1984 - Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Dopamine

Gordon J. Mogenson spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Nucleus accumbens, Pedunculopontine nucleus, Dopamine and Dopaminergic. His research on Neuroscience often connects related areas such as Picrotoxin. His Nucleus accumbens research integrates issues from Cholinergic, Ventral tegmental area, Hippocampal formation, GABAergic and Globus pallidus.

In the field of Endocrinology and Internal medicine Gordon J. Mogenson studies Dopamine. His Dopaminergic research incorporates elements of Agonist, Dopamine receptor, Dopamine receptor D2 and Ventral pallidum. The study incorporates disciplines such as Lateral hypothalamus and Anatomy in addition to Stria terminalis.

His most cited work include:

  • FROM MOTIVATION TO ACTION: FUNCTIONAL INTERFACE BETWEEN THE LIMBIC SYSTEM AND THE MOTOR SYSTEM (1980 citations)
  • Neural projections from nucleus accumbens to globus pallidus, substantia innominata, and lateral preoptic-lateral hypothalamic area: an anatomical and electrophysiological investigation in the rat (375 citations)
  • Evidence for a projection from the lateral preoptic area and substantia innominata to the 'mesencephalic locomotor region' in the rat. (300 citations)

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

Gordon J. Mogenson mainly investigates Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Stimulation and Nucleus accumbens. His work on Electrophysiology, Ventral tegmental area and Dopaminergic as part of general Neuroscience study is frequently connected to Pedunculopontine nucleus, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. Internal medicine is frequently linked to Anesthesia in his study.

His Stimulation research includes elements of Olfactory bulb, Forebrain, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Amygdala. The Nucleus accumbens study which covers Globus pallidus that intersects with Medium spiny neuron. His research in Lateral hypothalamus intersects with topics in Fornix, Stria terminalis, Medial forebrain bundle and Anatomy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (57.58%)
  • Endocrinology (48.48%)
  • Internal medicine (48.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1983-2019)?

  • Neuroscience (57.58%)
  • Nucleus accumbens (33.33%)
  • Pedunculopontine nucleus (15.15%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Nucleus accumbens, Pedunculopontine nucleus, Dopamine and Internal medicine. Gordon J. Mogenson interconnects Picrotoxin and Locomotor activity in the investigation of issues within Neuroscience. His research integrates issues of Anesthesia, Amphetamine, Dopaminergic, Glutamatergic and Basal ganglia in his study of Nucleus accumbens.

In his research, Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor is intimately related to Endocrinology, which falls under the overarching field of Internal medicine. His Ventral tegmental area research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cholecystokinin B receptor and Ventral striatum. His work is dedicated to discovering how Stria terminalis, Medial forebrain bundle are connected with Lateral hypothalamus and other disciplines.

Between 1983 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Evidence for a projection from the lateral preoptic area and substantia innominata to the 'mesencephalic locomotor region' in the rat. (300 citations)
  • Evidence for a projection from the lateral preoptic area and substantia innominata to the 'mesencephalic locomotor region' in the rat. (300 citations)
  • Electrophysiological responses of neurones in the nucleus accumbens to hippocampal stimulation and the attenuation of the excitatory responses by the mesolimbic dopaminergic system (227 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Dopamine
  • Neuroscience

Gordon J. Mogenson mostly deals with Neuroscience, Nucleus accumbens, Pedunculopontine nucleus, Substantia innominata and Subthalamic nucleus. His research on Neuroscience focuses in particular on Stimulation. Gordon J. Mogenson combines subjects such as Forebrain and Electrophysiology with his study of Stimulation.

His Nucleus accumbens study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Hippocampal formation, Dopaminergic, Hippocampus and Locomotor activity. His Hippocampal formation research includes elements of Glutamate antagonists, Cholinergic, Basal forebrain, Limbic system and Globus pallidus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Superior colliculus, Anatomy, Medial forebrain bundle and Lateral hypothalamus in addition to Stria terminalis.
