In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Nicola B. Mercuri spends much of her time researching Internal medicine, Neuroscience, Parkinson's disease, Disease and Dopaminergic.
Her Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Oncology and Cardiology.
Her Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Synaptic plasticity and Neurotransmission.
Her study in Synaptic plasticity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Long-term potentiation and ErbB.
Nicola B. Mercuri has included themes like Oxidative stress, Neuroinflammation, Pathophysiology and Physical therapy in her Parkinson's disease study.
Nicola B. Mercuri has researched Disease in several fields, including Sleep in non-human animals, Neurology, Depression and Obstructive sleep apnea.
Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Early structural and functional plasticity alterations in a susceptibility period of DYT1 dystonia mouse striatum (55 citations)
- Subjective neurological symptoms frequently occur in patients with SARS-CoV2 infection. (50 citations)
- Dysbiosis of gut microbiota in a selected population of Parkinson's patients (45 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Neuron
- Dopamine
Internal medicine, Neuroscience, Disease, Parkinson's disease and Synaptic plasticity are her primary areas of study.
Her Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sleep in non-human animals, Neurology, Cognition and Oncology.
Her work on Self-administration expands to the thematically related Neuroscience.
Her studies in Synaptic plasticity integrate themes in fields like Glutamatergic, Neurotransmission, Long-term potentiation, Endoplasmic reticulum and Hippocampus.
When carried out as part of a general Dopamine research project, her work on Dopaminergic is frequently linked to work in Synaptopathy, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
Nicola B. Mercuri studies Dopaminergic, namely Substantia nigra.
