Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Neuroscience, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Depolarization, Biophysics and Excitatory postsynaptic potential are his primary areas of study. His is doing research in Electrophysiology, Hyperpolarization, Membrane potential, Bursting and Reversal potential, both of which are found in Neuroscience. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cholinergic, Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, Somatosensory system and Postsynaptic potential.

His study in Depolarization is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Orthodromic, Epileptogenesis, Acetylcholine and Intracellular. His Biophysics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Extracellular, Extracellular potassium and Cortex. His Excitatory postsynaptic potential research integrates issues from Neocortex, Neurotransmission, Anatomy, Bicuculline and GABAB receptor.

His most cited work include:

  • Comparative electrophysiology of pyramidal and sparsely spiny stellate neurons of the neocortex. (1691 citations)
  • Electrophysiological properties of neocortical neurons in vitro (802 citations)
  • A calcium-activated hyperpolarization follows repetitive firing in hippocampal neurons. (517 citations)

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

David A. Prince spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Epileptogenesis and Biophysics. His work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Depolarization and Neurotransmission. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential study frequently links to other fields, such as Postsynaptic potential.

His research integrates issues of Somatosensory system and Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor in his study of Excitatory postsynaptic potential. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ictal, Glutamate receptor and Cortex in addition to Epileptogenesis. His studies deal with areas such as Bursting, Acetylcholine, Reversal potential and Intracellular as well as Biophysics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (74.43%)
  • Inhibitory postsynaptic potential (33.21%)
  • Excitatory postsynaptic potential (27.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (74.43%)
  • Epileptogenesis (25.57%)
  • Inhibitory postsynaptic potential (33.21%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Epileptogenesis, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Neocortex. His work in Neuroscience covers topics such as Neurotransmission which are related to areas like Cortex. His Epileptogenesis study also includes fields such as

  • Calcium channel, which have a strong connection to Voltage-dependent calcium channel,
  • Pathology, which have a strong connection to Dendrite and Dendritic spine.

His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dentate gyrus, Hippocampal formation, Anatomy, Neuroplasticity and Parvalbumin. His Excitatory postsynaptic potential research incorporates themes from Synapse and Electrophysiology. His Neocortex research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Photostimulation, Endocrinology, Postsynaptic potential, Glutamate receptor and Internal medicine.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Enhanced synaptic connectivity and epilepsy in C1q knockout mice (228 citations)
  • Epilepsy following cortical injury: Cellular and molecular mechanisms as targets for potential prophylaxis (113 citations)
  • Surviving Hilar Somatostatin Interneurons Enlarge, Sprout Axons, and Form New Synapses with Granule Cells in a Mouse Model of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (106 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Epileptogenesis, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Neocortex. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Immunology and Neuroscience. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research includes themes of Dentate gyrus, Hippocampal formation and Neuroplasticity.

In his study, Anticonvulsant, Disease, Ketogenic diet and Synaptogenesis is inextricably linked to Neuroprotection, which falls within the broad field of Epileptogenesis. His study focuses on the intersection of Excitatory postsynaptic potential and fields such as Neurotransmission with connections in the field of Sensory system. He studied Neocortex and Glutamate receptor that intersect with Photostimulation.
