Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Central nervous system

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Midbrain, Stimulation, Inferior colliculus and Endocrinology. Microinjections is closely connected to Bicuculline in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Neuroscience. The Midbrain study which covers Superior colliculus that intersects with Neural substrate and Tectum Mesencephali.

His work carried out in the field of Stimulation brings together such families of science as Escape response, Nociception, Aversive Stimulus, Serotonin and Amygdala. His studies deal with areas such as NMDA receptor, Serotonergic, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Central nervous system as well as Inferior colliculus. His studies in Endocrinology integrate themes in fields like Internal medicine and Endogenous opioid, Opioid.

His most cited work include:

  • Neural substrate of defensive behavior in the midbrain tectum (144 citations)
  • Defense reaction induced by microinjections of bicuculline into the inferior colliculus. (110 citations)
  • GABAergic nigro-collicular pathways modulate the defensive behaviour elicited by midbrain tectum stimulation (94 citations)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Stimulation and Pharmacology. His work on Neuroscience is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Bicuculline. His research in Endocrinology intersects with topics in Antagonist, Raphe nuclei, Panic and Dorsal raphe nucleus.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including NMDA receptor, Anesthesia, Periaqueductal gray and Dorsum. His Pharmacology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nociception, Opioid peptide, Receptor, Opioid receptor and Opioid. His Superior colliculus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Tectum, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Substantia nigra.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (49.25%)
  • Internal medicine (29.15%)
  • Endocrinology (28.64%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (49.25%)
  • Endocrinology (28.64%)
  • Internal medicine (29.15%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Stimulation and Neuropathic pain. His Neuroscience study is mostly concerned with Superior colliculus, Amygdala, Basolateral amygdala, Substantia nigra and Periaqueductal gray. His Superior colliculus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Midbrain, GABAergic, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Bicuculline, GABAA receptor.

Norberto Cysne Coimbra usually deals with Periaqueductal gray and limits it to topics linked to Hot plate test and Central nervous system. His research ties Agonist and Endocrinology together. He interconnects Periaqueductal gray matter, Extracellular, Inflammation, Dorsum and Nasal administration in the investigation of issues within Stimulation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Rodent-versus-wild Snake Paradigm as a Model for Studying Anxiety- and Panic-like Behaviors: Face, Construct and Predictive Validities. (17 citations)
  • Stimulation of the Nigrotectal Pathway at the Level of the Superior Colliculus Reduces Threat Recognition and Causes a Shift From Avoidance to Approach Behavior (12 citations)
  • Anatomical and clinical implications of vagal modulation of the spleen (11 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Central nervous system
  • Neuroscience

Norberto Cysne Coimbra mostly deals with Neuroscience, Stimulation, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Panic. His study involves Ventral tegmental area, Dopaminergic, Dopamine receptor D2, Basolateral amygdala and Dopamine, a branch of Neuroscience. The Stimulation study combines topics in areas such as Inflammation, Systemic inflammation, Nerve injury and Electrophysiology.

His Endocrinology research integrates issues from NMDA receptor, Anandamide, Cannabinoid receptor and Endocannabinoid system. The various areas that Norberto Cysne Coimbra examines in his Panic study include Serotonin uptake, Glutamate receptor, Opioid receptor and Receptor antagonist. His Hypothalamus research incorporates elements of Antagonist, Nitric oxide, AM251 and Excitatory postsynaptic potential.
