Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Hippocampus
  • Neuron

Menno P. Witter spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation, Entorhinal cortex and Dentate gyrus. His Neuroscience study frequently links to other fields, such as Anatomy. His Hippocampus research includes elements of Prefrontal cortex, Dorsum, Brain mapping and Spatial memory.

Menno P. Witter has included themes like Neuroanatomy and Nerve net in his Hippocampal formation study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Neocortex, Path integration, Place cell and Grid in addition to Entorhinal cortex. His Dentate gyrus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Rhinencephalon and Pathology.

His most cited work include:

  • The three-dimensional organization of the hippocampal formation: a review of anatomical data. (1740 citations)
  • Conjunctive Representation of Position, Direction, and Velocity in Entorhinal Cortex (985 citations)
  • Conjunctive Representation of Position, Direction, and Velocity in Entorhinal Cortex (985 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Entorhinal cortex, Hippocampal formation and Subiculum. His Neuroscience study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Anatomy. His biological study deals with issues like Spatial memory, which deal with fields such as Recognition memory.

His study in Entorhinal cortex is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Anterograde tracing, Perforant Pathway, Postrhinal cortex, Parasubiculum and Neocortex. His Hippocampal formation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Retrosplenial cortex, Nucleus reuniens, Prefrontal cortex, Neuron and Parvalbumin. The concepts of his Subiculum study are interwoven with issues in Biotinylated dextran amine and Laminar organization.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (95.68%)
  • Hippocampus (58.63%)
  • Entorhinal cortex (59.35%)

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

  • Neuroscience (95.68%)
  • Entorhinal cortex (59.35%)
  • Hippocampus (58.63%)

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

Menno P. Witter mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Entorhinal cortex, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation and Spatial memory. Menno P. Witter incorporates Neuroscience and Cell type in his research. His Entorhinal cortex course of study focuses on Parasubiculum and Anterograde tracing.

Episodic memory is closely connected to Temporal lobe in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Hippocampus. In his study, Executive functions and Thalamus is strongly linked to Nucleus reuniens, which falls under the umbrella field of Hippocampal formation. His studies deal with areas such as Hippocampal region and Posterior parietal cortex as well as Spatial memory.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Functional organization of the hippocampal longitudinal axis (813 citations)
  • A prefrontal–thalamo–hippocampal circuit for goal-directed spatial navigation (255 citations)
  • Grid cells and cortical representation (188 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Hippocampus
  • Neuron

Menno P. Witter mainly investigates Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation, Entorhinal cortex and Spatial memory. His study involves Perirhinal cortex, Cortex, Optogenetics, Prefrontal cortex and Thalamus, a branch of Neuroscience. His research integrates issues of Receptive field, Cognition, Sensory system and Brain mapping in his study of Hippocampus.

His research in Hippocampal formation intersects with topics in Brain atlas, Segmentation, Rat brain, Diffusion MRI and Parvalbumin. His Entorhinal cortex study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cognitive map and GABAergic. His Spatial memory research incorporates themes from Functional organization, Dorsum and Electrophysiology.
