Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Hippocampus
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Memory consolidation, Hippocampal formation and Long-term memory. He combines subjects such as NMDA receptor, Glutamate receptor and Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor with his study of Neuroscience. His Hippocampus research includes themes of AMPA receptor, Long-term potentiation, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Amygdala.

His Memory consolidation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Synaptic plasticity, Anisomycin, Protein kinase A, Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and Extinction. He has included themes like CREB, Phosphorylation and Lactacystin in his Hippocampal formation study. His Long-term memory research incorporates elements of Memory persistence, Short-term memory, Prefrontal cortex, Associative learning and Engram.

His most cited work include:

  • Memory formation: the sequence of biochemical events in the hippocampus and its connection to activity in other brain structures. (853 citations)
  • Persistence of Long-Term Memory Storage Requires a Late Protein Synthesis- and BDNF- Dependent Phase in the Hippocampus (489 citations)
  • BDNF is essential to promote persistence of long-term memory storage. (467 citations)

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

Jorge H. Medina spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Memory consolidation, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Neuroscience, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase is strongly linked to NMDA receptor. Jorge H. Medina interconnects Memoria, Glutamate receptor, Hippocampal formation, Long-term potentiation and Amygdala in the investigation of issues within Hippocampus.

He has researched Hippocampal formation in several fields, including Amnesia and MAPK/ERK pathway. His studies deal with areas such as Synaptic plasticity, Anisomycin, Protein kinase A, Basolateral amygdala and Extinction as well as Memory consolidation. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Receptor, Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, Antagonist and GABAA receptor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (61.01%)
  • Hippocampus (59.43%)
  • Memory consolidation (32.70%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (61.01%)
  • Hippocampus (59.43%)
  • Memory consolidation (32.70%)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Memory consolidation, Long-term memory and Hippocampal formation. His study in Prefrontal cortex, Dopamine, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Amygdala and Basolateral amygdala are all subfields of Neuroscience. His research in Hippocampus intersects with topics in Neocortex, Memory processing, Ventral tegmental area, Long-term potentiation and Engram.

His studies in Memory consolidation integrate themes in fields like Memoria, PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, Mnemonic and Spatial memory. Jorge H. Medina interconnects Neurotrophic factors and Short-term memory in the investigation of issues within Long-term memory. His Hippocampal formation research integrates issues from Blockade and Protein kinase A.

Between 2006 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Persistence of Long-Term Memory Storage Requires a Late Protein Synthesis- and BDNF- Dependent Phase in the Hippocampus (489 citations)
  • BDNF is essential to promote persistence of long-term memory storage. (467 citations)
  • Dopamine Controls Persistence of Long-Term Memory Storage (328 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

Jorge H. Medina mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Memory consolidation, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation and Long-term memory. His Neuroscience study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Gene expression. His Memory consolidation research includes elements of Synaptic plasticity, Impaired memory, Recognition memory, PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and Engram.

His research integrates issues of Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Dopaminergic, Ventral tegmental area and Neurotrophin in his study of Hippocampus. His research in Hippocampal formation tackles topics such as Mnemonic which are related to areas like Memoria and MRNA synthesis. While the research belongs to areas of Long-term memory, Jorge H. Medina spends his time largely on the problem of Neurotrophic factors, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Associative learning.
