Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Anatomy, Primate, Neocortex and Prefrontal cortex. Many of his studies on Neuroscience apply to Primary motor cortex as well. The concepts of his Anatomy study are interwoven with issues in Evolutionary biology, Brain morphometry and Clade.

In his study, Human evolution, Evolution of mammals and Brain Mass is inextricably linked to Brain size, which falls within the broad field of Primate. His work deals with themes such as Lineage, Bioinformatics, Gene expression profiling, Human brain and Visual cortex, which intersect with Neocortex. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Suborder Mysticeti, Cingulate cortex, Grampus griseus and Bottlenose dolphin.

His most cited work include:

  • New insights into the classification and nomenclature of cortical GABAergic interneurons (520 citations)
  • Prolonged myelination in human neocortical evolution (344 citations)
  • Evolution of increased glia-neuron ratios in the human frontal cortex. (244 citations)

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

Chet C. Sherwood focuses on Neuroscience, Neocortex, Anatomy, Evolutionary biology and Human brain. His research combines Primary motor cortex and Neuroscience. The various areas that he examines in his Neocortex study include Dendritic spine, Synapse, Visual cortex and Dendrite.

His study on Corpus callosum is often connected to Context as part of broader study in Anatomy. His Human brain study incorporates themes from Cognition, Gene and Cell type. His Primate course of study focuses on Brain size and Brain Mass and Zoology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (49.00%)
  • Neocortex (21.12%)
  • Anatomy (21.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (19.52%)
  • Neuroscience (49.00%)
  • Human brain (18.33%)

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

Chet C. Sherwood mostly deals with Evolutionary biology, Neuroscience, Human brain, Primate and Troglodytes. His Evolutionary biology research includes themes of Senescence, Gene expression, Brain size and Bonobo. Neuroscience is often connected to Primary motor cortex in his work.

His Human brain study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cerebral cortex, Neuron, Atrophy and Macaque. His Primate research incorporates elements of Brain morphometry and Cognition, Cognitive test, Social cognition. His Soma research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Stereology and Anatomy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A neurochemical hypothesis for the origin of hominids (25 citations)
  • A cerebellar substrate for cognition evolved multiple times independently in mammals (23 citations)
  • Comparative morphology of gigantopyramidal neurons in primary motor cortex across mammals (18 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Evolutionary biology, Brain size, Human brain, Neuroscience and Cerebral cortex. The Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Mammal, Troglodytes and Bonobo. His Brain size research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of White matter, Visual cortex, Brain Mass and Neuron.

His study in Human brain is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Parvalbumin and Cognition. His study in Neuroscience focuses on Neocortex and Neurochemical. His Cerebral cortex research integrates issues from Biological system and Cortical volume.
