What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Neuroscience
- Central nervous system
- Anatomy
John K. Harting mainly investigates Neuroscience, Anatomy, Superior colliculus, Geniculate and Reticular formation.
Neuroscience is a component of his Pretectal area, Ventral anterior nucleus, Optic tract, Thalamus and Koniocellular cell studies.
His work carried out in the field of Anatomy brings together such families of science as Intraocular Injections, Retina and Cortex.
His research investigates the connection between Superior colliculus and topics such as Sensory system that intersect with problems in Cerebellum, Retrograde tracing and Axon.
His research in Reticular formation intersects with topics in Trigeminal nerve, Tegmentum, Inferior colliculus and Spinal cord.
His Nucleus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Spinal accessory nucleus and Tectospinal tract.
His most cited work include:
- The Mammalian Superior Colliculus: Studies of Its Morphology and Connections (469 citations)
- Descending pathways from the superior collicullus: an autoradiographic analysis in the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta). (410 citations)
- Ascending pathways from the monkey superior colliculus: an autoradiographic analysis. (364 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Anatomy, Neuroscience, Superior colliculus, Axoplasmic transport and Lateral geniculate nucleus.
His research integrates issues of Nucleus, Geniculate and Spinal cord in his study of Anatomy.
His work deals with themes such as Koniocellular cell and Visual system, which intersect with Geniculate.
His study in Thalamus, Squirrel monkey, Basal ganglia, Sensory system and Retrograde tracing are all subfields of Neuroscience.
His Superior colliculus research integrates issues from Central nervous system, Retina, Optic tract, Dorsum and Pretectal area.
As part of one scientific family, John K. Harting deals mainly with the area of Inferior olivary complex, narrowing it down to issues related to the Medulla, and often Spinal accessory nucleus.
He most often published in these fields:
- Anatomy (87.76%)
- Neuroscience (85.71%)
- Superior colliculus (79.59%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1996-2006)?
- Neuroscience (85.71%)
- Anatomy (87.76%)
- Superior colliculus (79.59%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Neuroscience, Anatomy, Superior colliculus, Thalamus and Putamen.
While working on this project, John K. Harting studies both Neuroscience and Head movements.
His work in Ultrastructure and Ventral anterior nucleus is related to Anatomy.
His Thalamus research incorporates elements of Cerebral cortex and Owl monkey, Primate.
John K. Harting interconnects Oculomotor nucleus and Caudate nucleus in the investigation of issues within Putamen.
John K. Harting has included themes like Reticular activating system, Thalamic reticular nucleus, Nucleus, Reticular formation and Reticular connective tissue in his Cortex study.
Between 1996 and 2006, his most popular works were:
- Structure and connections of the thalamic reticular nucleus: Advancing views over half a century (140 citations)
- Corticocortical communication via the thalamus: ultrastructural studies of corticothalamic projections from area 17 to the lateral posterior nucleus of the cat and inferior pulvinar nucleus of the owl monkey. (57 citations)
- The visual-oculomotor striatum of the cat: functional relationship to the superior colliculus. (44 citations)
