Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

His primary scientific interests are in Electroencephalography, Frontal lobe, Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology and Brain mapping. Many of his studies on Electroencephalography involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Prefrontal cortex. His Frontal lobe research focuses on Theta band and how it relates to Stimulus, Theta power, Theta rhythm and Novelty.

His study in Cognition and Brain activity and meditation are all subfields of Neuroscience. His Cognitive neuroscience study in the realm of Cognition connects with subjects such as Mechanism. Many of his studies on Cognitive psychology apply to Developmental psychology as well.

His most cited work include:

  • Frontal theta as a mechanism for cognitive control (912 citations)
  • Prelude to and resolution of an error: EEG phase synchrony reveals cognitive control dynamics during action monitoring (463 citations)
  • Subthalamic nucleus stimulation reverses mediofrontal influence over decision threshold (401 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Electroencephalography, Cognition, Cognitive psychology, Neuroscience and Audiology. The Electroencephalography study combines topics in areas such as Frontal lobe, Parkinson's disease, Prefrontal cortex, Brain mapping and Reinforcement learning. Theta rhythm is closely connected to Theta band in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Frontal lobe.

His research in Cognition intersects with topics in Developmental psychology and Theta activity. His Cognitive psychology study also includes fields such as

  • Punishment which connect with Affect,
  • Stimulus, which have a strong connection to Theta power. James F. Cavanagh has included themes like Flexibility and Subthalamic nucleus in his Neuroscience study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Electroencephalography (58.82%)
  • Cognition (45.88%)
  • Cognitive psychology (32.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Electroencephalography (58.82%)
  • Audiology (22.35%)
  • Cognition (45.88%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Electroencephalography, Audiology, Cognition, Parkinson's disease and Cognitive psychology. In his works, James F. Cavanagh undertakes multidisciplinary study on Electroencephalography and Repeated measures design. James F. Cavanagh interconnects Reward processing, Alpha, Dopamine and Disease in the investigation of issues within Audiology.

James F. Cavanagh studied Cognition and Rhythm that intersect with Gait. His Parkinson's disease study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Efficient algorithm, Diagnostic accuracy, Artificial intelligence and Pattern recognition. His Valence study, which is part of a larger body of work in Cognitive psychology, is frequently linked to Action selection, Controllability and Arbitration, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Alcohol exposure in utero disrupts cortico-striatal coordination required for behavioral flexibility. (14 citations)
  • Frontal theta and beta oscillations during lower-limb movement in Parkinson’s disease (13 citations)
  • An EEG marker of reward processing is diminished in Parkinson's disease. (7 citations)
