Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Glutamate receptor, Neuroprotection, Internal medicine and Central nervous system. His Glutamate receptor research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Astrocyte and Gap junction. Michael Nilsson interconnects Neuroglia, Monoamine transport, Glial fibrillary acidic protein and Pathology in the investigation of issues within Astrocyte.

The various areas that Michael Nilsson examines in his Neuroprotection study include Stroke, Oxidative stress, Superoxide and Cardiology. His Internal medicine study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Endocrinology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microglia, Neuroplasticity, Neuroinflammation and Anatomy.

His most cited work include:

  • Astrocyte activation and reactive gliosis (1199 citations)
  • Enriched environment increases neurogenesis in the adult rat dentate gyrus and improves spatial memory. (748 citations)
  • Physical Activity for Cognitive and Mental Health in Youth: A Systematic Review of Mechanisms. (449 citations)

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

Michael Nilsson mainly focuses on Stroke, Internal medicine, Physical therapy, Neuroscience and Rehabilitation. His Stroke study incorporates themes from Clinical trial, Cognition and Physical medicine and rehabilitation. His studies deal with areas such as Endocrinology and Cardiology as well as Internal medicine.

Many of his studies on Neuroscience involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Microglia. Michael Nilsson has researched Rehabilitation in several fields, including Psychological intervention, Music therapy and Environmental enrichment. His Astrocyte research integrates issues from Biochemistry and Glial fibrillary acidic protein.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stroke (33.69%)
  • Internal medicine (21.15%)
  • Physical therapy (18.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Stroke (33.69%)
  • Physical medicine and rehabilitation (11.11%)
  • Physical therapy (18.28%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Stroke, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Physical therapy, Rehabilitation and Internal medicine. His studies in Stroke integrate themes in fields like Randomized controlled trial, Cognition, Neuroscience and Secondary prevention. His research ties Immunohistochemistry and Neuroscience together.

His Physical therapy study which covers Intervention that intersects with Psychological intervention, Hand strength, Somatosensory disorder, Sensory loss and Haptic technology. The Rehabilitation study combines topics in areas such as Perspective and Environmental enrichment. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Internal medicine, Neuroprotection and Hypoxia is strongly linked to Cardiology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Multidimensional diffusion MRI with spectrally modulated gradients reveals unprecedented microstructural detail (31 citations)
  • Spatiotemporal analysis of impaired microglia process movement at sites of secondary neurodegeneration post-stroke. (25 citations)
  • The Impact of Physical Activity on Brain Structure and Function in Youth: A Systematic Review. (22 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Stroke, Physical therapy, Thalamus, Intervention and Text processing. His Stroke research is included under the broader classification of Internal medicine. The various areas that Michael Nilsson examines in his Internal medicine study include Somatosensory system, Endocrinology and Cardiology.

His work on Physical fitness as part of general Physical therapy research is often related to Attendance, thus linking different fields of science. His Thalamus research is classified as research in Neuroscience. His studies in Neuroscience integrate themes in fields like Immunohistochemistry, Aquaporin 4 and Young adult.
