Torben Jørgensen focuses on Internal medicine, Genetics, Endocrinology, Genome-wide association study and Type 2 diabetes. His studies examine the connections between Internal medicine and genetics, as well as such issues in Diabetes mellitus, with regards to Waist. His research integrates issues of Frameshift mutation, Genetic association, Locus, Glucose homeostasis and Genetic architecture in his study of Genome-wide association study.
The study incorporates disciplines such as CDKAL1, Glucose tolerance test, Case-control study, Gastrointestinal Microbiome and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in addition to Type 2 diabetes. His work deals with themes such as Body mass index and Microbiome, which intersect with Obesity. His research in Microbiome intersects with topics in Zoology, Ecology, Species richness and Weight gain.
Torben Jørgensen mainly investigates Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes, Genetics and Epidemiology. His study brings together the fields of Diabetes mellitus and Internal medicine. His Type 2 diabetes study combines topics in areas such as Glucose tolerance test, Case-control study and Genotype.
Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gene, Allele frequency and Genetic variation are the primary areas of interest in his Genetics study. Genome-wide association study and Genetic association are frequently intertwined in his study. His study looks at the relationship between Obesity and topics such as Body mass index, which overlap with Demography.
His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Cohort, Epidemiology, Cohort study and Genetics. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology and Cardiology. In his work, Poisson regression and Body mass index is strongly intertwined with Demography, which is a subfield of Epidemiology.
His Genome-wide association study, Exome, Genotype, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Gene investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. His Genome-wide association study research includes themes of Quantitative trait locus, Genetic architecture, Genetic association, Imputation and Minor allele frequency. His work investigates the relationship between Insulin resistance and topics such as Type 2 diabetes that intersect with problems in Insulin.
Torben Jørgensen spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Insulin resistance and Obesity. His Internal medicine study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Endocrinology. Genetics is frequently linked to Glucose homeostasis in his study.
His work carried out in the field of Genome-wide association study brings together such families of science as Imputation, Minor allele frequency, Genetic association and Genetic architecture. His studies in Insulin resistance integrate themes in fields like Type 2 diabetes and Locus. The Obesity study combines topics in areas such as Body mass index and Gerontology.
