Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Endocrinology

Kevin Fox focuses on Neuroscience, Barrel cortex, Somatosensory system, Anatomy and Visual cortex. His research integrates issues of NMDA receptor, Long-term potentiation and Developmental plasticity in his study of Neuroscience. His NMDA receptor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Glutamate receptor and Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

Kevin Fox frequently studies issues relating to Synaptic plasticity and Barrel cortex. His work in Anatomy addresses issues such as Postsynaptic potential, which are connected to fields such as Glutamate receptor antagonist and Ocular dominance column. His studies deal with areas such as Bridge and Neuroplasticity as well as Cortex.

His most cited work include:

  • Mutant Mice and Neuroscience: Recommendations Concerning Genetic Background (427 citations)
  • Flow of excitation within rat barrel cortex on striking a single vibrissa. (384 citations)
  • A critical period for experience-dependent synaptic plasticity in rat barrel cortex (370 citations)

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

Kevin Fox mainly investigates Neuroscience, Barrel cortex, Long-term potentiation, Neuroplasticity and Synaptic plasticity. The concepts of his Neuroscience study are interwoven with issues in NMDA receptor and Developmental plasticity. His Barrel cortex study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Neocortex, Receptive field and Cortex.

His Long-term potentiation study also includes

  • Hippocampus which intersects with area such as Cerebral cortex and AMPA receptor,
  • Depression most often made with reference to Stimulation. His Neuroplasticity research includes elements of Metaplasticity, Synaptic scaling, Dendritic spine, Hippocampal formation and Premovement neuronal activity. The various areas that Kevin Fox examines in his Visual cortex study include Endocrinology, Electrophysiology and Kitten.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (92.59%)
  • Barrel cortex (53.70%)
  • Long-term potentiation (29.63%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (92.59%)
  • Neuroplasticity (27.78%)
  • Barrel cortex (53.70%)

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

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Neuroplasticity, Barrel cortex, Long-term potentiation and Synaptic scaling. The study incorporates disciplines such as Synaptic plasticity, Metaplasticity and Homeostatic plasticity in addition to Neuroscience. His work in Neuroplasticity covers topics such as Hippocampal formation which are related to areas like Cognition.

His Barrel cortex study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dendritic spine, Sensory deprivation and Receptive field. In his study, Nitric oxide synthase and NOS1 is inextricably linked to Neocortex, which falls within the broad field of Long-term potentiation. As a member of one scientific family, Kevin Fox mostly works in the field of Somatosensory system, focusing on Sensory system and, on occasion, Stimulus.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The role of nitric oxide in pre-synaptic plasticity and homeostasis (138 citations)
  • Integrating Hebbian and homeostatic plasticity: the current state of the field and future research directions (118 citations)
  • Homeostatic plasticity mechanisms are required for juvenile, but not adult, ocular dominance plasticity (106 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Endocrinology

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Neuroplasticity, Metaplasticity, Developmental plasticity and Dendritic spine. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Long-term potentiation, Spike-timing-dependent plasticity and Synaptic scaling. Within one scientific family, Kevin Fox focuses on topics pertaining to DISC1 under Long-term potentiation, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Cerebral cortex and Synaptic plasticity.

Kevin Fox has researched Synaptic scaling in several fields, including Monocular deprivation, Homeostatic plasticity, Cognitive science and Homosynaptic plasticity. His study focuses on the intersection of Metaplasticity and fields such as Hippocampus with connections in the field of GABAergic and Glutamatergic. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Bursting, Postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Barrel cortex.
