What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Neuroscience
- Neuron
- Internal medicine
Neuroscience, Visual cortex, Neuroplasticity, Ocular dominance and Monocular deprivation are her primary areas of study.
Her work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Long-term potentiation and Visual acuity.
Her study looks at the intersection of Visual cortex and topics like Period with Sensory development, NMDA receptor, Receptor and Neurotrophic factors.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Pharmacotherapy, Local field potential, Electroencephalography and Endogeny in addition to Neuroplasticity.
Her work investigates the relationship between Ocular dominance and topics such as Anatomy that intersect with problems in Perineuronal net.
Her work in Monocular deprivation addresses issues such as Neuron, which are connected to fields such as Sensory system and Eyelid.
Her most cited work include:
- Reactivation of Ocular Dominance Plasticity in the Adult Visual Cortex (1239 citations)
- Functional postnatal development of the rat primary visual cortex and the role of visual experience: Dark rearing and monocular deprivation (573 citations)
- Environmental enrichment strengthens corticocortical interactions and reduces amyloid-β oligomers in aged mice (482 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Nicoletta Berardi mostly deals with Neuroscience, Visual cortex, Environmental enrichment, Neuroplasticity and Visual acuity.
Her work on Visual perception as part of general Neuroscience study is frequently connected to Developmental plasticity, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
The concepts of her Visual cortex study are interwoven with issues in Sensory system, Anatomy and Nerve growth factor.
Nicoletta Berardi combines subjects such as Cognition and Brain development with her study of Environmental enrichment.
In her research on the topic of Visual acuity, Strabismus is strongly related with Contrast.
Her Ocular dominance study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Receptive field, Cortex and Period.
