Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Central nervous system
  • Internal medicine

His main research concerns Cholinergic neuron, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Neuroscience and Choline acetyltransferase. His Cholinergic neuron research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Nerve growth factor, Anatomy and Basal forebrain. In general Endocrinology, his work in Area postrema, Medulla oblongata, Catecholamine and Catecholaminergic is often linked to Enkephalin linking many areas of study.

His work in Internal medicine is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Axon. His Neuroscience study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glutamatergic and Neurodegeneration. His Choline acetyltransferase study is concerned with the field of Cholinergic as a whole.

His most cited work include:

  • Distribution of cholinergic neurons in rat brain: Demonstrated by the immunocytochemical localization of choline acetyltransferase (900 citations)
  • A comparison of the distribution of central cholinergic neurons as demonstrated by acetylcholinesterase pharmacohistochemistry and choline acetyltransferase immunohistochemistry (389 citations)
  • Distribution of dopamine-, noradrenaline-, and adrenaline-containing cell bodies in the rat medulla oblongata: demonstrated by the immunocytochemical localization of catecholamine biosynthetic enzymes. (356 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Choline acetyltransferase, Neuroscience and Cholinergic neuron. His work on Neuropil and Dorsal motor nucleus as part of general Internal medicine research is often related to Nissl body, thus linking different fields of science. His Endocrinology research integrates issues from AMPA receptor and Substance P.

His Choline acetyltransferase study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Striatum, Anatomy, Brainstem, Pathology and Paramedian pontine reticular formation. He has researched Neuroscience in several fields, including Excitotoxicity, Glutamate receptor, Receptor and Cell biology. His studies deal with areas such as Nerve growth factor, Basal ganglia and Basal forebrain as well as Cholinergic neuron.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (45.45%)
  • Endocrinology (44.16%)
  • Choline acetyltransferase (37.66%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2007)?

  • Internal medicine (45.45%)
  • Endocrinology (44.16%)
  • Hippocampus (24.68%)

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

David M. Armstrong mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation and GABAA receptor. His work in the fields of Internal medicine, such as Ischemia, Nitric oxide and Neuroprotection, intersects with other areas such as Adrenocorticotropic hormone and Semax. He works on Endocrinology which deals in particular with Cerebral cortex.

His Hippocampal formation study which covers Pathology that intersects with Neuron. As part of his studies on GABAA receptor, he frequently links adjacent subjects like Neuroscience. The study incorporates disciplines such as Excitotoxicity and Senile plaques in addition to Neuroscience.

Between 2000 and 2007, his most popular works were:

  • GABAA receptors in aging and Alzheimer’s disease (148 citations)
  • Biochemical and molecular studies of NMDA receptor subunits NR1/2A/2B in hippocampal subregions throughout progression of Alzheimer's disease pathology. (110 citations)
  • Photothrombotic brain infarction results in seizure activity in aging Fischer 344 and Sprague Dawley rats. (74 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Central nervous system
  • Internal medicine

Cholinergic, Laterality, Infarction, Cortex and Ictal are his primary areas of study. The subject of his Cholinergic research is within the realm of Neuroscience. His study in Neuroscience is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Glutamatergic, Neurodegeneration and GABAA receptor.

His Laterality research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Anesthesia, Cerebral infarction, Electroencephalography and Epileptogenesis, Epilepsy.
