Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Ecology
  • Neuron

Her primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Anatomy, Allometry and Receptive field. Her work on Dasyprocta azarae expands to the thematically related Neuroscience. As part of the same scientific family, Barbara L. Finlay usually focuses on Neurogenesis, concentrating on Evolutionary biology and intersecting with Insectivora, Medulla and Evolution of the brain.

The various areas that Barbara L. Finlay examines in her Anatomy study include Cerebral cortex, Subplate, Guidepost cells and Thalamus. Her Allometry research includes elements of Zoology and Limbic system. Her work deals with themes such as Visual field, Striate cortex and Communication, which intersect with Receptive field.

Her most cited work include:

  • Translating developmental time across mammalian species. (954 citations)
  • Linked regularities in the development and evolution of mammalian brains (922 citations)
  • Extrapolating brain development from experimental species to humans. (593 citations)

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

Barbara L. Finlay mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Retina, Anatomy, Cortex and Superior colliculus. Her study in Neocortex, Neurogenesis, Cerebral cortex, Visual cortex and Thalamus are all subfields of Neuroscience. Her study in Neurogenesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Limbic system and Primate.

As a part of the same scientific family, Barbara L. Finlay mostly works in the field of Retina, focusing on Retinal and, on occasion, Ganglion. Her Superior colliculus study combines topics in areas such as Receptive field, Tectum, Optic tract, Visual field and Hamster. Her Receptive field study incorporates themes from Striate cortex, Electrophysiology and Communication.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (61.07%)
  • Retina (22.82%)
  • Anatomy (22.15%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (61.07%)
  • Neocortex (14.09%)
  • Cortex (16.78%)

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

Barbara L. Finlay focuses on Neuroscience, Neocortex, Cortex, Neurogenesis and Primate. Much of her study explores Neuroscience relationship to Coevolution. Barbara L. Finlay has researched Neocortex in several fields, including Artificial neural network, Neuroanatomical tracing and Cortical surface.

Her Cortex research integrates issues from Cognitive science and Anthropocentrism. Her Cerebral cortex research incorporates elements of Naked mole-rat, Retina and Synaptogenesis. Her Neuron study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cortical column and Anatomy.

Between 2014 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Systematic, Cross-Cortex Variation in Neuron Numbers in Rodents and Primates (104 citations)
  • Developmental mechanisms channeling cortical evolution (82 citations)
  • Comparing Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis Across Species: Translating Time to Predict the Tempo in Humans. (28 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Ecology
  • Neuron

Her main research concerns Neuroscience, Cortex, Cerebral cortex, Neurogenesis and Synaptogenesis. Her Neuroscience study focuses mostly on Macaque and Neocortex. Her research integrates issues of Artificial neural network and Neuroanatomical tracing in her study of Macaque.

Within one scientific family, Barbara L. Finlay focuses on topics pertaining to Neuron under Cortex, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Stereology and Dasyprocta azarae. Her Neurogenesis study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Primate. The Synaptogenesis study combines topics in areas such as Rodent, Ganglionic eminence and Thalamus.
