Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

Heiko J. Luhmann mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Neocortex, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Cerebral cortex and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential. His Neuroscience research includes themes of Postsynaptic potential and Neurotransmission. His Neocortex research incorporates elements of Depolarization and Premovement neuronal activity.

The concepts of his Excitatory postsynaptic potential study are interwoven with issues in Glutamate receptor, Giant depolarizing potentials and Intracellular. The Cerebral cortex study which covers Muscimol that intersects with Kainate receptor and Dizocilpine. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Synaptic plasticity and Lesion.

His most cited work include:

  • Postnatal maturation of the GABAergic system in rat neocortex (508 citations)
  • Cl− uptake promoting depolarizing GABA actions in immature rat neocortical neurones is mediated by NKCC1 (446 citations)
  • Early patterns of electrical activity in the developing cerebral cortex of humans and rodents (355 citations)

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

Neuroscience, Cerebral cortex, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Neocortex and Cell biology are his primary areas of study. His Neuroscience and Somatosensory system, Barrel cortex, Electrophysiology, Subplate and Sensory system investigations all form part of his Neuroscience research activities. His Cerebral cortex research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biological neural network, Programmed cell death, Central nervous system and Cortex.

His Excitatory postsynaptic potential research integrates issues from Glutamate receptor, Reversal potential, Neurotransmission and GABAA receptor. His work carried out in the field of Neocortex brings together such families of science as GABAergic and Premovement neuronal activity. The various areas that Heiko J. Luhmann examines in his Cell biology study include Receptor, Biochemistry and Blood–brain barrier.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (63.31%)
  • Cerebral cortex (20.16%)
  • Excitatory postsynaptic potential (17.34%)

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

  • Neuroscience (63.31%)
  • GABAA receptor (11.69%)
  • GABAergic (13.31%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, GABAA receptor, GABAergic, Glutamatergic and Barrel cortex. Neuroscience is represented through his Sensory system, Cerebral cortex, Premovement neuronal activity, Subplate and Cortex research. His studies deal with areas such as Neocortex, Neuroplasticity and Brain damage as well as Subplate.

His GABAA receptor research incorporates themes from Hippocampal formation and Biophysics, Depolarization. His research investigates the connection between Glutamatergic and topics such as Excitatory postsynaptic potential that intersect with issues in Glutamate receptor, Electrophysiology, Hippocampus and Neurotransmission. His Barrel cortex study is related to the wider topic of Somatosensory system.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Neuronal activity patterns in the developing barrel cortex (63 citations)
  • Transient cortical circuits match spontaneous and sensory-driven activity during development. (21 citations)
  • The Superior Function of the Subplate in Early Neocortical Development. (21 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

Heiko J. Luhmann spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Sensory system, Barrel cortex, Biophysics and Glutamatergic. Cortex and Cortical architecture are the subjects of his Neuroscience studies. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cerebral cortex and Subplate in addition to Sensory system.

In his study, GABAergic is strongly linked to Brain damage, which falls under the umbrella field of Cerebral cortex. His studies in Biophysics integrate themes in fields like Blood–brain barrier, In vitro, Giant depolarizing potentials and GABAA receptor. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Glutamatergic, Autotaxin, Synapse organization and Electrophysiology is strongly linked to Excitatory postsynaptic potential.
