Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Electroencephalography

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Epilepsy, Electroencephalography, Vigilance and Wakefulness. His study on Thalamus, Thalamic reticular nucleus and Cerebral cortex is often connected to Genetic model as part of broader study in Neuroscience. The Spike-wave discharges research Anton M.L. Coenen does as part of his general Epilepsy study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Inbred strain, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His research investigates the connection between Electroencephalography and topics such as Anticonvulsant that intersect with problems in Animal model, Beta band and Pharmacology. His Vigilance study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Arousal, Social psychology and Slow-wave sleep, Sleep spindle. His Wakefulness research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Electrocorticography, Endocrinology and Petit Mal Epilepsy.

His most cited work include:

  • Cortical Focus Drives Widespread Corticothalamic Networks during Spontaneous Absence Seizures in Rats (778 citations)
  • Efficacy of Neurofeedback Treatment in ADHD: The Effects on Inattention, Impulsivity and Hyperactivity: A Meta-Analysis (559 citations)
  • Genetic animal models for absence epilepsy: a review of the WAG/Rij strain of rats. (379 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Electroencephalography, Epilepsy, Vigilance and Anesthesia. His is involved in several facets of Neuroscience study, as is seen by his studies on Wakefulness, Stimulus, Cortex, Thalamus and Electrophysiology. Anton M.L. Coenen works mostly in the field of Electroencephalography, limiting it down to concerns involving Audiology and, occasionally, Sleep in non-human animals.

His study in the field of Anticonvulsant is also linked to topics like Genetic model. His studies in Vigilance integrate themes in fields like Developmental psychology, Alertness, Mental effort and Circadian rhythm. His work in the fields of Anesthesia, such as Unconsciousness, intersects with other areas such as Stunning.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (32.88%)
  • Electroencephalography (28.77%)
  • Epilepsy (20.55%)

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

  • Sleep in non-human animals (10.96%)
  • Physical therapy (7.53%)
  • Psychoanalysis (4.11%)

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

Anton M.L. Coenen mainly investigates Sleep in non-human animals, Physical therapy, Psychoanalysis, Schizophrenia and Depression. His Sleep in non-human animals research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Morning, Athletes, Dream and Circadian rhythm. His work on Elite athletes and Training load as part of his general Physical therapy study is frequently connected to Sleep, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

The various areas that Anton M.L. Coenen examines in his Psychoanalysis study include Activation-synthesis hypothesis, Humanism and Eye movement. His Physical medicine and rehabilitation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sleep Stages and Electroencephalography. Epilepsy is closely connected to Endocrinology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Glucocorticoid receptor.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Self-reported sleep quantity, quality and sleep hygiene in elite athletes. (40 citations)
  • Adolf Beck: A Forgotten Pioneer in Electroencephalography (26 citations)
  • Train hard, sleep well? Perceived training load, sleep quantity and sleep stage distribution in elite level athletes (21 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry

His primary areas of investigation include Sleep in non-human animals, Neuroscience, Electroencephalography, Athletes and Sleep onset. His Sleep in non-human animals research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Health related quality of life, Quality of life and Substance dependence, Substance use. His Neuroscience study frequently involves adjacent topics like Pathophysiology.

His studies deal with areas such as Evoked potential, Sleep quantity and Sleep Stages as well as Electroencephalography. His work in Athletes addresses issues such as Morning, which are connected to fields such as Physical therapy. His Physical therapy study incorporates themes from Clinical study design, Memory span, Depression and Mood.
