The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Neuron
Mark J. West mostly deals with Neuroscience, Stereology, Hippocampus, Neuron and Cavalieri's principle.
His work deals with themes such as Machine learning, Cognitive science and Artificial intelligence, which intersect with Neuroscience.
His Stereology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sampling, Somatostatin, In situ hybridization and Molecular neuroscience.
His studies deal with areas such as Hippocampal formation, Gene, Human brain, Cell biology and Alzheimer's disease as well as Hippocampus.
His Hippocampal formation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Senescence and Central nervous system.
In his study, Sampling scheme and Biological system is strongly linked to Systematic sampling, which falls under the umbrella field of Cavalieri's principle.
His most cited work include:
- Unbiased stereological estimation of the total number of neurons in the subdivisions of the rat hippocampus using the optical fractionator (2678 citations)
- The new stereological tools: disector, fractionator, nucleator and point-sampled intercepts and their use in pathological research and diagnosis (2241 citations)
- Unbiased stereological estimation of the number of neurons in the human hippocampus (1029 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Mark J. West mainly investigates Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Stereology, Hippocampal formation and Neuron.
His Neuroscience study typically links adjacent topics like Normal aging.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Alzheimer's disease and Senescence in addition to Hippocampus.
His work in Stereology addresses subjects such as Sampling, which are connected to disciplines such as Orientation.
His Hippocampal formation research includes themes of Neurogenesis and Forebrain.
In his work, Quantitative analysis is strongly intertwined with Pathology, which is a subfield of Neuron.

- Internal medicine (19.23%)
- Endocrinology (19.23%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Pathology and Amyloid.
When carried out as part of a general Neuroscience research project, his work on Dentate gyrus and Hippocampus is frequently linked to work in Context, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
The concepts of his Dentate gyrus study are interwoven with issues in Neuron and Neuroblast.
His Internal medicine research focuses on Neurogenesis and how it relates to Cell growth and Bromodeoxyuridine.
His work in the fields of Stereology, Immunohistochemistry and Neuropathology overlaps with other areas such as Pericyte.
His Stereology study often links to related topics such as Amyloidosis.
Between 2008 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- The capillary dysfunction hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease. (115 citations)
- Inactivation of the hereditary spastic paraplegia-associated Hspd1 gene encoding the Hsp60 chaperone results in early embryonic lethality in mice (70 citations)
- Decreased cell proliferation in the dentate gyrus does not associate with development of anhedonic-like symptoms in rats (69 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Neuron
His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Neurodegeneration, Mitochondrion, Hereditary spastic paraplegia and Hippocampus.
His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Internal medicine and Bromodeoxyuridine, Cell growth.
Mark J. West combines subjects such as Genetics and Chaperone with his study of Neurodegeneration.
He has researched Mitochondrion in several fields, including Heat shock protein, Gene, Allele and Essential gene.
His studies in Hippocampus integrate themes in fields like Stereotaxic technique, Alzheimer's disease, Synapse, Genetically modified mouse and Amyloid.
