Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron

John F. Disterhoft spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Eyeblink conditioning, Classical conditioning and Associative learning. His research integrates issues of Calcium, Nimodipine and Lesion in his study of Neuroscience. His Hippocampal formation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Synapse, Time course and Nictitating membrane.

His Eyeblink conditioning research integrates issues from Cerebellum, Cellular mechanism, Lateralization of brain function, Dorsum and Dorsal hippocampus. His study in Classical conditioning is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Stimulus, Extinction and Fear conditioning. As a part of the same scientific study, John F. Disterhoft usually deals with the Associative learning, concentrating on Long-term potentiation and frequently concerns with NMDA receptor, D-cycloserine and Partial agonist.

His most cited work include:

  • Intraneuronal beta-amyloid aggregates, neurodegeneration, and neuron loss in transgenic mice with five familial Alzheimer's disease mutations: potential factors in amyloid plaque formation. (1606 citations)
  • Hippocampectomy disrupts trace eye-blink conditioning in rabbits. (642 citations)
  • BACE1 deficiency rescues memory deficits and cholinergic dysfunction in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (496 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Eyeblink conditioning, Hippocampal formation, Hippocampus and Classical conditioning. His work deals with themes such as Synaptic plasticity and Long-term potentiation, which intersect with Neuroscience. The Eyeblink conditioning study combines topics in areas such as Electrophysiology, Audiology, Prefrontal cortex, Cognition and Stimulation.

His Hippocampal formation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fear conditioning, Calcium and Nictitating membrane. His Hippocampus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Neurotransmission and Neuron. The various areas that John F. Disterhoft examines in his Classical conditioning study include Developmental psychology, Extinction, Hippocampus and Amnesia.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (79.03%)
  • Eyeblink conditioning (44.76%)
  • Hippocampal formation (35.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (79.03%)
  • Eyeblink conditioning (44.76%)
  • Hippocampus (30.65%)

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

John F. Disterhoft focuses on Neuroscience, Eyeblink conditioning, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation and Afterhyperpolarization. His research in Neuroscience intersects with topics in Synaptic plasticity and Classical conditioning. His Eyeblink conditioning research includes themes of Memory consolidation, Entorhinal cortex, Cognition and Disease.

His studies in Hippocampus integrate themes in fields like Nerve net and Eye movement. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Neocortex, Recall and Patch clamp. He has researched Afterhyperpolarization in several fields, including SK channel and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • GLYX-13, an NMDA receptor glycine site functional partial agonist enhances cognition and produces antidepressant effects without the psychotomimetic side effects of NMDA receptor antagonists. (81 citations)
  • Aging-Related Hyperexcitability in CA3 Pyramidal Neurons Is Mediated by Enhanced A-Type K+ Channel Function and Expression (56 citations)
  • Altered calcium metabolism in aging CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons. (52 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Hippocampus, Afterhyperpolarization and NMDA receptor. His Neuroscience study incorporates themes from Eyeblink conditioning and Long-term potentiation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Neocortex, Lesion, Recall and Memory consolidation in addition to Eyeblink conditioning.

His work carried out in the field of Hippocampal formation brings together such families of science as Patch clamp and Membrane potential. His studies examine the connections between Afterhyperpolarization and genetics, as well as such issues in Excitatory postsynaptic potential, with regards to SK channel, Activator and Associative learning. His NMDA receptor research incorporates elements of Synaptic plasticity, Metaplasticity, Rapastinel, Partial agonist and Pharmacology.
