- Neuroscience (55.75%)
- Optogenetics (22.57%)
- Cell biology (23.45%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Optogenetics, Cell biology, Astrocyte and Hippocampus.
His study explores the link between Neuroscience and topics such as Serotonin that cross with problems in Dopamine.
Kenji F. Tanaka combines subjects such as Loss function, Substantia nigra, Medium spiny neuron, Cerebral blood flow and Dorsal raphe nucleus with his study of Optogenetics.
His work in Dorsal raphe nucleus covers topics such as 5-HT1A receptor which are related to areas like Endocrinology.
His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Microgliosis, Oligodendrocyte and Channelrhodopsin.
In his work, Sleep in non-human animals, Eye movement and Hypothalamus is strongly intertwined with Pons, which is a subfield of Astrocyte.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Serotonin-mediated inhibition of ventral hippocampus is required for sustained goal-directed behavior. (21 citations)
- Different roles of distinct serotonergic pathways in anxiety-like behavior, antidepressant-like, and anti-impulsive effects (19 citations)
- Essential role of microglial transforming growth factor-β1 in antidepressant actions of (R)-ketamine and the novel antidepressant TGF-β1. (17 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Gene
- Internal medicine
