Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Dopamine
  • Neuroscience

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Developmental psychology, Neurochemical and Neuroscience. His study in Endocrinology concentrates on Dopamine, Nucleus accumbens, Stria terminalis, Estrogen and Hypothalamus. His Nucleus accumbens study combines topics in areas such as Basal ganglia and Microdialysis.

He undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Internal medicine and Chemistry in his work. His research integrates issues of Ejaculation, Animal sexual behaviour, Brain activation, Male rats and Sexual arousal in his study of Developmental psychology. His study in Neurochemical is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Flibanserin, Experimental Animal Models and Endogenous opioid, Opioid.

His most cited work include:

  • Summary of the recommendations on sexual dysfunctions in men (879 citations)
  • REVIEWS: Pathways of Sexual Desire (426 citations)
  • Sexual behavior enhances central dopamine transmission in the male rat. (368 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Developmental psychology, Ejaculation and Ovariectomized rat. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Sensitization and Sexual desire. His study in Endocrinology focuses on Estradiol benzoate, Hypothalamus, Stimulation, Dopamine and Hormone.

His Dopamine research is classified as research in Neuroscience. He focuses mostly in the field of Developmental psychology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Sexual arousal and, in certain cases, Sexual stimulation. His work carried out in the field of Ejaculation brings together such families of science as Oxytocin and Odor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (43.72%)
  • Endocrinology (42.21%)
  • Developmental psychology (22.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (43.72%)
  • Endocrinology (42.21%)
  • Estradiol benzoate (17.09%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Estradiol benzoate, Sexual desire and Ovariectomized rat. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Sexual inhibition and Odor. His Endocrinology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Classical conditioning.

James G. Pfaus interconnects Psychotherapist, Sexual arousal and Testosterone in the investigation of issues within Sexual desire. His Ovariectomized rat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Stimulation and Sensitization. His Dopamine research includes themes of Preoptic area and Serotonin.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder: International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health (ISSWSH) Expert Consensus Panel Review (79 citations)
  • Viewing Sexual Stimuli Associated with Greater Sexual Responsiveness, Not Erectile Dysfunction (76 citations)
  • The Female Sexual Response: Current Models, Neurobiological Underpinnings and Agents Currently Approved or Under Investigation for the Treatment of Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (60 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Dopamine
  • Psychiatry

His primary areas of study are Developmental psychology, Clinical psychology, Internal medicine, Sexual arousal and Sexual orientation. His work deals with themes such as Orgasm and Testosterone, which intersect with Developmental psychology. His research on Orgasm also deals with topics like

  • Neurochemical most often made with reference to Ejaculation,
  • Pleasure which intersects with area such as Clitoris, Cognitive psychology, Arousal and Vagina.

His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Efficacy. His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Classical conditioning and Anticipation. His Sexual arousal study incorporates themes from Placebo, Female sexual dysfunction and Sexual inhibition.
