Overview

Guillaume Ferreira is affiliated with the University of Bordeaux in France and has contributed extensively to the fields of neuroscience and medicine. Their research primarily focuses on neuroscience, with significant attention to physiology, cellular and molecular neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, endocrine and autonomic systems, and nutrition and dietetics.

Their work addresses a variety of scientific topics, including:

  • Neuroscience and neuropharmacology research
  • Memory and neural mechanisms
  • Diet and metabolism studies
  • Stress responses and cortisol
  • Regulation of appetite and obesity
  • Biochemical analysis and sensing techniques
  • Neurogenesis and neuroplasticity mechanisms

Several of Guillaume Ferreira's recent papers reflect a focus on diet, metabolism, cognitive functions, and neurobiological processes. Notable publications include:

  • Fish oil supplementation alleviates metabolic and anxiodepressive effects of diet-induced obesity and associated changes in brain lipid composition in mice (2020, International Journal of Obesity)
  • Adult-born neurons immature during learning are necessary for remote memory reconsolidation in rats (2021, Nature Communications)
  • Causal Link between n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Deficiency and Motivation Deficits (2020, Cell Metabolism)
  • A lactate-dependent shift of glycolysis mediates synaptic and cognitive processes in male mice (2024, Nature Communications)
  • Dietary vitamin A supplementation prevents early obesogenic diet-induced microbiota, neuronal and cognitive alterations (2020, International Journal of Obesity)

Guillaume Ferreira frequently publishes in venues that focus on biological and medical sciences. The venues with the highest number of their publications include:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Nature Communications
  • Scientific Reports
  • Research Square (Research Square)
  • International Journal of Obesity

Collaborations have been an important part of Guillaume Ferreira's research activities. Frequent co-authors include:
