What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Neuron
- Neurotransmitter
Gary L. Wenk focuses on Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Basal forebrain and Cholinergic.
Gary L. Wenk has researched Neuroscience in several fields, including Alzheimer's disease and Memantine.
His Endocrinology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as NMDA receptor, Neuroinflammation and Microglia.
His Neuroinflammation study is concerned with the larger field of Inflammation.
His Basal forebrain study combines topics in areas such as Ibotenic acid, Radial arm maze and Cholinergic neuron.
His work on Choline acetyltransferase as part of general Cholinergic study is frequently connected to Eyeblink conditioning, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
His most cited work include:
- Inflammation and Alzheimer's disease. (3451 citations)
- Neuropathologic changes in Alzheimer's disease. (386 citations)
- Lesions in nucleus basalis magnocellularis and medial septal area of rats produce qualitatively similar memory impairments (366 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Gary L. Wenk spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Neuroinflammation and Cholinergic.
His research investigates the link between Neuroscience and topics such as NMDA receptor that cross with problems in Glutamate receptor and Pharmacology.
His work in the fields of Choline acetyltransferase, Acetylcholine and Cerebral cortex overlaps with other areas such as Rett syndrome.
His work deals with themes such as Alzheimer's disease, Neurogenesis, Microglia and Endocannabinoid system, which intersect with Neuroinflammation.
His study in Cholinergic is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cholinesterase, Serotonergic, Neurotransmission and Neurotransmitter.
His study on Basal forebrain also encompasses disciplines like
- Neuroprotection most often made with reference to Cholinergic neuron,
- Ibotenic acid which connect with Radial arm maze.
He most often published in these fields:
- Neuroscience (58.15%)
- Internal medicine (37.50%)
- Endocrinology (36.96%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2021)?
- Neuroinflammation (25.54%)
- Neuroscience (58.15%)
- Hippocampus (22.83%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Neuroinflammation, Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Internal medicine and Endocrinology.
His Neuroinflammation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ryanodine receptor, Microglia, Endocannabinoid system, Pharmacology and Morris water navigation task.
Within the field of Inflammation and Immunology Gary L. Wenk studies Microglia.
Gary L. Wenk has included themes like Agonist, Cannabinoid and Dantrolene in his Neuroscience study.
His Hippocampus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Glutamatergic, Central nervous system, Neuron, Long-term potentiation and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.
Gary L. Wenk combines subjects such as Immune system, Signal transduction, Cytokine and Pathogenesis with his study of Endocrinology.
Between 2008 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- The Neuron-Astrocyte-Microglia Triad in Normal Brain Ageing and in a Model of Neuroinflammation in the Rat Hippocampus (150 citations)
- Caffeine attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced neuroinflammation. (69 citations)
- Cannabinoids attenuate the effects of aging upon neuroinflammation and neurogenesis (66 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Neuron
- Neurotransmitter
His main research concerns Neuroinflammation, Hippocampus, Neuroscience, Internal medicine and Microglia.
His Neuroinflammation research is within the category of Immunology.
Gary L. Wenk works mostly in the field of Neuroscience, limiting it down to topics relating to Agonist and, in certain cases, Memory impairment and Stimulation, as a part of the same area of interest.
His Internal medicine study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Endocrinology.
Stratum lucidum, Long-term potentiation and Ageing is closely connected to Pathology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Microglia.
His Pharmacology research includes elements of Nicotinic agonist and Cholinergic.
