His main research concerns Genetics, Alzheimer's disease, Locus, Gene and Degenerative disease. His work on Age of onset expands to the thematically related Genetics. His Alzheimer's disease research integrates issues from Dementia, Physiology and Genetic testing.
Thomas D. Bird works mostly in the field of Locus, limiting it down to topics relating to Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Type 1A and, in certain cases, Peripheral myelin protein 22, as a part of the same area of interest. The various areas that he examines in his Degenerative disease study include Genetic determinism and Progressive supranuclear palsy. His Mutation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Molecular biology, Microtubule, Neuroscience and Exon.
Thomas D. Bird spends much of his time researching Genetics, GeneReviews, Pathology, Internal medicine and Disease. His is doing research in Locus, Gene, Mutation, Genetic linkage and Allele, both of which are found in Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Genetic heterogeneity and Gene mapping as well as Locus.
His research in Allele intersects with topics in Apolipoprotein E and Genotype. Thomas D. Bird interconnects Dermatology, Molecular biology and Pediatrics in the investigation of issues within GeneReviews. His Internal medicine research includes elements of Gastroenterology and Endocrinology.
His scientific interests lie mostly in GeneReviews, Internal medicine, Pediatrics, Pathology and Dermatology. His GeneReviews research entails a greater understanding of Genetics. His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology.
All of his Pathology and Spinocerebellar ataxia and Neuropathology investigations are sub-components of the entire Pathology study.
