Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive psychology

Her main research concerns Cognitive psychology, Semantic memory, Semantic dementia, Cognition and Semantics. Her work deals with themes such as Nonverbal communication, Context, Neuropsychology and Comprehension, which intersect with Cognitive psychology. Her Semantic memory research incorporates themes from Middle temporal gyrus, Temporal cortex, Temporal lobe and Prefrontal cortex.

Her Temporal lobe study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sensory system and Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Fusiform gyrus. Her study looks at the relationship between Cognition and topics such as Perception, which overlap with Level of detail and Mind-wandering. The various areas that Elizabeth Jefferies examines in her Semantics study include Developmental psychology, Cognitive science and Amodal perception.

Her most cited work include:

  • Situating the default-mode network along a principal gradient of macroscale cortical organization (650 citations)
  • The neural and computational bases of semantic cognition (583 citations)
  • Semantic impairment in stroke aphasia versus semantic dementia: a case-series comparison (543 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Semantic memory, Semantic dementia and Semantics. The Cognitive psychology study combines topics in areas such as Context, Default mode network and Comprehension. Her work in Cognition addresses issues such as Perception, which are connected to fields such as Sensory system and Experience sampling method.

Her Semantic memory research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Temporal cortex, Nonverbal communication, Neuropsychology, Temporal lobe and Brain mapping. Her Temporal lobe research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Frontal lobe, Middle temporal gyrus and Functional neuroimaging. Her Aphasia research includes elements of Developmental psychology and Language disorder.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (79.79%)
  • Cognition (38.34%)
  • Semantic memory (37.82%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Cognitive psychology (79.79%)
  • Cognition (38.34%)
  • Context (11.40%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Context, Control and Default mode network. Her Cognitive psychology study combines topics in areas such as Experience sampling method, Perception, Dominance, Variation and Neurocognitive. Elizabeth Jefferies interconnects Social relation and Resting state fMRI in the investigation of issues within Cognition.

Her Context research incorporates elements of Feature relevance, Cognitive science, Cognitive neuroscience, Semantic memory and Aphasia. Her Semantic memory study incorporates themes from Feature, Long-term memory and Semantic similarity. Her Control study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Meaning and Comprehension.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Reductions in task positive neural systems occur with the passage of time and are associated with changes in ongoing thought. (14 citations)
  • The relationship between individual variation in macroscale functional gradients and distinct aspects of ongoing thought. (14 citations)
  • A gradient from long-term memory to novel cognition: Transitions through default mode and executive cortex. (12 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence

Elizabeth Jefferies mostly deals with Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Default mode network, Control and Hierarchy. She has included themes like Experience sampling method, Neurocognitive, Mind-wandering and Functional magnetic resonance imaging in her Cognitive psychology study. Her specific area of interest is Cognition, where Elizabeth Jefferies studies Working memory.

In her work, Angular gyrus and Middle temporal gyrus is strongly intertwined with Posterior cingulate, which is a subfield of Working memory. Her study in Default mode network is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Long-term memory, Semantic similarity, Feature, Semantic memory and Pattern recognition. Her work focuses on many connections between Control and other disciplines, such as Cognitive science, that overlap with her field of interest in Cognitive neuroscience, Semantics and Object.
