Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Artificial intelligence

Dietmar Plenz mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Cerebral cortex, Local field potential, Anatomy and Power law. His study on Premovement neuronal activity, Bursting and Striatum is often connected to Information storage and Lesion as part of broader study in Neuroscience. As a part of the same scientific family, Dietmar Plenz mostly works in the field of Premovement neuronal activity, focusing on Cortical Synchronization and, on occasion, Cortex and Neuronal group.

Cerebral cortex is closely attributed to Dopamine in his work. Dietmar Plenz has researched Local field potential in several fields, including Nerve net, Macaque, Network model, Mutual information and Entropy. His study in Anatomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both External globus pallidus and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

His most cited work include:

  • Neuronal Avalanches in Neocortical Circuits (1535 citations)
  • A basal ganglia pacemaker formed by the subthalamic nucleus and external globus pallidus (588 citations)
  • A basal ganglia pacemaker formed by the subthalamic nucleus and external globus pallidus (588 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Premovement neuronal activity, Local field potential, Statistical physics and Cortex. His work in Cerebral cortex, Cortex, Striatum, Medium spiny neuron and Electrophysiology is related to Neuroscience. His Cerebral cortex research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cortical Synchronization and Nerve net, Anatomy.

The various areas that he examines in his Anatomy study include Bursting, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and External globus pallidus. Dietmar Plenz combines subjects such as Calcium in biology, Somatosensory system and Neuroimaging with his study of Premovement neuronal activity. As part of the same scientific family, Dietmar Plenz usually focuses on Local field potential, concentrating on Cortical neurons and intersecting with Hebbian theory.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (67.86%)
  • Premovement neuronal activity (18.75%)
  • Local field potential (18.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (67.86%)
  • Complex system (11.61%)
  • Local field potential (18.75%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Complex system, Local field potential, Statistical physics and Cortex. He is involved in the study of Neuroscience that focuses on Premovement neuronal activity in particular. His Premovement neuronal activity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Stability, Biophysics and Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

Along with Local field potential, other disciplines of study including Dynamics, Spatial correlation, Population response, Power law and Coherence are integrated into his research. The Ising model research Dietmar Plenz does as part of his general Statistical physics study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Critical phenomena, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His work deals with themes such as Cortical neurons, Sensory system and Hebbian theory, which intersect with Cortex.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The scale-invariant, temporal profile of neuronal avalanches in relation to cortical γ–oscillations (20 citations)
  • Brain active transmembrane water cycling measured by MR is associated with neuronal activity (12 citations)
  • Neuronal Avalanches in Input and Associative Layers of Auditory Cortex. (9 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Artificial intelligence

Dietmar Plenz spends much of his time researching Complex system, Statistical physics, Neuroscience, Temporal organization and Scale invariance. His Complex system studies intersect with other disciplines such as Ising model, Critical phenomena, Spacetime, Critical point and Flocking. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Statistical physics and Autocorrelation in his work.

Dietmar Plenz is studying Local field potential, which is a component of Neuroscience. Dietmar Plenz integrates Temporal organization and Brain activity and meditation in his research.
