Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry

Her primary areas of study are Alzheimer's disease, Insulin receptor, Insulin resistance, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. The various areas that Fernanda G. De Felice examines in her Alzheimer's disease study include Biochemistry, Immunology, Hippocampal formation, Cell biology and Amyloid. She has included themes like NMDA receptor and Oxidative stress in her Cell biology study.

Insulin receptor is a primary field of her research addressed under Insulin. Her Insulin resistance research includes elements of Inflammation, Central nervous system and Type 2 diabetes. Her work investigates the relationship between Diabetes mellitus and topics such as Disease that intersect with problems in Neuroscience, Pathogenesis and Bioinformatics.

Her most cited work include:

  • Aβ Oligomers Induce Neuronal Oxidative Stress through an N-Methyl-D-aspartate Receptor-dependent Mechanism That Is Blocked by the Alzheimer Drug Memantine (699 citations)
  • Aβ Oligomers Induce Neuronal Oxidative Stress through an N-Methyl-D-aspartate Receptor-dependent Mechanism That Is Blocked by the Alzheimer Drug Memantine (699 citations)
  • An anti-diabetes agent protects the mouse brain from defective insulin signaling caused by Alzheimer’s disease–associated Aβ oligomers (526 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Disease, Insulin receptor, Synapse and Insulin resistance. The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Alzheimer's disease, Long-term potentiation and Pathogenesis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biochemistry, Immunology and Amyloid in addition to Alzheimer's disease.

Fernanda G. De Felice combines subjects such as Signal transduction and Type 2 diabetes with her study of Insulin receptor. As a part of the same scientific study, Fernanda G. De Felice usually deals with the Synapse, concentrating on Hippocampal formation and frequently concerns with Cell biology, Oxidative stress, Phosphorylation and Downregulation and upregulation. Her study looks at the relationship between Insulin resistance and topics such as Synaptic plasticity, which overlap with Cognitive decline.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (61.21%)
  • Disease (43.03%)
  • Insulin receptor (35.15%)

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

  • Neuroscience (61.21%)
  • Disease (43.03%)
  • Synaptic plasticity (17.58%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Disease, Synaptic plasticity, Insulin resistance and Neuroprotection. The Neuroscience study which covers Long-term potentiation that intersects with Downregulation and upregulation, Human brain and Microgliosis. Her work on Dementia as part of her general Disease study is frequently connected to FNDC5, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

Her research on Synaptic plasticity also deals with topics like

  • Cognitive decline which intersects with area such as Diabetes mellitus,
  • Memory impairment which connect with Inflammation, Hippocampal formation, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. Her primary area of study in Insulin resistance is in the field of Insulin receptor. Her Insulin study incorporates themes from Genetically modified mouse and Amyloid.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Exercise-linked FNDC5/irisin rescues synaptic plasticity and memory defects in Alzheimer's models (177 citations)
  • Exercise-linked FNDC5/irisin rescues synaptic plasticity and memory defects in Alzheimer's models (177 citations)
  • Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the Central Nervous System. (101 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Biochemistry
  • Amino acid

Fernanda G. De Felice mostly deals with Neuroscience, Disease, Neuroprotection, Insulin resistance and Insulin receptor. Her Neuroscience study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Long-term potentiation. Her Long-term potentiation course of study focuses on Human brain and Hippocampal formation.

Her work carried out in the field of Disease brings together such families of science as Type 2 diabetes and Bioinformatics. Her Neuroprotection study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Synapse and Cell biology. Neuroplasticity and Physical exercise is closely connected to Synaptic plasticity in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Insulin resistance.
