1981 - Fellow of John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neurotransmitter
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Biophysics, Depolarization, Patch clamp and Membrane potential. His Electrophysiology, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Slice preparation study are his primary interests in Neuroscience. His research integrates issues of Glutamatergic and Neurotransmission in his study of Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

Specifically, his work in Biophysics is concerned with the study of Hyperpolarization. His Depolarization study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agonist and Calcium, Voltage-dependent calcium channel. In his work, Glycine receptor, Rats sprague dawley, Neurotransmitter Agents and gamma-Aminobutyric acid is strongly intertwined with Rat brain, which is a subfield of Patch clamp.

His most cited work include:

  • Development of Glycinergic Synaptic Transmission to Rat Brain Stem Motoneurons (249 citations)
  • Cotransmission of GABA and glycine to brain stem motoneurons. (225 citations)
  • Multiple potassium conductances and their role in action potential repolarization and repetitive firing behavior of neonatal rat hypoglossal motoneurons (220 citations)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Neurotransmission, Electrophysiology and Biophysics. Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Patch clamp, Hypoglossal nucleus and Motor neuron are among the areas of Neuroscience where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Endocrinology and Cardiology.

His Neurotransmission research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glycine receptor, Postsynaptic potential and Neurotransmitter. Much of his study explores Electrophysiology relationship to Depolarization. In his study, Tetrodotoxin is strongly linked to Reversal potential, which falls under the umbrella field of Depolarization.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (58.67%)
  • Internal medicine (24.00%)
  • Neurotransmission (22.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2013)?

  • Neuroscience (58.67%)
  • Neurotransmission (22.67%)
  • Inhibitory postsynaptic potential (18.67%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Neurotransmission, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Patch clamp and Hypoglossal nerve. His research in Neuroscience intersects with topics in Bicuculline and Glycine receptor. His biological study deals with issues like Excitatory postsynaptic potential, which deal with fields such as Synapse and Postsynaptic potential.

His Patch clamp research incorporates themes from gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Biophysics and Electric stimulation. The concepts of his gamma-Aminobutyric acid study are interwoven with issues in Depolarization, Electrophysiology and Membrane potential. Many of his research projects under Endocrinology are closely connected to Age groups with Age groups, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

Between 2004 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • Spike Firing Resonance in Hypoglossal Motoneurons (32 citations)
  • Inhibitory synaptic transmission governs inspiratory motoneuron synchronization. (25 citations)
  • GAD67-GFP+ neurons in the Nucleus of Roller: a possible source of inhibitory input to hypoglossal motoneurons. I. Morphology and firing properties. (21 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Internal medicine

Albert J. Berger mainly investigates Neuroscience, Neurotransmission, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Patch clamp and Electric stimulation. The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Expiration and Depolarization. Albert J. Berger performs integrative study on Expiration and Synchronization in his works.

His Depolarization study deals with the bigger picture of Biophysics. Resonance and Hypoglossal nerve are fields of study that overlap with his Electric stimulation research. His gamma-Aminobutyric acid study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Medulla oblongata.
