Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Elliott J. Mufson mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Basal forebrain, Endocrinology and Cholinergic. His Neuroscience research integrates issues from Alzheimer's disease, Neurotrophin and Anatomy. Elliott J. Mufson works mostly in the field of Internal medicine, limiting it down to concerns involving Oncology and, occasionally, Analysis of variance and Central nervous system disease.

His research integrates issues of Cerebral cortex, Nucleus and Thalamus in his study of Basal forebrain. His study looks at the relationship between Endocrinology and topics such as Nerve growth factor, which overlap with Central nervous system. His work in Cholinergic neuron and Choline acetyltransferase are all subfields of Cholinergic research.

His most cited work include:

  • Cholinergic innervation of cortex by the basal forebrain : cytochemistry and cortical connections of the septal area, diagonal band nuclei, nucleus basalis (substantia innominata), and hypothalamus in the rhesus monkey (1641 citations)
  • A phase 1 clinical trial of nerve growth factor gene therapy for Alzheimer disease (850 citations)
  • Insula of the old world monkey. III: Efferent cortical output and comments on function. (834 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Cholinergic and Alzheimer's disease. His studies in Neuroscience integrate themes in fields like Disease and Anatomy. His work carried out in the field of Endocrinology brings together such families of science as Nerve growth factor, Neurotrophin, Neuropeptide, Receptor and Galanin.

His studies deal with areas such as Acetylcholinesterase and Acetylcholine as well as Cholinergic. Elliott J. Mufson focuses mostly in the field of Alzheimer's disease, narrowing it down to matters related to Cognitive decline and, in some cases, Neurodegeneration. His work in Basal forebrain covers topics such as Striatum which are related to areas like Putamen and Parkinson's disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (47.35%)
  • Internal medicine (38.16%)
  • Endocrinology (36.40%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2019)?

  • Alzheimer's disease (30.04%)
  • Neuroscience (47.35%)
  • Disease (12.01%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Alzheimer's disease, Neuroscience, Disease, Hippocampal formation and Pathology. His Alzheimer's disease research is within the category of Internal medicine. The various areas that Elliott J. Mufson examines in his Neuroscience study include Postsynaptic potential and Synaptophysin.

His work focuses on many connections between Hippocampal formation and other disciplines, such as Hippocampus, that overlap with his field of interest in Neocortex and Synapse. He works mostly in the field of Pathology, limiting it down to topics relating to Cortex and, in certain cases, Neuron and Entorhinal cortex, as a part of the same area of interest. The study incorporates disciplines such as Choline acetyltransferase and Substantia innominata in addition to Nucleus basalis.

Between 2011 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complex and RNA splicing alterations in Alzheimer's disease (179 citations)
  • Mild cognitive impairment: pathology and mechanisms (139 citations)
  • Synaptic gene dysregulation within hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons in mild cognitive impairment (73 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Elliott J. Mufson mainly investigates Alzheimer's disease, Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation and Pathology. His Alzheimer's disease research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cognitive decline, Postsynaptic potential and Synaptophysin. His Neuroscience study typically links adjacent topics like Offspring.

Internal medicine and Endocrinology are the two main areas of interest in his Hippocampal formation studies. In the subject of general Internal medicine, his work in Amyloid, Neurotrophin, Tropomyosin receptor kinase A and Nerve growth factor is often linked to MAPK/ERK pathway, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His work deals with themes such as Nucleus basalis, Basal forebrain, Choline and Choline chloride, which intersect with Water maze.
