His research integrates issues of Mediodorsal thalamus, Pavlovian-instrumental transfer and Excitatory postsynaptic potential in his study of Developmental psychology.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Operant conditioning and Putamen.
His most cited work include:
- Goal-directed instrumental action: Contingency and incentive learning and their cortical substrates (1120 citations)
- Human and rodent homologies in action control: corticostriatal determinants of goal-directed and habitual action (1118 citations)
- The Role of the Dorsal Striatum in Reward and Decision-Making (924 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Bernard W. Balleine spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Developmental psychology, Striatum and Extinction.
In general Neuroscience study, his work on Nucleus accumbens, Prefrontal cortex, Basal ganglia and Amygdala often relates to the realm of Action selection, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
His Nucleus accumbens study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Naltrindole, Ventral striatum and Opioid.
Bernard W. Balleine has researched Cognitive psychology in several fields, including Incentive, Classical conditioning, Social psychology and Outcome.
The concepts of his Striatum study are interwoven with issues in Glutamatergic, Dorsum and Cholinergic.
His work in Extinction tackles topics such as Reinforcement which are related to areas like Stimulus and Sensory system.
He most often published in these fields:
- Neuroscience (62.25%)
- Cognitive psychology (26.91%)
- Developmental psychology (17.67%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Neuroscience (62.25%)
- Cognitive psychology (26.91%)
- Striatum (20.48%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Striatum, Task and Nucleus accumbens.
Neuroscience is closely attributed to Dorsum in his study.
His research in Cognitive psychology intersects with topics in Visual perception, Reinforcement and Reinforcement learning.
Volition, Control and Sensory system is closely connected to Adaptive behavior in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Reinforcement.
His study on Striatum is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Antecedent.
Bernard W. Balleine has included themes like Orbitofrontal cortex and Cholinergic in his Nucleus accumbens study.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Prefrontal Corticostriatal Disconnection Blocks the Acquisition of Goal-Directed Action (48 citations)
- The bilateral prefronto-striatal pathway is necessary for learning new goal-directed actions (36 citations)
- The bilateral prefronto-striatal pathway is necessary for learning new goal-directed actions (36 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Neuroscience
- Internal medicine
- Cognition
Bernard W. Balleine mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Striatum, Dorsum, Cognitive psychology and Reinforcement.
His is doing research in Dorsomedial striatum, Nucleus accumbens, Infralimbic cortex, Raclopride and Dopamine receptor D2, both of which are found in Neuroscience.
His research in Nucleus accumbens intersects with topics in Retrograde tracing, Ventral tegmental area and Basolateral amygdala.
The Striatum study combines topics in areas such as Glutamate receptor, Glutamatergic, Methamphetamine and Antecedent.
Within one scientific family, Bernard W. Balleine focuses on topics pertaining to Reinforcement learning under Cognitive psychology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Categorization.
His Reinforcement study incorporates themes from Schizophrenia and Outcome.
