Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

Angel Nuñez focuses on Neuroscience, Electrophysiology, Cerebral cortex, Thalamus and Central nervous system. He has researched Neuroscience in several fields, including Synaptic plasticity, Postsynaptic potential and Anatomy. Specifically, his work in Electrophysiology is concerned with the study of Hyperpolarization.

The Cerebral cortex study combines topics in areas such as Sensory system, Bursting and Depolarization. His studies in Thalamus integrate themes in fields like Rhythm and Electroencephalography. Angel Nuñez interconnects Receptor and Circadian rhythm in the investigation of issues within Central nervous system.

His most cited work include:

  • A novel slow (< 1 Hz) oscillation of neocortical neurons in vivo: depolarizing and hyperpolarizing components (1476 citations)
  • Intracellular analysis of relations between the slow (< 1 Hz) neocortical oscillation and other sleep rhythms of the electroencephalogram (731 citations)
  • The slow (< 1 Hz) oscillation in reticular thalamic and thalamocortical neurons: scenario of sleep rhythm generation in interacting thalamic and neocortical networks (628 citations)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Somatosensory system, Sensory system, Electrophysiology and Stimulation. His research ties Synaptic plasticity and Neuroscience together. Many of his research projects under Somatosensory system are closely connected to Bicuculline with Bicuculline, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His work on Sensory processing as part of general Sensory system research is frequently linked to Computer science, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Electrophysiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cerebral cortex, Membrane potential, Biophysics, Depolarization and Bursting. As part of the same scientific family, Angel Nuñez usually focuses on Stimulation, concentrating on Nucleus and intersecting with Anatomy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (80.99%)
  • Somatosensory system (25.62%)
  • Sensory system (24.79%)

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

  • Neuroscience (80.99%)
  • Sensory system (24.79%)
  • Stimulation (23.14%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Sensory system, Stimulation, Thalamus and Somatosensory system. His research in Neuroscience intersects with topics in Synaptic plasticity and Long-term potentiation. In his study, Postsynaptic potential is strongly linked to Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, which falls under the umbrella field of Synaptic plasticity.

In his research on the topic of Stimulation, Electroencephalography, Visual cortex and Encoding is strongly related with Stimulus. His Thalamus research focuses on Perception and how it connects with Sensory stimulation therapy and Thalamic nucleus. His study explores the link between Somatosensory system and topics such as Cortex that cross with problems in Prefrontal cortex, Basal forebrain and Cholinergic neuron.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rare-earth-doped fluoride nanoparticles with engineered long luminescence lifetime for time-gated in vivo optical imaging in the second biological window. (37 citations)
  • Posterior thalamic nucleus axon terminals have different structure and functional impact in the motor and somatosensory vibrissal cortices. (14 citations)
  • Basal Forebrain Nuclei Display Distinct Projecting Pathways and Functional Circuits to Sensory Primary and Prefrontal Cortices in the Rat. (13 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Stimulation, Sensory system, Somatosensory system and Diagonal band of Broca. His Neuroscience research includes themes of Long-term potentiation and Postsynaptic potential. His work deals with themes such as Neuropathic pain and Nociception, which intersect with Stimulation.

His research integrates issues of Ionotropic effect, Metabotropic glutamate receptor, Thalamus, Axon and Metabotropic receptor in his study of Sensory system. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sensory processing, Cortex and Substantia innominata in addition to Diagonal band of Broca. The study of Basal forebrain is intertwined with the study of Prefrontal cortex in a number of ways.
