Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience
  • Central nervous system

Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Hippocampus, Dentate gyrus and Cell biology are his primary areas of study. The various areas that he examines in his Neuroscience study include AMPA receptor, Reelin and Anatomy. His work in Hippocampal formation covers topics such as Synaptic plasticity which are related to areas like Estrogen and Synaptogenesis.

His Hippocampus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Neocortex, Lesion and DAB1. His Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Positional cloning and Neuroglia. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Pyramidal cell, Parvalbumin and Postsynaptic potential.

His most cited work include:

  • Regulation of Synaptic Efficacy by Coincidence of Postsynaptic APs and EPSPs (3071 citations)
  • Importance of AMPA receptors for hippocampal synaptic plasticity but not for spatial learning. (675 citations)
  • Targeting gene-modified hematopoietic cells to the central nervous system: Use of green fluorescent protein uncovers microglial engraftment (542 citations)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation, Cell biology and Dentate gyrus. His work on Reelin expands to the thematically related Neuroscience. The Hippocampus study combines topics in areas such as Choline acetyltransferase, Axotomy, Cholinergic, Central nervous system and Anatomy.

His Hippocampal formation research incorporates elements of Synapse and Postsynaptic potential. Michael Frotscher has researched Entorhinal cortex in several fields, including Anterograde tracing and Lesion. His Parvalbumin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, GABAergic and Interneuron.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (66.83%)
  • Hippocampus (35.10%)
  • Hippocampal formation (33.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (66.83%)
  • Cell biology (25.96%)
  • Reelin (14.90%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Cell biology, Reelin, Dentate gyrus and Hippocampal formation. His Neuroscience research incorporates themes from Synaptic plasticity and Postsynaptic potential. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as NMDA receptor and Spine apparatus.

His work deals with themes such as Cerebral cortex, Raphe and Serotonin, which intersect with Reelin. The concepts of his Dentate gyrus study are interwoven with issues in Neurogenesis, Somal translocation, Cerebellum and Kainate receptor. The study incorporates disciplines such as Orientation, Wild type, Olfactory bulb and Neuron in addition to Hippocampal formation.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Synaptic mechanisms of pattern completion in the hippocampal CA3 network (129 citations)
  • Reelin protects against amyloid β toxicity in vivo (62 citations)
  • Synaptopodin regulates spine plasticity: mediation by calcium stores. (59 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Central nervous system
  • Genetics

Michael Frotscher mostly deals with Cell biology, Neuroscience, Reelin, Postsynaptic potential and Signal transduction. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Synaptic plasticity, NMDA receptor and LIMK1, Cofilin, Actin cytoskeleton. His study in Synaptic plasticity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Long-term potentiation and Immunology.

His Neuroscience research includes themes of Presynapse and Long-term depression. His Reelin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cerebral cortex, Cofilin 1 and Lim kinase. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Network model, Hippocampal formation, Pattern completion, Functional connectivity and gamma-Aminobutyric acid.
