What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Neuroscience
- Internal medicine
- Endocrinology
Her scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Orbitofrontal cortex, Insula, Amygdala and Taste.
Brain mapping, Sensory system and Central nervous system are subfields of Neuroscience in which her conducts study.
Dana M. Small has included themes like Overeating and Striatum in her Brain mapping study.
Her work deals with themes such as Cognitive psychology, Somatosensory system, Cingulate cortex, Perception and Operculum, which intersect with Orbitofrontal cortex.
Her work is dedicated to discovering how Insula, Cortex are connected with Parahippocampal gyrus and other disciplines.
Dana M. Small works mostly in the field of Taste, limiting it down to topics relating to Insular cortex and, in certain cases, Sensory cortex, Aftertaste and Feeding behavior, as a part of the same area of interest.
Her most cited work include:
- Changes in brain activity related to eating chocolate: from pleasure to aversion. (957 citations)
- Dissociation of neural representation of intensity and affective valuation in human gustation. (653 citations)
- Relation Between Obesity and Blunted Striatal Response to Food Is Moderated by TaqIA A1 Allele (636 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Dana M. Small spends much of her time researching Neuroscience, Taste, Orbitofrontal cortex, Internal medicine and Obesity.
Insula, Sensory system, Cortex, Dopamine and Amygdala are among the areas of Neuroscience where the researcher is concentrating her efforts.
Her research investigates the connection between Amygdala and topics such as Brain mapping that intersect with issues in Neuroimaging.
Her Taste research integrates issues from Stimulus, Insular cortex, Perception and Audiology.
Her research integrates issues of Cognitive psychology, Cingulate cortex, Operculum, Multisensory integration and Olfaction in her study of Orbitofrontal cortex.
As a part of the same scientific study, Dana M. Small usually deals with the Internal medicine, concentrating on Endocrinology and frequently concerns with Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Meal and Ghrelin.
She most often published in these fields:
- Neuroscience (43.26%)
- Taste (24.82%)
- Orbitofrontal cortex (19.86%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Obesity (21.28%)
- Neuroscience (43.26%)
- Carbohydrate (10.64%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Dana M. Small mainly investigates Obesity, Neuroscience, Carbohydrate, Internal medicine and Carbohydrate metabolism.
The Obesity study combines topics in areas such as Diabetes mellitus, Type 2 diabetes, Body mass index and Cognition.
Dana M. Small undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Neuroscience and Anosmia in her work.
Her Carbohydrate research focuses on Sucralose and how it relates to Sugar.
Her study looks at the relationship between Internal medicine and fields such as Endocrinology, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
She works mostly in the field of Cortex, limiting it down to concerns involving Ventromedial prefrontal cortex and, occasionally, Amygdala and Orbitofrontal cortex.
Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Processed foods and food reward (36 citations)
- Rethinking Food Reward (35 citations)
- Short-Term Consumption of Sucralose with, but Not without, Carbohydrate Impairs Neural and Metabolic Sensitivity to Sugar in Humans. (28 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Neuroscience
- Cognition
Dana M. Small focuses on Obesity, Cognition, Dopamine, Neuroscience and Taste.
She works mostly in the field of Obesity, limiting it down to topics relating to Type 2 diabetes and, in certain cases, Sucralose, Carbohydrate metabolism and Internal medicine.
Her work carried out in the field of Cognition brings together such families of science as Bioinformatics, Endogeny, Insulin, Food intake and Metabolism.
Dana M. Small has researched Dopamine in several fields, including Receptor, Addiction, Food addiction and Drug.
Her study in Affect, Raclopride and Striatum is carried out as part of her Neuroscience studies.
Her work deals with themes such as Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology, Carbohydrate, Gut–brain axis and Sugar, which intersect with Taste.
