Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Law
  • Management
  • Internal medicine

David Collins mainly investigates Neuroscience, Stimulation, Reflex, Anatomy and Muscle contraction. David Collins focuses mostly in the field of Neuroscience, narrowing it down to matters related to Movement and, in some cases, Tonic, Forearm, Modulation and Task. David Collins works mostly in the field of Stimulation, limiting it down to topics relating to Neuron and, in certain cases, Tibialis anterior muscle and Anesthesia.

His work carried out in the field of Reflex brings together such families of science as Stimulus and Rhythm, Central pattern generator. The various areas that he examines in his Anatomy study include Plateau potentials, Illusion and Spinal cord. His research investigates the connection between Muscle contraction and topics such as H-reflex that intersect with problems in Soleus muscle.

His most cited work include:

  • Reversal of the influence of group Ib afferents from plantaris on activity in medial gastrocnemius muscle during locomotor activity (318 citations)
  • Cutaneous Receptors Contribute to Kinesthesia at the Index Finger, Elbow, and Knee (300 citations)
  • Sensori-sensory afferent conditioning with leg movement: Gain control in spinal reflex and ascending paths (224 citations)

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

David Collins mainly focuses on Stimulation, Neuroscience, Reflex, Anatomy and Hydrology. He works mostly in the field of Stimulation, limiting it down to concerns involving Electromyography and, occasionally, Muscle contraction and Motor unit. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Movement and Rhythm.

His work on H-reflex as part of general Reflex research is often related to Body movement and Chemistry, thus linking different fields of science. His Anatomy research incorporates elements of Peripheral, Electrophysiology, Plateau potentials and Isometric exercise. In his study, Drainage basin and Climatology is inextricably linked to Glacier, which falls within the broad field of Hydrology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stimulation (23.59%)
  • Neuroscience (17.44%)
  • Reflex (17.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Stimulation (23.59%)
  • Physical medicine and rehabilitation (10.26%)
  • Motor unit (5.64%)

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

David Collins mostly deals with Stimulation, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Motor unit, Electromyography and Neuroscience. His studies in Stimulation integrate themes in fields like Anesthesia and Reflex. David Collins interconnects Median nerve, Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Motor cortex, Spasticity and Forearm in the investigation of issues within Reflex.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Physical therapy, Isometric exercise and Cardiology in addition to Physical medicine and rehabilitation. His Motor unit research incorporates themes from Common peroneal nerve, Stimulus, Contraction, Motor unit recruitment and Tibialis anterior muscle. In the field of Electromyography, his study on H-reflex overlaps with subjects such as Muscle belly.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Asynchronous recruitment of low-threshold motor units during repetitive, low-current stimulation of the human tibial nerve (21 citations)
  • Interleaved neuromuscular electrical stimulation reduces muscle fatigue (18 citations)
  • Utilizing Physiological Principles of Motor Unit Recruitment to Reduce Fatigability of Electrically-Evoked Contractions: A Narrative Review. (13 citations)

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

  • Law
  • Internal medicine
  • Management

His primary areas of investigation include Motor unit, Electromyography, Motor unit recruitment, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Stimulus. As part of his studies on Motor unit, David Collins often connects relevant subjects like Stimulation. His Stimulation research includes themes of Muscle nerve and Reflex.

His Reflex study introduces a deeper knowledge of Neuroscience. His Physical medicine and rehabilitation research focuses on Physical therapy and how it relates to Functional electrical stimulation, H-reflex, Motor impairment and Nerve trunk. The Stimulus study combines topics in areas such as Common peroneal nerve and Audiology.
