Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry

Daphna Joel mostly deals with Neuroscience, Basal ganglia, Striatum, Developmental psychology and Reinforcement learning. Her work on Prefrontal cortex and Anterior cingulate cortex as part of general Neuroscience research is often related to Wisconsin Card Sorting Test, thus linking different fields of science. Her Basal ganglia research includes themes of Associative learning, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Cognition and Disinhibition.

Her studies in Striatum integrate themes in fields like Nucleus accumbens, Central nervous system, Dopaminergic and Subthalamic nucleus. Her work in the fields of Developmental research overlaps with other areas such as Social activism. Her research in Reinforcement learning intersects with topics in Artificial neural network, Reinforcement and Computational model.

Her most cited work include:

  • Tonic dopamine: opportunity costs and the control of response vigor. (759 citations)
  • The connections of the dopaminergic system with the striatum in rats and primates: An analysis with respect to the functional and compartmental organization of the striatum (512 citations)
  • The organization of the basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits-open interconnected rather than closed segregated (368 citations)

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

Neuroscience, Developmental psychology, Basal ganglia, Striatum and Internal medicine are her primary areas of study. Her research integrates issues of Lesion, Compulsive behavior and Subthalamic nucleus in her study of Neuroscience. Her Developmental psychology study combines topics in areas such as Sex characteristics, Human brain and Sexual dimorphism.

Her Basal ganglia study incorporates themes from Parkinson's disease and Thalamus. Her Striatum study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Putamen and Reinforcement learning. Her work focuses on many connections between Internal medicine and other disciplines, such as Endocrinology, that overlap with her field of interest in Serotonin, Agonist and Receptor.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (41.18%)
  • Developmental psychology (20.59%)
  • Basal ganglia (16.67%)

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

  • Social psychology (10.78%)
  • Human brain (7.84%)
  • Gender identity (3.92%)

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

Daphna Joel focuses on Social psychology, Human brain, Gender identity, Clinical psychology and Grading. Her work on Feeling, Personality and Set as part of general Social psychology study is frequently linked to Essentialism, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cognitive psychology, Sex related and Physiology.

When carried out as part of a general Clinical psychology research project, her work on Coping is frequently linked to work in Population, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. While working on this project, Daphna Joel studies both Descriptive research and Developmental psychology. Her Developmental psychology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Gender binary.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The future of sex and gender in psychology: Five challenges to the gender binary. (160 citations)
  • Analysis of Human Brain Structure Reveals that the Brain "Types" Typical of Males Are Also Typical of Females, and Vice Versa. (54 citations)
  • The Complex Relationships between Sex and the Brain (12 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry

Daphna Joel mainly investigates Human sexuality, Gender identity, Sample, Human brain and Developmental psychology. Her Human sexuality research spans across into areas like Clinical psychology, Exploratory research, Feeling, Sexual orientation and Social psychology. Gender identity is frequently linked to Identity in her study.

Her Human brain study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Evolutionary biology. Her work on Developmental research as part of general Developmental psychology research is frequently linked to Social activism, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
