Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Neuroscience

Boris B. Gorzalka mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Endocannabinoid system, Neuroscience and Cannabinoid receptor. His Internal medicine study typically links adjacent topics like Pharmacology. His Endocrinology research includes elements of Social aggression and AM251.

He combines subjects such as Chronic stress, Antidepressant, Anandamide, Hippocampus and Corticosterone with his study of Endocannabinoid system. His research in Neuroscience intersects with topics in Animal model and Naloxone. As a part of the same scientific family, Boris B. Gorzalka mostly works in the field of Cannabinoid receptor, focusing on Anxiolytic and, on occasion, Elevated plus maze.

His most cited work include:

  • Downregulation of Endocannabinoid Signaling in the Hippocampus Following Chronic Unpredictable Stress (276 citations)
  • Neurobiology of chronic mild stress: parallels to major depression. (250 citations)
  • Opioids and sexual behavior. (246 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Developmental psychology, Endocannabinoid system and Cannabinoid receptor. Boris B. Gorzalka is interested in Corticosterone, which is a field of Endocrinology. His Developmental psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Human sexuality, Sexual attraction, Sexual desire, Sexual arousal and Sexual dysfunction.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hippocampus, Chronic stress, Neuroscience, Prefrontal cortex and Anandamide. His Cannabinoid receptor research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Behavioural despair test and Cannabinoid. The study incorporates disciplines such as Dentate gyrus, Depolarization-induced suppression of inhibition and Pharmacology in addition to Cannabinoid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Endocrinology (52.08%)
  • Internal medicine (52.08%)
  • Developmental psychology (20.31%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Developmental psychology (20.31%)
  • Endocannabinoid system (19.79%)
  • Human sexuality (13.54%)

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

Boris B. Gorzalka spends much of his time researching Developmental psychology, Endocannabinoid system, Human sexuality, Clinical psychology and Internal medicine. Boris B. Gorzalka has researched Developmental psychology in several fields, including Sexual attraction, Sexual dysfunction, Acculturation and Sexual desire. His Endocannabinoid system research includes themes of Chronic stress, Neuroscience, Depression, Prefrontal cortex and Cannabinoid receptor.

His Human sexuality research incorporates themes from Eating disorders, Disordered eating, Cognition and Attachment theory. The Clinical psychology study combines topics in areas such as Anxiety, Cognitive distraction and Sexual coercion. Much of his study explores Internal medicine relationship to Endocrinology.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Neurobiology of chronic mild stress: parallels to major depression. (250 citations)
  • Recruitment of prefrontal cortical endocannabinoid signaling by glucocorticoids contributes to termination of the stress response. (229 citations)
  • Acute restraint stress enhances hippocampal endocannabinoid function via glucocorticoid receptor activation (94 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Neuroscience

His main research concerns Endocannabinoid system, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Prefrontal cortex and Neuroscience. His study in Endocannabinoid system is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Neurogenesis, Cognition, Chronic stress and Pharmacology. His studies in Prefrontal cortex integrate themes in fields like Anandamide, Cannabinoid receptor, Hippocampus, Receptor antagonist and Amygdala.

His Cannabinoid receptor research includes elements of Raphe nuclei and Neurotransmission. His work on Depression, Mild stress and Stressor as part of general Neuroscience study is frequently linked to Neurochemistry, bridging the gap between disciplines. His gamma-Aminobutyric acid study incorporates themes from Hippocampal formation, Cannabinoid, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Glucocorticoid.
