Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Schizophrenia, Endocrinology and Psychosis. Her work deals with themes such as Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurotrophin and Brain size, which intersect with Neuroscience. Her study looks at the intersection of Internal medicine and topics like Protein subunit with Receptor complex.

Her Schizophrenia study combines topics in areas such as Psychopharmacology and Clinical psychology. Her work carried out in the field of Endocrinology brings together such families of science as Receptor, Prefrontal cortex, Gene expression and White matter. Her Psychosis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Major depressive disorder, Genetics, Bipolar disorder and Reelin.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genome-wide association study identifies 30 loci associated with bipolar disorder (518 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study identifies 30 loci associated with bipolar disorder (518 citations)
  • Reduced brain-derived neurotrophic factor in prefrontal cortex of patients with schizophrenia (443 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Internal medicine, Schizophrenia, Endocrinology, Neuroscience and Prefrontal cortex. Her Schizophrenia study incorporates themes from Bipolar disorder, Inflammation, Psychosis and Cognition. She interconnects Major depressive disorder, Genetics and Genome-wide association study in the investigation of issues within Bipolar disorder.

Her study in Endocrinology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Receptor, Neuregulin 1, Gene expression and Gene isoform. The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Schizophrenia, White matter and Psychopharmacology. Her Prefrontal cortex study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Messenger RNA and Human brain.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (83.48%)
  • Schizophrenia (75.11%)
  • Endocrinology (72.62%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Schizophrenia (75.11%)
  • Internal medicine (83.48%)
  • Endocrinology (72.62%)

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

Cynthia Shannon Weickert spends much of her time researching Schizophrenia, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Prefrontal cortex and Inflammation. Her Schizophrenia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cytokine, Psychosis, Cognition, Neuroimaging and Neurogenesis. She combines subjects such as Complement inhibitor and Frontal lobe with her study of Internal medicine.

Her work in the fields of Endocrinology, such as Hippocampal formation, Hippocampus and Blood–brain barrier, overlaps with other areas such as Occludin. Her Prefrontal cortex research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transcriptome, Glycosylation and Genomics. The subject of her Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex research is within the realm of Neuroscience.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Dysregulation of kynurenine metabolism is related to proinflammatory cytokines, attention, and prefrontal cortex volume in schizophrenia (58 citations)
  • Dysregulation of kynurenine metabolism is related to proinflammatory cytokines, attention, and prefrontal cortex volume in schizophrenia (58 citations)
  • Increased macrophages and changed brain endothelial cell gene expression in the frontal cortex of people with schizophrenia displaying inflammation. (52 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • DNA

Her primary areas of investigation include Schizophrenia, Prefrontal cortex, Inflammation, Microglia and Immune system. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cognition, Neuroimaging, Clinical psychology, Brain size and Cognitive reserve. Her Clinical psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Psychosis, Neglect, Family history and Functional ability.

Cynthia Shannon Weickert has included themes like Proteome, Internal medicine, Computational biology and Endocrinology in her Prefrontal cortex study. Her Internal medicine research includes themes of Kynurenine pathway and Frontal lobe. Her Endocrinology research integrates issues from Cytokine, Kynurenic acid and Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.
