Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience
  • Genetics

Alejandro F. Schinder focuses on Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Dentate gyrus, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Hippocampal formation. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Neuroscience, concentrating on Anatomy and frequently concerns with Entorhinal cortex. Dentate gyrus is a subfield of Central nervous system that Alejandro F. Schinder tackles.

His studies examine the connections between Excitatory postsynaptic potential and genetics, as well as such issues in Glutamatergic, with regards to Patch clamp, Cellular neuroscience and Non-spiking neuron. His studies deal with areas such as Bioinformatics and Neuropoiesis as well as Hippocampal formation. His work in Hippocampus covers topics such as Synaptogenesis which are related to areas like GABAergic.

His most cited work include:

  • Functional neurogenesis in the adult hippocampus (2497 citations)
  • Mitochondrial Dysfunction Is a Primary Event in Glutamate Neurotoxicity (691 citations)
  • The neurotrophin hypothesis for synaptic plasticity (620 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Dentate gyrus, Hippocampal formation and Synaptogenesis. His research in Neuroscience focuses on subjects like Glutamatergic, which are connected to Ageing. The study incorporates disciplines such as Hippocampus, Hippocampal function, Anatomy, Neuroplasticity and Neural stem cell in addition to Neurogenesis.

His research in Dentate gyrus intersects with topics in Electrophysiology, Parvalbumin, Environmental enrichment and Synaptic plasticity. The various areas that Alejandro F. Schinder examines in his Hippocampal formation study include Neuropoiesis, Neural Inhibition, Human brain and Cell biology. His work in Synaptogenesis addresses issues such as Aging brain, which are connected to fields such as Period and Neurotrophin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (81.82%)
  • Neurogenesis (62.12%)
  • Dentate gyrus (56.06%)

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

  • Neuroscience (81.82%)
  • Neurogenesis (62.12%)
  • Dentate gyrus (56.06%)

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

Alejandro F. Schinder mainly investigates Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Dentate gyrus, GABAergic and Synaptogenesis. Neuroscience is closely attributed to Neural stem cell in his study. His Dentate gyrus study often links to related topics such as Neuron.

As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of GABAergic, focusing on Parvalbumin and, on occasion, Lateral inhibition, Optogenetics and Granule cell. In his study, Neurodegeneration and Period is strongly linked to Aging brain, which falls under the umbrella field of Synaptogenesis. His Hippocampal formation study combines topics in areas such as Receptor, Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurotrophic factors and Nervous system.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Human Adult Neurogenesis: Evidence and Remaining Questions. (297 citations)
  • Differential Coupling of Adult-Born Granule Cells to Parvalbumin and Somatostatin Interneurons (13 citations)
  • GDNF and GFRα1 Are Required for Proper Integration of Adult-Born Hippocampal Neurons (10 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Genetics
  • Neuroscience

Alejandro F. Schinder spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Dentate gyrus, Synaptogenesis and Cognition. Many of his studies on Neuroscience apply to Receptor as well. His Receptor research integrates issues from Hippocampal formation and Nervous system.

His Cognition research includes elements of Neuroplasticity and Hippocampus. The concepts of his Excitatory postsynaptic potential study are interwoven with issues in Aging brain, Glutamatergic, Environmental enrichment and Postsynaptic potential. His Parvalbumin research includes themes of GABAergic, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Lateral inhibition, Optogenetics and Soma.
