Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Epilepsy

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Epilepsy, Inflammation, Epileptogenesis, Proinflammatory cytokine and Internal medicine. The Epilepsy study combines topics in areas such as Immunology and Blood–brain barrier. Her Inflammation research integrates issues from Acute encephalopathy, Pharmacoresistant epilepsy and Febrile infection related epilepsy syndrome.

Annamaria Vezzani has researched Epileptogenesis in several fields, including Bioinformatics and Kindling. She has included themes like Seizure threshold and Neurodegeneration in her Proinflammatory cytokine study. Her Internal medicine study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Endocrinology.

Her most cited work include:

  • The clinicopathologic spectrum of focal cortical dysplasias: A consensus classification proposed by an ad hoc Task Force of the ILAE Diagnostic Methods Commission (1092 citations)
  • The role of inflammation in epilepsy (977 citations)
  • Brain Inflammation in Epilepsy : Experimental and Clinical Evidence (766 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Epilepsy, Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Epileptogenesis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Inflammation, Proinflammatory cytokine and Pharmacology in addition to Epilepsy. In her work, Cortical dysplasia is strongly intertwined with Pathology, which is a subfield of Inflammation.

Her Neuroscience research includes elements of Neuroinflammation, Microglia and Neurotransmission. Her Endocrinology research incorporates themes from Kainic acid and Neuropeptide Y receptor. Annamaria Vezzani interconnects Seizure threshold, Bioinformatics, Neurodegeneration, Disease and Central nervous system in the investigation of issues within Epileptogenesis.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Epilepsy (49.33%)
  • Neuroscience (34.67%)
  • Internal medicine (32.33%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Epilepsy (49.33%)
  • Neuroscience (34.67%)
  • Epileptogenesis (27.00%)

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

Annamaria Vezzani mainly investigates Epilepsy, Neuroscience, Epileptogenesis, Neuroinflammation and Inflammation. Her Epilepsy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Hippocampus, Disease and Immunology. Hippocampus is a subfield of Internal medicine that Annamaria Vezzani tackles.

Her Neuroscience research incorporates elements of Neuropathology and Microglia. In Epileptogenesis, Annamaria Vezzani works on issues like Electroencephalography, which are connected to Biomarker. Her work in Inflammation addresses subjects such as Immunity, which are connected to disciplines such as Intensive care medicine.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Neuromodulatory properties of inflammatory cytokines and their impact on neuronal excitability. (274 citations)
  • Infections, inflammation and epilepsy (183 citations)
  • Advances in the development of biomarkers for epilepsy (159 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Neuron

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Epilepsy, Neuroscience, Epileptogenesis, Neuroinflammation and Status epilepticus. Her Epilepsy study combines topics in areas such as Biomarker, Disease and Immunology. Her Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Inflammation, Proinflammatory cytokine, Neuropathology and Immune system.

Her studies in Epileptogenesis integrate themes in fields like Inflammatory molecules, Central nervous system and Pharmacology. Her Neuroinflammation study incorporates themes from Anticonvulsant, Carbamazepine, Interleukin 1 receptor, type I and TLR4. Her Status epilepticus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Anesthesia, Etiology and Traumatic brain injury.
