Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Inferior colliculus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Inferior colliculus, Neuroscience, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Stimulus and Excitatory postsynaptic potential. Ellen Covey interconnects Habituation, Audiology, Communication, Duration and Sound in the investigation of issues within Inferior colliculus. Her Habituation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Stimulus modality and Inferior Colliculi.

Her Neuroscience study often links to related topics such as Anatomy. Her studies in Midbrain integrate themes in fields like Binaural recording, Patch clamp and Neuron. Her Human echolocation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Motor system, Auditory system and Brainstem.

Her most cited work include:

  • Neural tuning for sound duration: role of inhibitory mechanisms in the inferior colliculus. (378 citations)
  • Stimulus-specific adaptation in the inferior colliculus of the anesthetized rat. (258 citations)
  • Whole-Cell Patch-Clamp Recording Reveals Subthreshold Sound-Evoked Postsynaptic Currents in the Inferior Colliculus of Awake Bats (214 citations)

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

Ellen Covey mainly focuses on Inferior colliculus, Neuroscience, Stimulus, Lateral lemniscus and Anatomy. Her research integrates issues of Electrophysiology, Communication, Midbrain, Human echolocation and Cochlear nucleus in her study of Inferior colliculus. As part of the same scientific family, Ellen Covey usually focuses on Communication, concentrating on Eptesicus fuscus and intersecting with Acoustics.

Auditory system, Brainstem, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Auditory cortex and Auditory nuclei are the primary areas of interest in her Neuroscience study. Her Stimulus research integrates issues from Habituation, Auditory midbrain, Neuron and Stimulus modality. Her work in Anatomy addresses issues such as Medial geniculate body, which are connected to fields such as Thalamus.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Inferior colliculus (85.33%)
  • Neuroscience (84.00%)
  • Stimulus (34.67%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2011-2016)?

  • Neuroscience (84.00%)
  • Inferior colliculus (85.33%)
  • Stimulus (34.67%)

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

Ellen Covey mainly investigates Neuroscience, Inferior colliculus, Stimulus, Eptesicus fuscus and GABAA receptor. Her research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Communication and Neuroscience. Her study looks at the relationship between Inferior colliculus and topics such as Human echolocation, which overlap with Stimulus frequency, Inferior Colliculi, Zoology, Eptesicus and Auditory system.

The Stimulus study combines topics in areas such as Binaural recording and Electrophysiology. The concepts of her Eptesicus fuscus study are interwoven with issues in Acoustics, Duration, Sound and Speech recognition. Her GABAA receptor research includes elements of gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Neuron, Bioinformatics and Midbrain.

Between 2011 and 2016, her most popular works were:

  • GABAA-Mediated Inhibition Modulates Stimulus-Specific Adaptation in the Inferior Colliculus (73 citations)
  • GABAA-Mediated Inhibition Modulates Stimulus-Specific Adaptation in the Inferior Colliculus (73 citations)
  • Stimulus-specific adaptation in specialized neurons in the inferior colliculus of the big brown bat, Eptesicus fuscus. (16 citations)
