What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Neuroscience
- Cognition
- Social psychology
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ventromedial prefrontal cortex, Prefrontal cortex, Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology and Brain mapping.
His Ventromedial prefrontal cortex study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ultimatum game, Anxiety, Neuroeconomics, Neuroimaging and Amygdala.
His work deals with themes such as Mental illness, Brain damage, Hypoactivity and Clinical psychology, which intersect with Amygdala.
His Prefrontal cortex research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Developmental psychology and Psychopathy.
His studies deal with areas such as Empathy, Shame, Moral disengagement and Neuropsychology as well as Cognitive psychology.
His study in Neuropsychology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, Dorsolateral and Intelligence quotient.
His most cited work include:
- Damage to the prefrontal cortex increases utilitarian moral judgements (1026 citations)
- The functional neuroanatomy of depression: Distinct roles for ventromedial and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (566 citations)
- Irrational Economic Decision-Making after Ventromedial Prefrontal Damage: Evidence from the Ultimatum Game (454 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Psychopathy, Prefrontal cortex, Cognitive psychology, Neuroscience and Ventromedial prefrontal cortex.
His research in Psychopathy intersects with topics in Developmental psychology, Empathy, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Clinical psychology.
His work carried out in the field of Prefrontal cortex brings together such families of science as Mental illness, Brain mapping and Amygdala.
His Cognitive psychology research incorporates themes from Orbitofrontal cortex and Neuroimaging, Functional neuroimaging, Cognition, Neuropsychology.
His work in Neuroscience addresses subjects such as Lesion, which are connected to disciplines such as Psychometrics, Temporal cortex and Implicit-association test.
His Ventromedial prefrontal cortex study which covers Neuroeconomics that intersects with Ultimatum game.
He most often published in these fields:
- Psychopathy (38.71%)
- Prefrontal cortex (39.78%)
- Cognitive psychology (31.18%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Psychopathy (38.71%)
- Clinical psychology (20.43%)
- Cognitive psychology (31.18%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Michael Koenigs mainly investigates Psychopathy, Clinical psychology, Cognitive psychology, Cognition and Empathy.
His Psychopathy research incorporates elements of Impulsivity, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Default mode network and Amygdala.
His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Approach-avoidance conflict and Theory of mind.
The concepts of his Theory of mind study are interwoven with issues in Sadness, Anger, Orbitofrontal cortex, Ventromedial prefrontal cortex and Consumer neuroscience.
His research ties Prefrontal cortex and Neuropsychiatry together.
He performs integrative study on Prefrontal cortex and Suicidal ideation in his works.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- The Multifaceted Role of the Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex in Emotion, Decision Making, Social Cognition, and Psychopathology. (206 citations)
- Machine learning of brain gray matter differentiates sex in a large forensic sample. (56 citations)
- Aberrant functional network connectivity in psychopathy from a large (N = 985) forensic sample (22 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Neuroscience
- Cognition
- Social psychology
Michael Koenigs mainly focuses on Psychopathy, Clinical psychology, Amygdala, Default mode network and Functional magnetic resonance imaging.
His Psychopathy study incorporates themes from Substance dependence, Septum pellucidum and Limbic system.
His study looks at the relationship between Amygdala and fields such as Empathy, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
The Posterior cingulate study combines topics in areas such as Theory of mind and Prefrontal cortex, Consumer neuroscience.
His Salience study contributes to a more complete understanding of Cognitive psychology.
Michael Koenigs interconnects Anterior cingulate cortex, Schizophrenia and Ventromedial prefrontal cortex in the investigation of issues within Cognitive psychology.
