Research summary

Rebecca D. Jackson's publication record centers on large-scale genetic epidemiology, particularly genome-wide association studies (GWAS) linking genetic variants to conditions such as osteoarthritis, bone health, chronic back pain, and blood lipid levels. Much of this work involves collaborative, multi-cohort meta-analyses examining how genetics and hormone-related factors affect musculoskeletal and metabolic health, often in women's health contexts, with some more distinct outputs on viral genomics and training program evaluation likely reflecting co-authorship contributions rather than a primary focus.

Publication output grew fairly steadily from 2017 through a peak in 2023, followed by a notable decline in 2024-2025, though this recent drop may partly reflect incomplete indexing of the most recent years.
