Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Her primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Neurotrophic factors, Neurotrophin, Nervous system and Cell biology. Her Neuroscience study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Subventricular zone, Neural stem cell and Anatomy. Her Neurotrophin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurotrophin-3, Tropomyosin receptor kinase B and Nerve growth factor.

Her Neurotrophin-3 research incorporates themes from Spiral ganglion and Trk receptor. She works mostly in the field of Nervous system, limiting it down to topics relating to Enteric nervous system and, in certain cases, Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurturin and GDNF family of ligands, as a part of the same area of interest. Her work on Enamel knot as part of general Cell biology study is frequently linked to Lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Her most cited work include:

  • Mice Lacking α-Synuclein Display Functional Deficits in the Nigrostriatal Dopamine System (1431 citations)
  • Renal and neuronal abnormalities in mice lacking GDNF. (1152 citations)
  • Targeted disruption of the BDNF gene perturbs brain and sensory neuron development but not motor neuron development (949 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Cell biology, Neural stem cell, Neurogenesis and Neurotrophin. Her Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Anatomy and Nerve growth factor. Isabel Fariñas focuses mostly in the field of Cell biology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Regulation of gene expression and, in certain cases, Transcription factor.

The concepts of her Neural stem cell study are interwoven with issues in Cellular differentiation, Subependymal zone, Neurosphere and Transcriptome. Her studies deal with areas such as Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurotrophic factors, Tropomyosin receptor kinase B and Nervous system as well as Neurotrophin. Her Neurotrophic factors research incorporates elements of Peripheral nervous system and Endocrinology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (45.71%)
  • Cell biology (42.86%)
  • Neural stem cell (28.57%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Cell biology (42.86%)
  • Neural stem cell (28.57%)
  • Neurogenesis (25.71%)

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

Her main research concerns Cell biology, Neural stem cell, Neurogenesis, Subventricular zone and Subependymal zone. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Downregulation and upregulation and Cerebrospinal fluid. Her Neural stem cell research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Polyadenylation, Receptor and Transcriptome.

Her Neurogenesis study is concerned with Neuroscience in general. Isabel Fariñas interconnects Niche and Bridge in the investigation of issues within Neuroscience. Isabel Fariñas has included themes like Dopaminergic, Dopamine, MPTP, Neurotransmission and Regulator in her Subependymal zone study.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Selective α-Synuclein Knockdown in Monoamine Neurons by Intranasal Oligonucleotide Delivery: Potential Therapy for Parkinson’s Disease (40 citations)
  • Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 4 Regulates Adult Neural Stem Cell Proliferation and Differentiation in Response to Insulin. (17 citations)
  • Interaction between Angiotensin Type 1, Type 2, and Mas Receptors to Regulate Adult Neurogenesis in the Brain Ventricular-Subventricular Zone. (12 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Isabel Fariñas focuses on Neural stem cell, Cell biology, Neurogenesis, Subependymal zone and Receptor. Her research integrates issues of Neurosphere and Cellular differentiation in her study of Neural stem cell. Her Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cyclin-dependent kinase and Transcription.

Subependymal zone is a subfield of Neuroscience that Isabel Fariñas tackles. Her Neuroscience study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Regulator, Neural development and Neurotransmission. The various areas that Isabel Fariñas examines in her Receptor study include Subventricular zone, Olfactory bulb, Neuroblast and Adult stem cell.
