Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

Lauri Nummenmaa mostly deals with Cognitive psychology, Perception, Neuroscience, Cognition and Insula. His Cognitive psychology research includes elements of Visual attention, Gaze, Communication, Visual perception and Eye movement. The Communication study which covers Social perception that intersects with Biological motion, Superior temporal sulcus, Set and Motion.

His research integrates issues of Stimulus and Facial expression in his study of Perception. His works in Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Striatum are all subjects of inquiry into Neuroscience. Lauri Nummenmaa has included themes like Brain activity and meditation, Valence, Prefrontal cortex and Amygdala in his Insula study.

His most cited work include:

  • Bodily maps of emotions (336 citations)
  • Eye movement assessment of selective attentional capture by emotional pictures. (306 citations)
  • Neural mechanisms of social attention (294 citations)

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

His main research concerns Cognitive psychology, Neuroscience, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Internal medicine and Brain activity and meditation. His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Visual perception, Perception, Communication, Cognition and Eye movement. His Perception research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Facial expression and Priming.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Gaze and Social perception in addition to Communication. The various areas that Lauri Nummenmaa examines in his Functional magnetic resonance imaging study include Audiology, Prefrontal cortex, Brain mapping and Amygdala. His study explores the link between Internal medicine and topics such as Endocrinology that cross with problems in Carfentanil.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (37.34%)
  • Neuroscience (30.47%)
  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (32.19%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (32.19%)
  • Brain activity and meditation (18.45%)
  • Amygdala (18.03%)

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

Lauri Nummenmaa spends much of his time researching Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Brain activity and meditation, Amygdala, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. His studies in Functional magnetic resonance imaging integrate themes in fields like Cognitive psychology, Orbitofrontal cortex and Audiology. His work in Cognitive psychology tackles topics such as Insula which are related to areas like Motor cortex.

Lauri Nummenmaa has researched Amygdala in several fields, including Precuneus, Prefrontal cortex and Sensory system. His research in Endocrinology intersects with topics in Opioid receptor, Opioid and Mood. In his research, Thalamus and Stimulus is intimately related to Alertness, which falls under the overarching field of Neuroscience.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Interindividual variability and lateralization of μ-opioid receptors in the human brain (10 citations)
  • Lowered endogenous mu-opioid receptor availability in subclinical depression and anxiety (9 citations)
  • Lowered endogenous mu-opioid receptor availability in subclinical depression and anxiety (9 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroimaging, Amygdala, Brain activity and meditation, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Positron emission tomography. Lauri Nummenmaa combines subjects such as Binding potential, Magnetic resonance imaging, Voxel and Grey matter with his study of Neuroimaging. His Amygdala study incorporates themes from Lateralization of brain function, Nucleus accumbens and Precuneus.

His Brain activity and meditation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Somatosensory system, Audiology and Social cognition. His Functional magnetic resonance imaging research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cognitive psychology, Insula, Auditory cortex, Motor control and Motor cortex. His study focuses on the intersection of Positron emission tomography and fields such as Control subjects with connections in the field of Artificial intelligence and Pattern recognition.
