What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Neuroscience, Striatum, Basal ganglia, Substantia nigra and Striosome are his primary areas of study.
In his research on the topic of Neuroscience, Neuroscience research and Projection is strongly related with Bioinformatics.
His study looks at the relationship between Basal ganglia and topics such as Anatomy, which overlap with Ventral striatum and Midbrain.
The concepts of his Substantia nigra study are interwoven with issues in Dynorphin and Medium spiny neuron.
His studies in Striosome integrate themes in fields like Nigrostriatal pathway and Neurochemical.
He combines subjects such as Parvalbumin and Neuron with his study of Internal medicine.
His most cited work include:
- D1 and D2 dopamine receptor-regulated gene expression of striatonigral and striatopallidal neurons (2527 citations)
- A mesoscale connectome of the mouse brain (1338 citations)
- The neostriatal mosaic: multiple levels of compartmental organization. (1186 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Striatum, Basal ganglia, Dopamine and Dopamine receptor.
The Neuroscience study which covers Anatomy that intersects with Vibratome.
Striatum and Substantia nigra are commonly linked in his work.
As a part of the same scientific family, Charles R. Gerfen mostly works in the field of Substantia nigra, focusing on Striosome and, on occasion, Nigrostriatal pathway.
His Basal ganglia study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cerebral cortex, Caudate nucleus and Putamen.
His research integrates issues of Agonist and Dopamine receptor D2 in his study of Dopamine receptor.
He most often published in these fields:
- Neuroscience (67.69%)
- Striatum (40.00%)
- Basal ganglia (30.00%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Neuroscience (67.69%)
- Motor cortex (10.77%)
- Basal ganglia (30.00%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Charles R. Gerfen focuses on Neuroscience, Motor cortex, Basal ganglia, Biological neural network and Neuron.
He integrates Neuroscience with Glutamatergic in his study.
His study in Motor cortex is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pyramidal tracts and Brainstem.
His study looks at the intersection of Basal ganglia and topics like Striatum with Stereotypy.
His work carried out in the field of Neuron brings together such families of science as Parvalbumin and Electrophysiology.
His Globus pallidus research incorporates themes from Substantia nigra, Indirect pathway of movement and Cerebral cortex.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Maintenance of persistent activity in a frontal thalamocortical loop (251 citations)
- Distinct descending motor cortex pathways and their roles in movement (142 citations)
- Hierarchical organization of cortical and thalamic connectivity. (118 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Charles R. Gerfen mostly deals with Neuroscience, Motor cortex, Basal ganglia, Thalamus and Sensory system.
His study in Pyramidal tracts, Biological neural network, Neuron, Motor control and Cortical circuits falls within the category of Neuroscience.
He performs multidisciplinary study in Basal ganglia and Population in his work.
His Thalamus research integrates issues from Projection neuron, Cortical network, Cre recombinase and Axon.
His studies deal with areas such as Striatum, Cerebral cortex, Motor area, Premovement neuronal activity and Neuronal circuits as well as Sensory system.
His studies examine the connections between Striatum and genetics, as well as such issues in Visual field, with regards to Optogenetics.
