Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Schizophrenia

Wolfgang Maier mainly investigates Genetics, Psychiatry, Schizophrenia, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Genome-wide association study. His work in Genetics covers topics such as Bipolar disorder which are related to areas like Major depressive disorder and Genetic heterogeneity. As part of the same scientific family, Wolfgang Maier usually focuses on Psychiatry, concentrating on Dementia and intersecting with Gerontology, Cohort study and Alzheimer's disease.

He has researched Schizophrenia in several fields, including Psychosis and Neuroscience. His study in Single-nucleotide polymorphism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Odds ratio and Haplotype. His work deals with themes such as Apolipoprotein E and ANK3, which intersect with Genome-wide association study.

His most cited work include:

  • Biological insights from 108 schizophrenia-associated genetic loci (4834 citations)
  • Meta-analysis of 74,046 individuals identifies 11 new susceptibility loci for Alzheimer's disease (2614 citations)
  • Meta-analysis of 74,046 individuals identifies 11 new susceptibility loci for Alzheimer's disease (2614 citations)

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

Wolfgang Maier mainly investigates Psychiatry, Genetics, Internal medicine, Schizophrenia and Dementia. His Psychiatry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Clinical psychology and Risk factor. His study in Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genome-wide association study, Allele, Gene and Genetic association are all subfields of Genetics.

His research integrates issues of Endocrinology and Oncology in his study of Internal medicine. The various areas that Wolfgang Maier examines in his Schizophrenia study include Bipolar disorder, Psychosis and Neuroscience. His studies deal with areas such as Alzheimer's disease, Proportional hazards model, Cognition and Gerontology as well as Dementia.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Psychiatry (28.75%)
  • Genetics (25.84%)
  • Internal medicine (24.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Dementia (25.38%)
  • Gerontology (15.02%)
  • Disease (13.27%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Dementia, Gerontology, Disease, Depression and Clinical psychology. His Dementia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Alzheimer's disease, Odds ratio and Epidemiology. His Alzheimer's disease study incorporates themes from Genetics and TREM2.

His Disease study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Genome-wide association study. The concepts of his Genome-wide association study study are interwoven with issues in Eating disorders and Bipolar disorder. His Clinical psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Schizophrenia, Psychosis, Cognition and Association.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide association analyses identify 44 risk variants and refine the genetic architecture of major depression (1131 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study identifies 30 loci associated with bipolar disorder (518 citations)
  • A nonsynonymous mutation in PLCG2 reduces the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies and frontotemporal dementia, and increases the likelihood of longevity (44 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Disease

His primary scientific interests are in Dementia, Genome-wide association study, Disease, Internal medicine and Alzheimer's disease. His Dementia research integrates issues from Odds ratio, Proportional hazards model, Epidemiology and Cohort. His Genome-wide association study study results in a more complete grasp of Genetics.

His Disease study combines topics in areas such as Microvesicles, Non-coding RNA, Piwi-interacting RNA and Bioinformatics. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Antidepressant and Oncology. The concepts of his Alzheimer's disease study are interwoven with issues in Missense mutation, Progressive supranuclear palsy, Frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease and Dementia with Lewy bodies.
