Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Dopamine

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Prepulse inhibition, Neuroscience, Psychosis, Moro reflex and Schizophrenia. Mark A. Geyer has included themes like Endocrinology, Dopamine, Startle response, Internal medicine and Gating in his Prepulse inhibition study. His Endocrinology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Agonist and Receptor.

His Neuroscience study incorporates themes from Serotonergic and Pharmacology. His Psychosis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cognitive disorder, Audiology and Sensory gating. The study incorporates disciplines such as Striatum, Neurochemical and Habituation in addition to Moro reflex.

His most cited work include:

  • Human studies of prepulse inhibition of startle: normal subjects, patient groups, and pharmacological studies. (1528 citations)
  • Pharmacological studies of prepulse inhibition models of sensorimotor gating deficits in schizophrenia: a decade in review. (1293 citations)
  • Sensorimotor Gating and Schizophrenia: Human and Animal Model Studies (1200 citations)

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

Neuroscience, Prepulse inhibition, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Pharmacology are his primary areas of study. Sensory gating, Gating, Bipolar disorder, Mania and Stimulus are the core of his Neuroscience study. The Prepulse inhibition study combines topics in areas such as Habituation, Psychosis, Startle response and Moro reflex.

Mark A. Geyer interconnects Developmental psychology and Audiology in the investigation of issues within Moro reflex. His studies examine the connections between Endocrinology and genetics, as well as such issues in Serotonin, with regards to MDMA. His Pharmacology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agonist, Amphetamine, Antagonist and Phencyclidine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (45.36%)
  • Prepulse inhibition (37.75%)
  • Internal medicine (28.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (45.36%)
  • Bipolar disorder (17.35%)
  • Cognition (17.50%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Bipolar disorder, Cognition, Psychiatry and Clinical psychology. His research integrates issues of Prepulse inhibition and Schizophrenia in his study of Neuroscience. His work in Prepulse inhibition is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Moro reflex.

His biological study deals with issues like Dopamine transporter, which deal with fields such as Lithium and Impulsivity. His Cognition research includes themes of Arousal, Polymorphism, Vigilance, Developmental psychology and Cannabis. He has researched Psychiatry in several fields, including Extinction and Longitudinal study.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genomic predictors of combat stress vulnerability and resilience in U.S. Marines: A genome-wide association study across multiple ancestries implicates PRTFDC1 as a potential PTSD gene. (110 citations)
  • Sensorimotor gating of the startle reflex: what we said 25 years ago, what has happened since then, and what comes next. (87 citations)
  • Sensorimotor gating of the startle reflex: what we said 25 years ago, what has happened since then, and what comes next. (87 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Dopamine
  • Neuroscience

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Psychiatry, Bipolar disorder, Cognition and Schizophrenia. His Neuroscience research integrates issues from Hallucinogen, Prepulse inhibition and Receptor. His work carried out in the field of Prepulse inhibition brings together such families of science as Neurochemical, Brain circuitry and Sensory gating.

His Bipolar disorder research incorporates elements of Developmental psychology, Dopamine transporter, Dopamine and Arousal. The concepts of his Cognition study are interwoven with issues in Sleep deprivation, Wakefulness, Vigilance and Audiology. Mark A. Geyer combines subjects such as Valence, Model organism, Anhedonia, Mental illness and Clinical psychology with his study of Schizophrenia.
