Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Neuron

Douglas G. McMahon mainly investigates Circadian rhythm, Neuroscience, Circadian clock, Period Circadian Proteins and Suprachiasmatic nucleus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Retina, Period and Cell biology in addition to Circadian rhythm. The various areas that he examines in his Retina study include CLOCK and Dopamine.

His work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Raphe, Genetically modified mouse, Retinal and Serotonin. His Period Circadian Proteins research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Constant light, Oscillating gene and Rhythm. Douglas G. McMahon combines subjects such as PER1, Vasoactive intestinal peptide and Depolarization with his study of Suprachiasmatic nucleus.

His most cited work include:

  • Synchronization and Maintenance of Timekeeping in Suprachiasmatic Circadian Clock Cells by Neuropeptidergic Signaling (362 citations)
  • Constant light desynchronizes mammalian clock neurons. (295 citations)
  • Amphetamine induces dopamine efflux through a dopamine transporter channel (236 citations)

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

Douglas G. McMahon spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Circadian rhythm, Cell biology, Circadian clock and Retina. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Retinal and Serotonergic. His Circadian rhythm study focuses on Internal medicine and Endocrinology.

His Cell biology research incorporates elements of Mammalian retina and Gene, Zebrafish, Green fluorescent protein. His work deals with themes such as Entrainment, photoperiodism and Period, which intersect with Circadian clock. His Retina research includes themes of Anatomy and Tyrosine hydroxylase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (40.38%)
  • Circadian rhythm (35.90%)
  • Cell biology (26.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (40.38%)
  • Circadian clock (25.00%)
  • Circadian rhythm (35.90%)

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

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Circadian clock, Circadian rhythm, Dorsal raphe nucleus and Cell biology. His work on Electrophysiology, Neuron and Retina as part of his general Neuroscience study is frequently connected to Brain network, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Retina study combines topics in areas such as Adaptation, Retinal, Cell specific and Genetically modified mouse.

His study in Circadian clock is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Zoology, Sleep in non-human animals, Entrainment and Suprachiasmatic nucleus. He performs multidisciplinary studies into Circadian rhythm and Neonicotinoid in his work. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like CLOCK and photoperiodism.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Manipulating circadian clock neuron firing rate resets molecular circadian rhythms and behavior (83 citations)
  • Photoperiod programs dorsal raphe serotonergic neurons and affective behaviors. (41 citations)
  • The Retina and Other Light-sensitive Ocular Clocks (39 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Neuron

Neuroscience, Circadian clock, Circadian rhythm, Retina and Dorsal raphe nucleus are his primary areas of study. Neuroscience connects with themes related to Retinal in his study. His work on Suprachiasmatic nucleus expands to the thematically related Circadian clock.

His study on Phase response curve, CLOCK Proteins, Period Circadian Proteins and Light effects on circadian rhythm is often connected to Muller glia as part of broader study in Circadian rhythm. His study in Retina is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both CLOCK, Knockout mouse, Cell type and Cell biology. His Dorsal raphe nucleus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Raphe, Raphe nuclei and Midbrain.
