Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Leptin, Adipose tissue and Receptor are his primary areas of study. As part of his studies on Endocrinology, Bradford B. Lowell often connects relevant areas like Transgene. His study in Insulin, Adipocyte, Insulin resistance, Melanocortin and Arcuate nucleus falls under the purview of Internal medicine.

Bradford B. Lowell focuses mostly in the field of Leptin, narrowing it down to topics relating to Melanin-concentrating hormone receptor and, in certain cases, Glucose tolerance test, Lateral hypothalamus and Orexigenic. His work in Adipose tissue addresses issues such as Genetically modified mouse, which are connected to fields such as Beta-1 adrenergic receptor, Cyclase activity, Beta-3 adrenergic receptor, Beta and Regeneration. His Receptor research includes elements of Dentate gyrus and Hormone.

His most cited work include:

  • Mechanisms Controlling Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Respiration through the Thermogenic Coactivator PGC-1 (3087 citations)
  • Role of leptin in the neuroendocrine response to fasting (2641 citations)
  • Transcriptional co-activator PGC-1α drives the formation of slow-twitch muscle fibres (2014 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Neuroscience, Hypothalamus and Receptor. His work in Leptin, Adipose tissue, Homeostasis, Insulin and Glucose homeostasis is related to Endocrinology. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transgene and Neuron.

His Neuroscience study frequently links to related topics such as Glutamatergic. The various areas that Bradford B. Lowell examines in his Hypothalamus study include Neuropeptide, Melanocortin and Nucleus. His Biochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Cell biology and Skeletal muscle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Endocrinology (66.53%)
  • Internal medicine (66.53%)
  • Neuroscience (38.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (38.71%)
  • Internal medicine (66.53%)
  • Endocrinology (66.53%)

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

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus and Neuron. His study focuses on the intersection of Neuroscience and fields such as Glutamatergic with connections in the field of Vasodilation, Vasoconstriction and Reflex. Internal medicine connects with themes related to Nucleus in his study.

His Hypothalamus research incorporates elements of Receptor, Postsynaptic potential, Biological neural network and Optogenetics. His study looks at the relationship between Receptor and fields such as Obesity, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Arcuate nucleus, Gene expression profiling, Orexigenic, Molecular neuroscience and Cell type.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A molecular census of arcuate hypothalamus and median eminence cell types (345 citations)
  • A molecular census of arcuate hypothalamus and median eminence cell types (345 citations)
  • Toward a Wiring Diagram Understanding of Appetite Control. (190 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Hypothalamus, Arcuate nucleus, Perception and Neuron. His study on Lateral parabrachial nucleus, Median eminence and Insular cortex is often connected to Emerging technologies and Spinal circuits as part of broader study in Neuroscience. The concepts of his Hypothalamus study are interwoven with issues in Obesity, Receptor, Melanocortin, Hindbrain and Biological neural network.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Appetite regulation, Appetite, Appetite control and Cognition in addition to Arcuate nucleus. His Perception study incorporates themes from Cerebral cortex, Basolateral amygdala, Sensory cue, Neuroimaging and Satiety Response. His Neuron research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Tanycyte, Gene expression profiling, Orexigenic, Molecular neuroscience and Cell type.
