Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Internal medicine, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Molecular biology. His Genetics research incorporates themes from Body mass index and Case-control study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Polymorphism, Coronary artery disease, Cholesterol, Genetic association and Locus.

His work on Blood lipids is typically connected to Mendelian randomization as part of general Cholesterol study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Internal medicine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pathology, Endocrinology and Cardiology. Thomas Quertermous has included themes like GATA2, Complementary DNA, Integrin, Cell biology and Lipase in his Molecular biology study.

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?

Thomas Quertermous spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Genetics, Gene and Cell biology. His study ties his expertise on Cardiology together with the subject of Internal medicine. His works in Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Allele, Candidate gene and Genetic architecture are all subjects of inquiry into Genetics.

His research in Genome-wide association study focuses on subjects like Coronary artery disease, which are connected to Bioinformatics and Case-control study. His research investigates the connection between Gene and topics such as Molecular biology that intersect with problems in Recombinant DNA, Biochemistry, Plasminogen activator, Complementary DNA and Antibody. Thomas Quertermous has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Endothelial stem cell, Embryonic stem cell, Angiogenesis, Cellular differentiation and Integrin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (35.50%)
  • Endocrinology (22.06%)
  • Genetics (21.85%)

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

  • Gene (17.02%)
  • Genome-wide association study (16.18%)
  • Genetics (21.85%)

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

Thomas Quertermous mostly deals with Gene, Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine and Genetic association. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Computational biology and Cell type. His work carried out in the field of Genome-wide association study brings together such families of science as Bioinformatics, Quantitative trait locus, Expression quantitative trait loci, Allele and Locus.

All of his Genetics and Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Enhancer, Allele frequency and Kidney investigations are sub-components of the entire Genetics study. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Diabetes mellitus, Type 2 diabetes, Medical genetics and Genetic architecture. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology and Cardiology.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genetic associations at 53 loci highlight cell types and biological pathways relevant for kidney function (273 citations)
  • Enhancer connectome in primary human cells identifies target genes of disease-associated DNA elements (236 citations)
  • The genetics of blood pressure regulation and its target organs from association studies in 342,415 individuals (233 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • DNA

Thomas Quertermous mainly investigates Genome-wide association study, Gene, Bioinformatics, Cell biology and Genetics. His Genome-wide association study study deals with Genetic association intersecting with Quantitative trait locus. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Gene, concentrating on Cancer research and frequently concerns with Actin cytoskeleton, Contraction, Immunohistochemistry and Hyperplasia.

His Bioinformatics research includes elements of Exome sequencing, Mutation and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Phenotype, Cell, Cell type and Transcriptome. His studies examine the connections between Kidney and genetics, as well as such issues in Transmembrane transporter activity, with regards to Internal medicine.
