Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Deoxyglucose, Glucose utilization and Metabolism. His Posterior pituitary study in the realm of Internal medicine interacts with subjects such as Veratridine. His Stimulation, Central nervous system and Carbohydrate metabolism study in the realm of Endocrinology interacts with subjects such as Subthalamic nucleus.

His Carbohydrate metabolism research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hexokinase, Medial geniculate body, Influx Constant and Cytoarchitecture. His study looks at the relationship between Deoxyglucose and topics such as 14c deoxyglucose, which overlap with Orientation column, Geniculate body and Macaque. His Metabolism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Alcohol, Kidney and Energy metabolism.

His most cited work include:

  • The [14C]deoxyglucose method for the measurement of local cerebral glucose utilization: theory, procedure, and normal values in the conscious and anesthetized albino rat. (5531 citations)
  • Measurement of local cerebral blood flow with iodo [14C] antipyrine (800 citations)
  • RELATION BETWEEN PHYSIOLOGICAL FUNCTION AND ENERGY METABOLISM IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM (691 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Deoxyglucose, Biochemistry and Glucose utilization. His Internal medicine study typically links adjacent topics like Cardiology. His Central nervous system, Stimulation, Carbohydrate metabolism, Hormone and Cerebral cortex study are his primary interests in Endocrinology.

His Central nervous system research includes themes of Energy metabolism and Nervous system. His Deoxyglucose research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hypoglycemia, 14c deoxyglucose and Striate cortex. His Metabolism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hexose and Enzyme.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (48.78%)
  • Endocrinology (46.69%)
  • Deoxyglucose (25.09%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2017)?

  • Internal medicine (48.78%)
  • Endocrinology (46.69%)
  • Cerebral blood flow (15.68%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Cerebral blood flow, Stimulation and Neuroscience. His work in Central nervous system, Thyroid hormone receptor, Deoxyglucose, Metabolism and Receptor are all subfields of Internal medicine research. His study looks at the intersection of Deoxyglucose and topics like Nuclear medicine with Statistical physics.

Sensory stimulation therapy, Astrocyte, Glycolysis, Carbohydrate metabolism and Glucose utilization are the primary areas of interest in his Endocrinology study. The concepts of his Cerebral blood flow study are interwoven with issues in Hemodynamics, Cerebellar cortex, Cortex and Pharmacology. His Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Cerebral metabolism and Energy metabolism.

Between 1997 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Energetics of Functional Activation in Neural Tissues (247 citations)
  • Functional mapping of the primate auditory system. (206 citations)
  • Dichloroacetate effects on glucose and lactate oxidation by neurons and astroglia in vitro and on glucose utilization by brain in vivo (204 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Stimulation, Glucose utilization and Cerebral blood flow. Internal medicine and Biophysics are commonly linked in his work. Metabolism and Carbohydrate metabolism are subfields of Endocrinology in which his conducts study.

His study in the field of Sensory stimulation therapy is also linked to topics like Veratridine. His studies in Glucose utilization integrate themes in fields like Functional Brain Imaging, Cerebral metabolism and Isoflurane. In his study, Anesthesia, Sensory cortex, Reflex, Chloralose and Caudate nucleus is inextricably linked to Barrel cortex, which falls within the broad field of Cerebral blood flow.
