Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Hippocampus

Cyril Herry mostly deals with Amygdala, Neuroscience, Fear processing in the brain, Extinction and Fear conditioning. The concepts of his Amygdala study are interwoven with issues in Cognitive psychology, Sensory system and Premovement neuronal activity. All of his Neuroscience and Optogenetics and Nerve net investigations are sub-components of the entire Neuroscience study.

The various areas that Cyril Herry examines in his Extinction study include Memoria and Prefrontal cortex. In his work, Neuroplasticity and Neuron is strongly intertwined with Hippocampus, which is a subfield of Prefrontal cortex. Cyril Herry focuses mostly in the field of Fear conditioning, narrowing it down to topics relating to Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and, in certain cases, Classical conditioning.

His most cited work include:

  • Switching on and off fear by distinct neuronal circuits (739 citations)
  • Amygdala inhibitory circuits and the control of fear memory. (705 citations)
  • Encoding of conditioned fear in central amygdala inhibitory circuits (640 citations)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Amygdala, Prefrontal cortex, Fear conditioning and Fear processing in the brain. His work on Optogenetics, Extinction and Sensory system as part of general Neuroscience research is frequently linked to Context, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Amygdala research includes themes of Memory consolidation, Biological neural network, Parvalbumin and Premovement neuronal activity.

His Prefrontal cortex research includes elements of Expression, Generalization, Electrophysiology and Excitatory postsynaptic potential. His Fear conditioning research incorporates elements of Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Long-term potentiation, Neuronal circuits, Associative learning and Traumatic memories. His study focuses on the intersection of Fear processing in the brain and fields such as Local field potential with connections in the field of Sensory processing and Cognition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (106.90%)
  • Amygdala (56.90%)
  • Prefrontal cortex (48.28%)

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

  • Neuroscience (106.90%)
  • Optogenetics (53.45%)
  • Prefrontal cortex (48.28%)

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

Cyril Herry spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Optogenetics, Prefrontal cortex, Amygdala and Olfactory bulb. In general Neuroscience, his work in Periaqueductal grey and Spatial learning is often linked to Chemistry, Context and Computer science linking many areas of study. His Context study overlaps with Periaqueductal gray, Sensory system, Generalization, Neuronal population and Contextual fear.

His studies in Prefrontal cortex integrate themes in fields like Freezing behavior, Biological neural network, Expression and Neural coding. He combines subjects such as Extended amygdala, Nucleus accumbens, Dopamine receptor D2, Nucleus and Knockout mouse with his study of Amygdala. The Olfactory bulb study combines topics in areas such as Dissociation and Emotional behavior.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Prefrontal-Periaqueductal Gray-Projecting Neurons Mediate Context Fear Discrimination. (60 citations)
  • Prefrontal-Periaqueductal Gray-Projecting Neurons Mediate Context Fear Discrimination. (60 citations)
  • Neuronal coding mechanisms mediating fear behavior (10 citations)
