Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Psychiatry

His scientific interests lie mostly in Autism, Asperger syndrome, Cognition, Neuroscience and Developmental psychology. His Autism research includes elements of Sex characteristics, Intellectual disability and Audiology. He works mostly in the field of Asperger syndrome, limiting it down to topics relating to Clinical psychology and, in certain cases, High-functioning autism and Severity of illness.

His Cognition study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Autism-spectrum quotient and Empathy. His White matter research extends to Neuroscience, which is thematically connected. His research integrates issues of Penetrance, Etiology and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in his study of Developmental psychology.

His most cited work include:

  • A meta-analysis of sex differences in human brain structure (551 citations)
  • Why Are Autism Spectrum Conditions More Prevalent in Males (424 citations)
  • Sex/Gender Differences and Autism: Setting the Scene for Future Research (424 citations)

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

Michael V. Lombardo spends much of his time researching Autism, Neuroscience, Autism spectrum disorder, Developmental psychology and Cognitive psychology. His Autism study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Resting state fMRI, Audiology, Cognition and Clinical psychology. His work in Cognition addresses subjects such as Asperger syndrome, which are connected to disciplines such as High-functioning autism.

His study in Neuroscience is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Phenotype, Gene and Transcriptome. His studies in Autism spectrum disorder integrate themes in fields like White matter, Genetic heterogeneity, Neuroimaging and Neuropsychology. His Developmental psychology research also works with subjects such as

  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging which intersects with area such as Theory of mind,
  • Cohort which intersects with area such as Observational study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Autism (93.72%)
  • Neuroscience (49.74%)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (52.88%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Autism (93.72%)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (52.88%)
  • Neuroscience (49.74%)

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

His main research concerns Autism, Autism spectrum disorder, Neuroscience, Developmental psychology and Neuroimaging. His specific area of interest is Autism, where Michael V. Lombardo studies Neurotypical. His Autism spectrum disorder research incorporates elements of White matter, Audiology, Superior temporal gyrus and Intelligence quotient.

His work in Neuroscience covers topics such as Androgen which are related to areas like Causes of autism and Default mode network. His work on Mother child interaction as part of general Developmental psychology research is frequently linked to Correlation, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study looks at the relationship between Functional magnetic resonance imaging and topics such as Theory of mind, which overlap with Neuropsychology.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Large-scale analyses of the relationship between sex, age and intelligence quotient heterogeneity and cortical morphometry in autism spectrum disorder. (48 citations)
  • Large-scale analyses of the relationship between sex, age and intelligence quotient heterogeneity and cortical morphometry in autism spectrum disorder. (48 citations)
  • Intrinsic excitation-inhibition imbalance affects medial prefrontal cortex differently in autistic men versus women. (18 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Psychiatry

Michael V. Lombardo mostly deals with Autism, Neuroscience, Autism spectrum disorder, Androgen and Developmental psychology. His research in Autism intersects with topics in Downregulation and upregulation, Affect and Cell biology. When carried out as part of a general Neuroscience research project, his work on Postmortem studies is frequently linked to work in Synaptic pruning, Synaptopathy and TSC2, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

Superior temporal gyrus, Audiology, Clinical heterogeneity and Intelligence quotient is closely connected to Neuroimaging in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Autism spectrum disorder. His Androgen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Testosterone, Causes of autism and Default mode network. The study incorporates disciplines such as Social relation, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Anticipation in addition to Developmental psychology.
