Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Thalamus

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Thalamus, Electrophysiology, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Anatomy. The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Depolarization and Reticular connective tissue. He studied Thalamus and Neuron that intersect with Thalamic reticular nucleus, Somatosensory system, Biocytin, Axon and Spinal cord.

His Electrophysiology research includes elements of Whisking in animals, Exploratory behaviour, Rhythm and Breathing. His research integrates issues of Sleep in non-human animals, Wakefulness, Arousal and Pyramidal tracts in his study of Inhibitory postsynaptic potential. His studies in Anatomy integrate themes in fields like Cerebral cortex, Receptive field and Medulla oblongata.

His most cited work include:

  • The thalamus as a neuronal oscillator. (761 citations)
  • Abolition of spindle oscillations in thalamic neurons disconnected from nucleus reticularis thalami (485 citations)
  • The deafferented reticular thalamic nucleus generates spindle rhythmicity (466 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Thalamus, Anatomy, Whisking in animals and Electrophysiology. His study in Somatosensory system, Sensory system, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Brainstem and Nucleus falls under the purview of Neuroscience. His Thalamus research includes themes of Receptive field, Cerebral cortex, Reticular connective tissue, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Neuron.

His Anatomy research incorporates elements of Cortex and Spinal cord. The study incorporates disciplines such as Communication, Rhythm, Breathing, Sensation and Sniffing in addition to Whisking in animals. His Electrophysiology study combines topics in areas such as Central nervous system, Diencephalon, Depolarization and Electroencephalography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (86.15%)
  • Thalamus (44.62%)
  • Anatomy (27.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (86.15%)
  • Whisking in animals (27.69%)
  • Anatomy (27.69%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Whisking in animals, Anatomy, Sniffing and Rhythm. His work on Neuroscience is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Medulla. His studies deal with areas such as Sensation, Breathing and Brainstem as well as Whisking in animals.

His Anatomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Stimulation and Reflex. His Sensory system course of study focuses on Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Spinal cord. He regularly links together related areas like Electrophysiology in his Thalamus studies.

Between 2013 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Convergence of Cortical and Sensory Driver Inputs on Single Thalamocortical Cells (100 citations)
  • Vibrissa Self-Motion and Touch Are Reliably Encoded along the Same Somatosensory Pathway from Brainstem through Thalamus. (70 citations)
  • More than a rhythm of life: breathing as a binder of orofacial sensation (64 citations)
