Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Hippocampus, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. His Spatial learning, Water maze and Electrophysiology study in the realm of Neuroscience interacts with subjects such as Spatial representation and Familiar environment. His Hippocampal formation research incorporates elements of Radial arm maze, Memory impairment, Sensory cue, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Temporal lobe.

In general Hippocampus study, his work on Place cell often relates to the realm of Glial fibrillary acidic protein, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His work deals with themes such as Genetically modified mouse, Transgene, Presenilin and Amyloid precursor protein, which intersect with Endocrinology. In most of his Internal medicine studies, his work intersects topics such as Compartmentalization.

His most cited work include:

  • The Hippocampus, Memory, and Place Cells: Is It Spatial Memory or a Memory Space? (826 citations)
  • Amyloid β-Induced Neuronal Hyperexcitability Triggers Progressive Epilepsy (394 citations)
  • Cues that hippocampal place cells encode: dynamic and hierarchical representation of local and distal stimuli. (267 citations)

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

Heikki Tanila mostly deals with Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hippocampal formation and Hippocampus. His Disease research extends to the thematically linked field of Neuroscience. His Internal medicine research includes elements of Dexmedetomidine and Genetically modified mouse.

Within one scientific family, Heikki Tanila focuses on topics pertaining to Amyloid precursor protein under Genetically modified mouse, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Presenilin. His work on Cerebral cortex and Hippocampus as part of his general Endocrinology study is frequently connected to Atipamezole, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Hippocampus study often links to related topics such as Cortex.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (39.11%)
  • Internal medicine (38.75%)
  • Endocrinology (38.75%)

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

  • Neuroscience (39.11%)
  • Hippocampus (23.25%)
  • Hippocampal formation (24.35%)

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

Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation, Cell biology and Internal medicine are his primary areas of study. Heikki Tanila usually deals with Neuroscience and limits it to topics linked to Parkinson's disease and Lesion, Striatum, Dopaminergic and Dopamine. His study in Hippocampus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Memory task and Microglia.

His work carried out in the field of Hippocampal formation brings together such families of science as Weaning, Local field potential and Marble burying. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phenotype, Spike-wave discharges, Endocrinology and Signal transduction in addition to Internal medicine. He combines subjects such as Extracellular and Urokinase with his study of Endocrinology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Loss of NRF-2 and PGC-1α genes leads to retinal pigment epithelium damage resembling dry age-related macular degeneration. (48 citations)
  • Altered Insulin Signaling in Alzheimer's Disease Brain - Special Emphasis on PI3K-Akt Pathway. (47 citations)
  • Molecular Mechanisms of Synaptotoxicity and Neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's Disease. (30 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Neuroscience, Electroencephalography, Genetically modified mouse and Neurodegeneration. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ataxia, Cerebellar ataxia, Neuromuscular junction and Reductase. His research in Neuroscience is mostly focused on Electrophysiology.

In his work, Local field potential, Beta, Amyloid precursor protein, Amyloid and Transgene is strongly intertwined with Epilepsy, which is a subfield of Electroencephalography. His work deals with themes such as Autophagy, Hippocampus, Carbohydrate metabolism and Amyloid beta, which intersect with Genetically modified mouse. The various areas that he examines in his Neurodegeneration study include Neurogenesis, Long-term potentiation, Astrocyte and Beta oxidation.
