Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Squirrel monkey, Anatomy, Lateral geniculate nucleus and Visual cortex. When carried out as part of a general Neuroscience research project, his work on Visual system is frequently linked to work in Temporal lobe and White matter, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. In his research on the topic of Squirrel monkey, Perpendicular, Geometry and Pulvinar nuclei is strongly related with Striate cortex.

Johannes Tigges has researched Anatomy in several fields, including Cerebral cortex and Occipital lobe. In Lateral geniculate nucleus, Johannes Tigges works on issues like Nucleus, which are connected to Lateral hypothalamus. Johannes Tigges combines subjects such as Neuron type, Visual field and Cortex with his study of Visual cortex.

His most cited work include:

  • Subcortical projections, cortical associations, and some intrinsic interlaminar connections of the striate cortex in the squirrel monkey (Saimiri). (258 citations)
  • Neurobiological Bases of Age-Related Cognitive Decline in the Rhesus Monkey (255 citations)
  • Areal and laminar distribution of neurons interconnecting the central visual cortical areas 17, 18, 19, and MT in squirrel monkey (Saimiri) (197 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Anatomy, Neuroscience, Squirrel monkey, Lateral geniculate nucleus and Cerebral cortex. His studies deal with areas such as Neuropil, Central nervous system, Galago and Nucleus as well as Anatomy. His work on Superior colliculus, Primate, Visual system and Occipital lobe as part of general Neuroscience research is frequently linked to Temporal lobe, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Visual system research includes themes of Neuron type and Visual field. As a member of one scientific family, Johannes Tigges mostly works in the field of Squirrel monkey, focusing on Cortex and, on occasion, Visual cortex. His Cerebral cortex research includes elements of Lipofuscin and Brain mapping.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anatomy (80.00%)
  • Neuroscience (46.67%)
  • Squirrel monkey (28.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1994-1999)?

  • Anatomy (80.00%)
  • Nucleus (17.33%)
  • Degenerative disease (2.67%)

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

Johannes Tigges mainly focuses on Anatomy, Nucleus, Degenerative disease, Pathology and Senile plaques. The concepts of his Anatomy study are interwoven with issues in Optic tract and Thalamus. His research integrates issues of Lateral geniculate nucleus, Central nervous system and Laminar organization in his study of Thalamus.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Nucleus, Neuronal somata are connected with Process and Pituitary gland and other disciplines. Visual cortex is a subfield of Neuroscience that Johannes Tigges investigates. His Neuroscience research incorporates elements of Receptor and Biophysics.

Between 1994 and 1999, his most popular works were:

  • Neurobiological Bases of Age-Related Cognitive Decline in the Rhesus Monkey (255 citations)
  • Aβ40 is a major form of β-amyloid in nonhuman primates (93 citations)
  • β-Amyloid (Aβ) Deposition in the Brains of Aged Orangutans (91 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron
  • Pathology

Senile plaques, Pathology, Degenerative disease, White matter and Down syndrome are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Aβ peptide, β amyloid and Amyloid precursor protein as well as Senile plaques. His study of White matter brings together topics like Neuroscience, Visual cortex, Cognitive decline, Pars compacta and Prefrontal cortex.

Johannes Tigges carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Down syndrome and Senescence.
