Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Internal medicine

Francisco Aboitiz focuses on Neuroscience, Corpus callosum, Lateralization of brain function, Cerebral cortex and Anatomy. His Sensory system and Neuroplasticity study in the realm of Neuroscience connects with subjects such as Neurotoxicity, Metabotropic glutamate receptor and Glutamatergic. The Corpus callosum study combines topics in areas such as Senescence, Commissure and Central nervous system.

His work on Brain asymmetry as part of general Lateralization of brain function study is frequently linked to Ultrasonography, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. The various areas that Francisco Aboitiz examines in his Cerebral cortex study include Dendritic spine, Forebrain and Neurotransmitter. His studies examine the connections between Anatomy and genetics, as well as such issues in Cortex, with regards to Visual cortex.

His most cited work include:

  • Fiber composition of the human corpus callosum. (1135 citations)
  • Developmental dyslexia: Four consecutive patients with cortical anomalies (1129 citations)
  • One hundred million years of interhemispheric communication: the history of the corpus callosum (243 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Working memory, Cognitive psychology, Cerebral cortex and Cognition. His Neuroscience study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Dorsum. Francisco Aboitiz interconnects Neurocognitive, Cognitive science and Audiology in the investigation of issues within Working memory.

His study in Cognitive psychology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Visual perception, Electrophysiology and Electroencephalography. The various areas that Francisco Aboitiz examines in his Cerebral cortex study include Central nervous system and Anatomy. The concepts of his Neocortex study are interwoven with issues in Forebrain and Cerebrum.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (40.58%)
  • Working memory (14.49%)
  • Cognitive psychology (12.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Working memory (14.49%)
  • Neuroscience (40.58%)
  • Cognitive science (7.97%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Working memory, Neuroscience, Cognitive science, Whale and Speech sounds. In general Working memory study, his work on Baddeley's model of working memory often relates to the realm of Interface, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His study in Stimulus, Hippocampus, Neural activity, Spatial memory and Prefrontal cortex is carried out as part of his studies in Neuroscience.

His work deals with themes such as Lateralization of brain function and Brain development, which intersect with Cognitive science. As part of his studies on Cognition, Francisco Aboitiz often connects relevant areas like Audiology. The Audiology study which covers Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale that intersects with Pupil.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Coordinated prefrontal–hippocampal activity and navigation strategy-related prefrontal firing during spatial memory formation (18 citations)
  • A Brain for Speech. Evolutionary Continuity in Primate and Human Auditory-Vocal Processing (15 citations)
  • Imitation of novel conspecific and human speech sounds in the killer whale (Orcinus orca) (15 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Internal medicine

Francisco Aboitiz spends much of his time researching Working memory, Neuroscience, Neurocognitive, Local field potential and Vocal learning. His Working memory research includes themes of Neuropsychology, Pediatrics, Audiology and Obstructive sleep apnea. Francisco Aboitiz undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Neuroscience and Arcuate fasciculus in his work.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Verbal comprehension, Sleep apnea and Sleep spindle, Non-rapid eye movement sleep in addition to Neurocognitive. Francisco Aboitiz has researched Local field potential in several fields, including Reference memory, Hippocampal formation, Memory formation, Prefrontal cortex and Spatial memory. His work is dedicated to discovering how Vocal learning, Whale are connected with Imitative learning and Communication and other disciplines.
