Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron

Kei Ito mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Mushroom bodies, Kenyon cell, Cell biology and Drosophila melanogaster. He interconnects Cognitive science and Drosophila in the investigation of issues within Neuroscience. His study in Mushroom bodies is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Olfactory system and Anatomy.

His work deals with themes such as Neuropil and Olfactory Learning, which intersect with Olfactory system. His studies in Anatomy integrate themes in fields like Olfaction, Antennal lobe and Drosophila. His Cell biology research integrates issues from Embryonic stem cell, Ventral nerve cord and MARCM.

His most cited work include:

  • The Drosophila mushroom body is a quadruple structure of clonal units each of which contains a virtually identical set of neurones and glial cells (711 citations)
  • Evolution, discovery, and interpretations of arthropod mushroom bodies. (455 citations)
  • Evolution, discovery, and interpretations of arthropod mushroom bodies. (455 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Mushroom bodies, Anatomy, Drosophila melanogaster and Cell biology. His Neuroscience study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Drosophila. He works in the field of Mushroom bodies, namely Kenyon cell.

His Axon, Lobe and Ganglion study, which is part of a larger body of work in Anatomy, is frequently linked to Model system, bridging the gap between disciplines. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Campaniform sensilla, Motor control, Artificial intelligence, Protocerebrum and Ventral nerve cord. His Cell biology research incorporates elements of Genetics, Embryonic stem cell and Ectopic expression.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (63.03%)
  • Mushroom bodies (39.50%)
  • Anatomy (25.21%)

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

  • Drosophila melanogaster (26.05%)
  • Neuroscience (63.03%)
  • Biological neural network (22.69%)

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

Kei Ito mostly deals with Drosophila melanogaster, Neuroscience, Biological neural network, Artificial intelligence and Cell type. The concepts of his Drosophila melanogaster study are interwoven with issues in Campaniform sensilla and Motor control. In his research on the topic of Motor control, Mushroom bodies is strongly related with Machine learning.

In his work, Compartment and Dopamine is strongly intertwined with Reinforcement, which is a subfield of Neuroscience. His Biological neural network research focuses on Projection and how it connects with Protocerebrum, Auditory system and Auditory information. His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Auditory pathways and Cell biology.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A Connectome of the Adult Drosophila Central Brain (94 citations)
  • A Connectome of the Adult Drosophila Central Brain (94 citations)
  • Organization of projection neurons and local neurons of the primary auditory center in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. (40 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron

His primary areas of investigation include Biological neural network, Drosophila melanogaster, Cell type, Synapse and Neuroscience. His Biological neural network study combines topics in areas such as Projection and Auditory information. Kei Ito has researched Cell type in several fields, including Associative learning, Structure, Motor control and Artificial intelligence.

The various areas that Kei Ito examines in his Synapse study include Machine learning, Mushroom bodies and Cell. His Anatomy research extends to Neuroscience, which is thematically connected.
