Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Immune system

Michal Schwartz mainly investigates Immunology, Protective autoimmunity, Immune system, Neuroscience and Central nervous system. The study incorporates disciplines such as Disease and Neuroprotection in addition to Immunology. Her Protective autoimmunity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, Myelin, Myelin basic protein and Autoimmune disease.

Her Immune system research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Alzheimer's disease, Cytotoxic T cell and Choroid plexus. Her Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Neurodegeneration and Regeneration. Her study in Central nervous system is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Immune privilege, Spinal cord injury, Nervous system, Cell biology and Macrophage.

Her most cited work include:

  • A Unique Microglia Type Associated with Restricting Development of Alzheimer’s Disease (1571 citations)
  • Immune cells contribute to the maintenance of neurogenesis and spatial learning abilities in adulthood (908 citations)
  • Autoimmune T cells protect neurons from secondary degeneration after central nervous system axotomy (792 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Immune system, Neuroscience, Central nervous system and Optic nerve. Her Immunology study incorporates themes from Disease and Neuroprotection. She combines subjects such as Inflammation, Neuroinflammation, Autoimmune disease and Antigen with her study of Immune system.

Her research integrates issues of Progenitor cell, Degeneration and Immunity in her study of Neuroscience. Her studies deal with areas such as Pathology, Spinal cord injury and Regeneration, Cell biology as well as Central nervous system. The Optic nerve study combines topics in areas such as Crush injury, Retina, Retinal ganglion and Glaucoma.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (38.45%)
  • Immune system (31.44%)
  • Neuroscience (29.55%)

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

  • Immune system (31.44%)
  • Immunology (38.45%)
  • Neuroscience (29.55%)

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

Michal Schwartz spends much of her time researching Immune system, Immunology, Neuroscience, Disease and Cell biology. Her Immune system research includes themes of Homeostasis, Pathology, Microglia and Choroid plexus. Michal Schwartz works mostly in the field of Immunology, limiting it down to concerns involving Central nervous system and, occasionally, Cell.

Her work on Neurogenesis as part of general Neuroscience study is frequently linked to High resolution, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her Disease research includes elements of Immune checkpoint, TREM2 and RNA. Her studies examine the connections between Cell biology and genetics, as well as such issues in Transcription factor, with regards to Regulation of gene expression and Promoter.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A Unique Microglia Type Associated with Restricting Development of Alzheimer’s Disease (1571 citations)
  • Microglia development follows a stepwise program to regulate brain homeostasis (587 citations)
  • Aging-induced type I interferon response at the choroid plexus negatively affects brain function (309 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

Michal Schwartz mostly deals with Immunology, Immune system, Disease, Central nervous system and Microglia. Her Immunology research incorporates elements of Neuroscience, Transgene and Choroid plexus. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Neurodegeneration and Pathology.

Her Central nervous system research incorporates themes from Cell, Signal transduction and Homeostasis. Michal Schwartz interconnects Phenotype, MEF2C and Ageing in the investigation of issues within Microglia. Her studies in Protective autoimmunity integrate themes in fields like Inflammation and Autoimmune disease.
