Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Miles A. Whittington mostly deals with Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Electrophysiology and Excitatory postsynaptic potential. His studies link Gap junction with Neuroscience. His studies in Hippocampal formation integrate themes in fields like Synaptic plasticity, Beta wave, Stimulus, Mismatch negativity and Brain activity and meditation.

His research in Inhibitory postsynaptic potential focuses on subjects like Postsynaptic potential, which are connected to Theta rhythm, Post hoc, In vitro and Dentate gyrus. His studies deal with areas such as Soma and Cognition as well as Electrophysiology. His Excitatory postsynaptic potential study combines topics in areas such as GABAergic and Premovement neuronal activity.

His most cited work include:

  • Synchronized oscillations in interneuron networks driven by metabotropic glutamate receptor activation (1407 citations)
  • Gamma rhythms and beta rhythms have different synchronization properties. (836 citations)
  • Prion protein is necessary for normal synaptic function (706 citations)

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

Miles A. Whittington spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Rhythm, Hippocampus and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential. His Neuroscience study deals with Gap junction intersecting with Axon. He focuses mostly in the field of Hippocampal formation, narrowing it down to topics relating to GABAA receptor and, in certain cases, Kainate receptor, AMPA receptor, Biophysics and NMDA receptor.

His work carried out in the field of Hippocampus brings together such families of science as In vitro and Interneuron. His work deals with themes such as Glutamate receptor and Pyramidal cell, which intersect with Interneuron. His Excitatory postsynaptic potential research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Long-term potentiation, Bursting and Anatomy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (74.29%)
  • Hippocampal formation (21.22%)
  • Rhythm (16.33%)

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

  • Neuroscience (74.29%)
  • Rhythm (16.33%)
  • Local field potential (4.90%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Rhythm, Local field potential, Cognition and NMDA receptor. As part of his studies on Neuroscience, he frequently links adjacent subjects like Schizophrenia. His research in Rhythm intersects with topics in Thalamus, Neural Inhibition, Electroencephalography and Auditory cortex.

The NMDA receptor study combines topics in areas such as Ketamine, Clozapine, Electrophysiology and Nucleus accumbens. His Hippocampal formation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hippocampus, Axon, Central pattern generator and Gap junction. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research includes themes of AMPA receptor, Long-term potentiation and Computational model.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Beyond the connectome: the dynome. (228 citations)
  • Neurosystems: brain rhythms and cognitive processing (136 citations)
  • Aberrant Network Activity in Schizophrenia (59 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Cognition, Rhythm, Premovement neuronal activity and Schizophrenia. His Neuroscience research includes elements of Gap junction and Connexin. He interconnects Glutamatergic, Hippocampal formation, Interneuron, Central pattern generator and Hippocampus in the investigation of issues within Gap junction.

His Cognition research includes themes of Schizophrenia research, Cognitive psychology, Neural Inhibition and Inhibitory interneuron. Miles A. Whittington has included themes like Cortex, Default mode network, Delta Rhythm and Thalamus in his Rhythm study. His Premovement neuronal activity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Extracellular, Local field potential, Biological neuron model and Vertex.
