Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Dopamine

Her primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Substantia nigra, Muscimol, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. Her Neuroscience research incorporates elements of Glutamate receptor, Pharmacology and GABAA receptor. Her study in Substantia nigra is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Basal ganglia, Striatum, Forebrain and GABAergic.

Her Muscimol research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Anticonvulsant, gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Basolateral amygdala and Developmental psychology. Endocrinology is closely attributed to Bicuculline in her study. Her Bicuculline research includes elements of Kynurenate, Convulsant, Midbrain tegmentum and Epilepsy.

Her most cited work include:

  • Substantia nigra: site of anticonvulsant activity mediated by gamma-aminobutyric acid. (555 citations)
  • A crucial epileptogenic site in the deep prepiriform cortex (349 citations)
  • Spinal cord contusion in the rat: Behavioral analysis of functional neurologic impairment (332 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Substantia nigra and Bicuculline. Her Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Kainic acid and Muscimol, GABAA receptor. Her study looks at the relationship between Endocrinology and fields such as Nerve growth factor, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Her work on Stimulation as part of general Internal medicine research is frequently linked to Basic fibroblast growth factor, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Superior colliculus, gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Striatum and GABAergic. The study incorporates disciplines such as Anticonvulsant, Epilepsy, Convulsant and Pharmacology in addition to Bicuculline.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (46.45%)
  • Endocrinology (39.35%)
  • Internal medicine (39.35%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2010-2015)?

  • Neuroscience (46.45%)
  • Phenobarbital (6.45%)
  • Epilepsy (23.23%)

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

Neuroscience, Phenobarbital, Epilepsy, Pharmacology and Muscimol are her primary areas of study. The concepts of her Neuroscience study are interwoven with issues in Bicuculline and GABAA receptor. Her Phenobarbital study is focused on Internal medicine in general.

Her research integrates issues of Brain damage and Endocrinology, Adult male in her study of Epilepsy. Her work deals with themes such as Anticonvulsant, Pentylenetetrazol, Neurotoxicity and Apoptosis, which intersect with Pharmacology. Her research in Muscimol intersects with topics in Analysis of variance, Basolateral amygdala, Developmental psychology, Extinction and Basal ganglia.

Between 2010 and 2015, her most popular works were:

  • Transient Inactivation of Orbitofrontal Cortex Blocks Reinforcer Devaluation in Macaques (102 citations)
  • Neonatal exposure to antiepileptic drugs disrupts striatal synaptic development. (91 citations)
  • The piriform, perirhinal, and entorhinal cortex in seizure generation (83 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Neurotransmitter

Karen Gale mostly deals with Phenobarbital, Neuroscience, Pharmacology, Neurotoxicity and Piriform cortex. Karen Gale has included themes like Anesthesia, Prepulse inhibition, Phenytoin and Physiology in her Phenobarbital study. The various areas that Karen Gale examines in her Neuroscience study include Developmental psychology and GABAA receptor, Muscimol.

Karen Gale works in the field of GABAA receptor, focusing on Bicuculline in particular. Her work on Drug as part of general Pharmacology research is often related to Sodium channel blocker, thus linking different fields of science. Her Piriform cortex research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Seizure activity, Epileptogenesis, Temporal lobe, Epilepsy and Entorhinal cortex.
