Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Artificial intelligence

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cognitive psychology, Action, Neuroscience, Distraction and Unexpected events. His Cognitive psychology study combines topics in areas such as Developmental psychology and Consciousness. Jan R. Wessel performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Action and Perception via his papers.

In the subject of general Neuroscience, his work in Electroencephalography is often linked to Midcingulate cortex, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His research integrates issues of Response inhibition and Inhibitory control in his study of Electroencephalography. The Distraction study combines topics in areas such as Working memory, Cognition and Transcranial magnetic stimulation.

His most cited work include:

  • Conscious perception of errors and its relation to the anterior insula (319 citations)
  • A consensus guide to capturing the ability to inhibit actions and impulsive behaviors in the stop-signal task (270 citations)
  • On the Globality of Motor Suppression: Unexpected Events and Their Influence on Behavior and Cognition (169 citations)

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

Jan R. Wessel focuses on Neuroscience, Electroencephalography, Unexpected events, Inhibitory control and Cognition. His Neuroscience study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Surprise. His study in Surprise is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Working memory and Perception.

His Electroencephalography research integrates issues from Developmental psychology, Visual perception, Independent component analysis and Motor control. In his works, Jan R. Wessel performs multidisciplinary study on Unexpected events and Action. He has researched Inhibitory control in several fields, including Stimulus and Social psychology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (102.63%)
  • Electroencephalography (55.26%)
  • Unexpected events (36.84%)

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

  • Neuroscience (102.63%)
  • Stimulus (35.53%)
  • Inhibitory control (35.53%)

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

Jan R. Wessel spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Stimulus, Inhibitory control, Motor system and Unexpected events. He incorporates Neuroscience and Context in his research. His Stimulus study frequently links to related topics such as Electroencephalography.

His work in the fields of Electroencephalography, such as Sensorimotor Areas, intersects with other areas such as Stop signal, Movement, Female humans and Dynamics. His Motor control research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Neurophysiology, Attentional blink, Cognitive flexibility, Working memory and Visual perception. His Event-related potential research includes themes of Transcranial magnetic stimulation and Primary motor cortex.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • β-Bursts Reveal the Trial-to-Trial Dynamics of Movement Initiation and Cancellation. (27 citations)
  • Common neural processes during action-stopping and infrequent stimulus detection: The frontocentral P3 as an index of generic motor inhibition. (17 citations)
  • Paired-pulse TMS and scalp EEG reveal systematic relationship between inhibitory GABAa signaling in M1 and fronto-central cortical activity during action stopping. (3 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Artificial intelligence

Jan R. Wessel mainly investigates Neuroscience, Motor control, Electroencephalography, Stimulus detection and Event-related potential. His study in Motor system and Sensorimotor Areas is carried out as part of his studies in Neuroscience. Jan R. Wessel integrates many fields, such as Motor control and engineering, in his works.
