Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

Igor Spigelman spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, GABAA receptor, Pharmacology, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Receptor. His Neuroscience study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Postsynaptic potential. Igor Spigelman interconnects Alcohol withdrawal syndrome and Diazepam in the investigation of issues within GABAA receptor.

His work carried out in the field of Pharmacology brings together such families of science as BAPTA, Long-term potentiation and Benzodiazepine. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research incorporates elements of Neurotransmission and Gaboxadol. His study in Receptor is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ethanol and Tonic.

His most cited work include:

  • Attenuated sensitivity to neuroactive steroids in γ-aminobutyrate type A receptor delta subunit knockout mice (452 citations)
  • Withdrawal from chronic intermittent ethanol treatment changes subunit composition, reduces synaptic function, and decreases behavioral responses to positive allosteric modulators of GABAA receptors. (300 citations)
  • GABAA receptor α4 subunits mediate extrasynaptic inhibition in thalamus and dentate gyrus and the action of gaboxadol (260 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, GABAA receptor and Pharmacology. Igor Spigelman combines subjects such as Biophysics and Substance P with his study of Neuroscience. His Endocrinology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Anesthesia and Calcitonin gene-related peptide.

His GABAA receptor study combines topics in areas such as Dentate gyrus, Long-term potentiation, Ethanol and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research integrates issues from Postsynaptic potential, Muscimol, Neurotransmission and Gaboxadol. His studies in Pharmacology integrate themes in fields like Cannabinoid, Benzodiazepine, Central nervous system and Cannabinoid receptor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (37.11%)
  • Endocrinology (27.84%)
  • Internal medicine (27.84%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Pharmacology (19.59%)
  • Cell biology (9.28%)
  • Internal medicine (27.84%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Pharmacology, Cell biology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Chronic pain. The concepts of his Pharmacology study are interwoven with issues in Neuroactive steroid, Cannabinoid, Central nervous system and Cannabinoid receptor. His Internal medicine study typically links adjacent topics like Protein subunit.

Igor Spigelman has researched Endocrinology in several fields, including Synaptic plasticity, Receptor, Anxiolytic and Downregulation and upregulation. His GABAA receptor research focuses on Ethanol and how it connects with Neurotransmission. His Neurotransmission research includes themes of Biophysics, Picrotoxin and Postsynaptic potential.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A bioengineered peripheral nerve construct using aligned peptide amphiphile nanofibers (74 citations)
  • Induction and Expression of Fear Sensitization Caused by Acute Traumatic Stress (50 citations)
  • Gene expression signatures affected by alcohol-induced DNA methylomic deregulation in human embryonic stem cells. (47 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Sciatic nerve, Neurotransmission, Cell biology, Anesthesia and Agonist. His work on Peripheral nerve injury as part of general Sciatic nerve research is frequently linked to PLGA, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Neurotransmission research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ethanol, Alcohol, GABAA receptor and Nucleus accumbens.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Polyadenylation, Messenger RNA, RNA, Sensory Receptor Cells and Anatomy. His Anesthesia study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Post-tetanic potentiation, Perforant path, Biophysics, Postsynaptic Current and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential. His research in Agonist intersects with topics in Neuralgia, Cannabinoid, Central nervous system and Pharmacology.
