Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Neuroscience, Neurotrophic factors and Nerve growth factor. Internal medicine is closely attributed to Neuron in his work. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Monoamine neurotransmitter and Axon, Anatomy.

His Anatomy research incorporates themes from Locus coeruleus and Reflex. Lars Olson has researched Neurotrophic factors in several fields, including Messenger RNA, Neurotrophin and Cell biology. His work deals with themes such as Cerebral cortex, Alzheimer's disease and Cholinergic, Cholinergic neuron, which intersect with Nerve growth factor.

His most cited work include:

  • Ascending Monoamine Neurons to the Telencephalon and Diencephalon (1148 citations)
  • Protection and repair of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system by GDNF in vivo (1023 citations)
  • Dopamine neuron agenesis in Nurr1-deficient mice. (946 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Neuroscience, Anatomy and Central nervous system. The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as In situ hybridization and Cell biology. His Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Monoamine neurotransmitter and Neurotrophin.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Neurotrophic factors and Receptor in addition to Neuroscience. His Anatomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pathology, Locus coeruleus, Transplantation and Spinal cord. His studies in Dopamine integrate themes in fields like Parkinson's disease and Midbrain.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (37.62%)
  • Endocrinology (36.24%)
  • Neuroscience (32.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (32.28%)
  • Dopamine (15.45%)
  • Internal medicine (37.62%)

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

Lars Olson focuses on Neuroscience, Dopamine, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Striatum. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Synaptic plasticity, Denervation and Nogo Receptor 1. His Dopamine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mitochondrion, Parkinson's disease, Reuptake and Midbrain.

His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Anesthesia and Oncology. His work carried out in the field of Endocrinology brings together such families of science as Messenger RNA and Serotonin. As part of the same scientific family, Lars Olson usually focuses on Striatum, concentrating on Glutamate receptor and intersecting with Anatomy.

Between 2006 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Nurr1 Is Required for Maintenance of Maturing and Adult Midbrain Dopamine Neurons (273 citations)
  • Impaired mitochondrial transport and Parkin-independent degeneration of respiratory chain-deficient dopamine neurons in vivo (216 citations)
  • Germline mitochondrial DNA mutations aggravate ageing and can impair brain development (176 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron

Lars Olson spends much of his time researching Dopamine, Neuroscience, Mitochondrion, Striatum and Genetics. Internal medicine and Endocrinology are the two main areas of interest in his Dopamine studies. His Internal medicine research includes elements of NDUFS4, Electron Transport Complex I and Mitochondrial respiratory chain.

His work deals with themes such as RNA, Post-transcriptional regulation and Protein Deglycase DJ-1, which intersect with Endocrinology. His Neuroscience study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nogo Receptor 1, Parkinson's disease and Anatomy. His Striatum research includes themes of Glutamate receptor, Basal ganglia, In situ hybridization and Substantia nigra.
