Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Cognitive psychology, Neuroscience, Default mode network, Prefrontal cortex and Functional magnetic resonance imaging. Her Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Insula, Attentional modulation, Brain mapping and Amygdala. Many of her research projects under Neuroscience are closely connected to Meditation with Meditation, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

Her Default mode network study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mind-wandering and Creativity. The concepts of her Prefrontal cortex study are interwoven with issues in Working memory and Episodic memory. She works mostly in the field of Functional magnetic resonance imaging, limiting it down to concerns involving Cortex and, occasionally, Neuroplasticity and Secondary somatosensory cortex.

Her most cited work include:

  • Experience sampling during fMRI reveals default network and executive system contributions to mind wandering (1175 citations)
  • Dissociated neural representations of intensity and valence in human olfaction (869 citations)
  • The frontopolar cortex and human cognition: Evidence for a rostrocaudal hierarchical organization within the human prefrontal cortex. (559 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Neuroscience, Prefrontal cortex and Mind-wandering. As part of the same scientific family, Kalina Christoff usually focuses on Cognitive psychology, concentrating on Orbitofrontal cortex and intersecting with Valence. Kalina Christoff has researched Cognition in several fields, including Developmental psychology, Intraparietal sulcus, Cognitive science and Region of interest.

Her Prefrontal cortex research incorporates elements of Working memory, Superior frontal gyrus, Posterior parietal cortex and Elementary cognitive task. In her study, Consciousness is inextricably linked to Social psychology, which falls within the broad field of Mind-wandering. Her work in Default mode network covers topics such as Brain mapping which are related to areas like Neural recruitment.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (47.19%)
  • Cognition (42.70%)
  • Neuroscience (35.96%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Cognition (42.70%)
  • Mind-wandering (26.97%)
  • Neuroscience (35.96%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Cognition, Mind-wandering, Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology and Functional neuroimaging. Her research integrates issues of Empirical research and Operationalization in her study of Cognition. Her work deals with themes such as Valence, Creativity, Cognitive science, Everyday life and Psychoanalysis, which intersect with Mind-wandering.

Her work in the fields of Default mode network, Intraparietal sulcus and Inferior frontal sulcus overlaps with other areas such as Premotor cortex. Kalina Christoff has researched Cognitive psychology in several fields, including Insula, Prefrontal cortex, Orbitofrontal cortex and Feeling. Her Functional neuroimaging research includes elements of Brain activity and meditation and Cognitive neuroscience.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Mind-wandering as spontaneous thought: a dynamic framework (444 citations)
  • Functional neuroanatomy of meditation: A review and meta-analysis of 78 functional neuroimaging investigations (248 citations)
  • Heterogeneity within the frontoparietal control network and its relationship to the default and dorsal attention networks. (171 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging

Default mode network, Mind-wandering, Cognitive psychology, Neuroscience and Cognition are her primary areas of study. As part of one scientific family, she deals mainly with the area of Default mode network, narrowing it down to issues related to the Brain mapping, and often Boredom, Developmental psychology, Operationalization, Consistency and Attribution. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Neuroimaging, Creativity and Psychoanalysis.

Her Cognitive psychology study combines topics in areas such as Experience sampling method, Prefrontal cortex, Orbitofrontal cortex and Everyday life. Her Functional neuroimaging, Perception and Insula study, which is part of a larger body of work in Neuroscience, is frequently linked to Context, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her Task-positive network study in the realm of Cognition interacts with subjects such as Network dynamics.
