organelles, Pathology, Subcutaneous injection, Melanocyte and Epidermis in his study of Melanosome. His study in Pathology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Melanoma and Lentigo.

His most cited work include:

  • Dermatology in general medicine (3682 citations)
  • The Validity and Practicality of Sun-Reactive Skin Types I Through VI (2537 citations)
  • Fitzpatrick's dermatology in general medicine. (1842 citations)

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

Thomas B. Fitzpatrick focuses on Dermatology, Melanoma, Pathology, Melanin and Melanosome. His work on Dermatology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Cutaneous melanoma. His Melanoma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Internal medicine, Primary tumor and Surgery.

His work in the fields of Melanin, such as Melanin pigment, overlaps with other areas such as Human skin. Thomas B. Fitzpatrick works mostly in the field of Melanosome, limiting it down to topics relating to Cell biology and, in certain cases, Anatomy. His research in Psoriasis intersects with topics in Prospective cohort study, Adverse effect and Chemotherapy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Dermatology (52.30%)
  • Melanoma (20.08%)
  • Pathology (15.90%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1986-2011)?

  • Dermatology (52.30%)
  • Melanoma (20.08%)
  • Cutaneous melanoma (6.69%)

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

His main research concerns Dermatology, Melanoma, Cutaneous melanoma, Pathology and Psoriasis. His Dermatology study incorporates themes from Oral administration and Biopsy. His Melanoma research incorporates themes from Stage and Skin cancer.

Thomas B. Fitzpatrick combines subjects such as Surgery, Family history, Medical emergency, Superficial spreading melanoma and Emergency medicine with his study of Cutaneous melanoma. The study incorporates disciplines such as Medical prescription and Medical education in addition to Pathology. His Psoriasis study combines topics in areas such as Clinical trial, Treatment modality, Methotrexate and Chemotherapy.

Between 1986 and 2011, his most popular works were:

  • The Validity and Practicality of Sun-Reactive Skin Types I Through VI (2537 citations)
  • Fitzpatrick's dermatology in general medicine. (1842 citations)
  • Risk factors for cutaneous melanoma. A practical method of recognizing predisposed individuals. (265 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Pathology

His primary areas of study are Dermatology, Human skin, Oral administration, Vitiligo and Nevus. His study in Dermatology focuses on PUVA therapy, Phototype, Methoxsalen, Dermatologic surgery and Skin lesion. His PUVA therapy research includes themes of Toxicity, Oral ingestion and Ultraviolet a.

Thomas B. Fitzpatrick has included themes like Photoaging and Sunburn in his Methoxsalen study. The concepts of his Oral administration study are interwoven with issues in Erythema and Antioxidant. His work carried out in the field of Nevus brings together such families of science as Disease, Cutaneous melanoma and Risk factor.
