Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition

Her primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Chronic pain, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Physical therapy and Somatosensory system. Her work deals with themes such as Back pain and Clinical psychology, Mood, which intersect with Chronic pain. Her Functional magnetic resonance imaging research includes elements of Prefrontal cortex, Orbitofrontal cortex, Thalamus, Developmental psychology and Ventral striatum.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Imaging phantom, Amputation, Phantom limb and Anatomy in addition to Somatosensory system. Herta Flor has included themes like Neuroplasticity and Electroencephalography in her Physical medicine and rehabilitation study. Her Amputation research integrates issues from Anesthesia, Perception and Sensation.

Her most cited work include:

  • Quantitative sensory testing in the German Research Network on Neuropathic Pain (DFNS): Standardized protocol and reference values (1603 citations)
  • Phantom-limb pain as a perceptual correlate of cortical reorganization following arm amputation (1477 citations)
  • A spelling device for the paralysed (1292 citations)

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

Herta Flor spends much of her time researching Neuroscience, Clinical psychology, Chronic pain, Cognition and Functional magnetic resonance imaging. Her study in Somatosensory system, Amygdala, Brain mapping, Ventral striatum and Electroencephalography falls under the purview of Neuroscience. Herta Flor has researched Somatosensory system in several fields, including Sensory system, Anatomy, Somatosensory evoked potential, Neuroplasticity and Phantom limb.

Her Clinical psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Psychiatry, Neuroimaging, Cannabis and Personality. Her research investigates the connection between Chronic pain and topics such as Physical medicine and rehabilitation that intersect with issues in Phantom limb pain. As a member of one scientific family, Herta Flor mostly works in the field of Cognition, focusing on Developmental psychology and, on occasion, Arousal.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (24.71%)
  • Clinical psychology (25.49%)
  • Chronic pain (15.29%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Clinical psychology (25.49%)
  • Neuroimaging (11.50%)
  • Psychopathology (9.54%)

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

Her main research concerns Clinical psychology, Neuroimaging, Psychopathology, Cognition and Neuroscience. Herta Flor combines subjects such as Personality, Substance abuse, Cannabis and Amygdala with her study of Clinical psychology. Her research on Psychopathology also deals with topics like

  • Psychosis most often made with reference to Young adult,
  • Developmental psychology which connect with Association.

Her Cognition research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Longitudinal study, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Cohort. Her research on Neuroscience frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Anxiety. Her study focuses on the intersection of Somatosensory system and fields such as Chronic pain with connections in the field of Internal medicine.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The revised International Association for the Study of Pain definition of pain: concepts, challenges, and compromises. (282 citations)
  • The genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex (163 citations)
  • Addiction Research Consortium: Losing and regaining control over drug intake (ReCoDe)-From trajectories to mechanisms and interventions. (58 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition

Her primary areas of study are Clinical psychology, Neuroimaging, Psychopathology, Cohort and Longitudinal study. Her Clinical psychology research includes elements of Psychological intervention, Neuropsychology, Disease and Personality. Her Psychopathology research also works with subjects such as

  • Central sulcus, Cerebral cortex, Genetic variation, Genetic architecture and Brain mapping most often made with reference to Genome-wide association study,
  • Internal medicine and related Somatosensory system.

Her Longitudinal study study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Psychosocial, Cognition, Binge drinking, Etiology and Cannabis. Herta Flor usually deals with Audiology and limits it to topics linked to Prefrontal cortex and Functional magnetic resonance imaging. Her research integrates issues of Insula and Neuroscience in her study of Sensation seeking.
