  • 2008 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

Fritz A. Henn is affiliated with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on neuroscience, with particular attention to subfields such as cellular and molecular neuroscience, biological psychiatry, and cognitive neuroscience.

Their work spans several main topics including neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, tryptophan and brain disorders, as well as memory and neural mechanisms. This reflects a broad engagement with the biological and chemical bases of brain function and dysfunction.

One of the recent published papers by Fritz A. Henn is titled "Changes in concentrations of NMDA receptor subunit GluN2B, Arc and syntaxin-1 in dorsal hippocampus Schaffer collateral synapses in a rat learned helplessness model of depression," published in 2021 in The Journal of Comparative Neurology.

Frequent co-authors in their research include:

  • Malte Bieler
  • Suleman Hussain
  • Elise S. B. Daaland
  • Martine M. Mirrione
  • Svend Davanger

Regarding publication venues, Fritz A. Henn has contributed to The Journal of Comparative Neurology.

In recognition of their professional work, they were elected as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in 2008.
