Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neurotransmitter
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron

Marisa Roberto mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Amygdala, GABAergic and Neuroscience. As part of her studies on Endocrinology, Marisa Roberto often connects relevant subjects like Glutamatergic. Her work carried out in the field of Amygdala brings together such families of science as NMDA receptor, Slice preparation and GABAA receptor.

The concepts of her GABAergic study are interwoven with issues in Ethanol and gamma-Aminobutyric acid. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Alcohol dependence and Microdialysis. Her work deals with themes such as Long-term potentiation, Alcohol exposure, Ethanol exposure and Postsynaptic potential, which intersect with Neuroscience.

Her most cited work include:

  • Ethanol increases GABAergic transmission at both pre- and postsynaptic sites in rat central amygdala neurons (293 citations)
  • Acute and chronic ethanol alter glutamatergic transmission in rat central amygdala: an in vitro and in vivo analysis. (258 citations)
  • Corticotropin releasing factor-induced amygdala gamma-aminobutyric Acid release plays a key role in alcohol dependence. (244 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Amygdala, Neuroscience and Pharmacology. Her research integrates issues of Alcohol and Alcohol dependence in her study of Internal medicine. Her Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nociceptin receptor and gamma-Aminobutyric acid.

Marisa Roberto interconnects Ethanol, Receptor, Glutamatergic and Electrophysiology in the investigation of issues within Amygdala. The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Glutamate receptor, Long-term potentiation and Synaptic plasticity. The study incorporates disciplines such as AM251, Postsynaptic potential, Neurotransmission and GABAA receptor in addition to Inhibitory postsynaptic potential.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (42.76%)
  • Endocrinology (42.07%)
  • Amygdala (37.93%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (42.76%)
  • Endocrinology (42.07%)
  • Alcohol use disorder (11.03%)

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

Marisa Roberto mostly deals with Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Alcohol use disorder, Amygdala and Alcohol dependence. Her study brings together the fields of Approved drug and Internal medicine. Her study in Endocrinology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Receptor, Antagonist and Abstinence.

Her Alcohol use disorder study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Agonist, Pharmacology, Clinical psychology and Anxiety. Her Amygdala research integrates issues from Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, GABAergic, Neurotransmission and GABAA receptor. Her Neuroscience research includes themes of Glutamate receptor and Microglia.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Oxytocin blocks enhanced motivation for alcohol in alcohol dependence and blocks alcohol effects on GABAergic transmission in the central amygdala (34 citations)
  • IL-1β expression is increased and regulates GABA transmission following chronic ethanol in mouse central amygdala. (13 citations)
  • Synaptic adaptations in the central amygdala and hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus associated with protracted ethanol abstinence in male rhesus monkeys (11 citations)

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

  • Neurotransmitter
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Central nucleus of the amygdala, Amygdala, Neuroscience, Neurotransmission and Glutamate receptor. Her research combines Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Amygdala. Her GABAergic, Insular cortex and Insula study in the realm of Neuroscience connects with subjects such as Irritability.

Her Neurotransmission research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Neuropeptide, Microglia, Electrophysiology and Pharmacology. Her study on Glutamate receptor is covered under Internal medicine. Her Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Abstinence and Fatty acid amide hydrolase.
