Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Major depressive disorder
  • Psychiatry
  • Internal medicine

Her primary areas of investigation include Psychiatry, Depression, Major depressive disorder, Clinical psychology and Psychosocial. Many of her research projects under Psychiatry are closely connected to Longitudinal study and Suicide prevention with Longitudinal study and Suicide prevention, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. Uma Rao has researched Depression in several fields, including Intervention, Pediatrics, Family history, Cohort and Comorbidity.

Her Major depressive disorder research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Internal medicine, Corpus callosum, Sleep onset and Anxiety. Her research integrates issues of Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia, Childhood schizophrenia and Rating scale in her study of Clinical psychology. Her Psychosocial study which covers Cortisol secretion that intersects with Mood disorders, Stressor and Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis.

Her most cited work include:

  • Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL): Initial Reliability and Validity Data (7131 citations)
  • Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL): Initial Reliability and Validity Data (7131 citations)
  • Unipolar depression in adolescents: clinical outcome in adulthood. (411 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Psychiatry, Depression, Major depressive disorder, Clinical psychology and Psychosocial. The study incorporates disciplines such as Young adult and Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in addition to Psychiatry. Her Depression research includes themes of Hydrocortisone, Internal medicine, Cohort and Comorbidity.

Her research investigates the connection between Major depressive disorder and topics such as Sleep in non-human animals that intersect with problems in Eye movement and Electroencephalography. Her study in Clinical psychology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Psychological intervention, Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia, Etiology and Behavioral neuroscience. Her study ties her expertise on Childhood schizophrenia together with the subject of Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Psychiatry (64.91%)
  • Depression (57.02%)
  • Major depressive disorder (51.75%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2018)?

  • Clinical psychology (49.12%)
  • Developmental psychology (19.30%)
  • Stress reactivity (9.65%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Clinical psychology, Developmental psychology, Stress reactivity, Depressive symptoms and Conditioned pain modulation. Her Clinical psychology research incorporates elements of Neglect and Stress exposure. Her studies deal with areas such as Stressor, Cortisol level, Behavioral neuroscience and Anxiety as well as Developmental psychology.

Her study looks at the intersection of Stress reactivity and topics like Psychosocial stress with Depression. Uma Rao focuses mostly in the field of Depressive symptoms, narrowing it down to matters related to Psychiatric status rating scales and, in some cases, Young adult. Her study with Psychosocial involves better knowledge in Psychiatry.

Between 2014 and 2018, her most popular works were:

  • Interaction between early life stress and alcohol dependence on neural stress reactivity (16 citations)
  • Interaction between early life stress and alcohol dependence on neural stress reactivity (16 citations)
  • Race effects on temporal summation to heat pain in youth. (14 citations)

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

  • Major depressive disorder
  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry

Her primary areas of study are Multilevel model, Chronic pain, Audiology, Developmental psychology and Anxiety. Multilevel model is integrated with Physical therapy, Stimulus, Conditioned pain modulation, Perceived pain and African american in her study. The various areas that Uma Rao examines in her Chronic pain study include Heat pain, Threshold of pain, Clinical psychology and Summation.

She interconnects Insula, Orbitofrontal cortex and Stressor in the investigation of issues within Audiology. Her Developmental psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Prefrontal cortex, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Anticipation and Amygdala. Her Anxiety research integrates issues from Neuroscience and Functional connectivity.
