Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognition

Christoph Nissen focuses on Polysomnography, Primary Insomnia, Insomnia, Psychiatry and Non-rapid eye movement sleep. Christoph Nissen interconnects Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Sleep disorder and Memory consolidation in the investigation of issues within Polysomnography. His Primary Insomnia research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Anesthesia, Procedural memory and Audiology.

His research integrates issues of Cognitive behavioral therapy, Arousal and Physical therapy in his study of Insomnia. His Psychiatry research incorporates elements of Meta-analysis, Clinical psychology and Confidence interval. His research investigates the connection between Non-rapid eye movement sleep and topics such as Slow-wave sleep that intersect with issues in Eye movement.

His most cited work include:

  • Insomnia as a predictor of depression: A meta-analytic evaluation of longitudinal epidemiological studies. (1187 citations)
  • The hyperarousal model of insomnia: A review of the concept and its evidence (811 citations)
  • European guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of insomnia (435 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Sleep in non-human animals, Psychiatry, Neuroscience, Insomnia and Polysomnography. His biological study deals with issues like Arousal, which deal with fields such as Dysfunctional family. His study in the fields of Depression and Cognition under the domain of Psychiatry overlaps with other disciplines such as Population.

His Neuroscience research incorporates themes from Synaptic plasticity and Long-term potentiation. His research brings together the fields of Psychological intervention and Insomnia. His Polysomnography research integrates issues from Anesthesia, Audiology, Sleep disorder, Primary Insomnia and Procedural memory.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Sleep in non-human animals (27.95%)
  • Psychiatry (24.45%)
  • Neuroscience (27.07%)

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

  • Neuroscience (27.07%)
  • Insomnia (20.96%)
  • Sleep in non-human animals (27.95%)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Insomnia, Sleep in non-human animals, Psychiatry and Electroencephalography. His work in Neuroscience addresses subjects such as Synaptic plasticity, which are connected to disciplines such as Visual cortex. His Insomnia study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Intervention, Stroke, Mental health and Depression.

His studies examine the connections between Sleep in non-human animals and genetics, as well as such issues in Psychological intervention, with regards to Neglect. Many of his research projects under Psychiatry are closely connected to Sleep and Scale with Sleep and Scale, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Electroencephalography study also includes fields such as

  • Long-term potentiation together with Major depressive disorder, Antidepressant and Sleep deprivation,
  • Transcranial direct-current stimulation, which have a strong connection to Arousal, Neurophysiology and Young adult.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sleep, insomnia, and depression (48 citations)
  • The European Academy for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia: An initiative of the European Insomnia Network to promote implementation and dissemination of treatment. (26 citations)
  • Reference Data for Polysomnography-Measured and Subjective Sleep in Healthy Adults (21 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognition

Christoph Nissen spends much of his time researching Insomnia, Audiology, Sleep in non-human animals, Psychiatry and Cognition. He has researched Insomnia in several fields, including Benzodiazepine, Quality of life, Sleep disorder and Cognitive behavioral therapy, Depression. The various areas that he examines in his Audiology study include Primary Insomnia, Stroop effect, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Neuroimaging and Morris water navigation task.

Christoph Nissen works in the field of Sleep in non-human animals, focusing on Polysomnography in particular. His work on Specialty is typically connected to Empirical research as part of general Psychiatry study, connecting several disciplines of science. His work investigates the relationship between Cognition and topics such as Stimulation that intersect with problems in Neuroplasticity.
