Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Neuroscience

Nuno Sousa mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Chronic stress and Prefrontal cortex. His Neuroscience research includes elements of Alzheimer's disease and Disease. His research in Endocrinology intersects with topics in Receptor and Neurodegeneration.

The Chronic stress study combines topics in areas such as Long-term potentiation and Tau protein. The study incorporates disciplines such as Working memory, Sphingolipid and Hyperphosphorylation in addition to Prefrontal cortex. The concepts of his Hippocampal formation study are interwoven with issues in Neurogenesis, Schizophrenia, Corticosterone and Atrophy.

His most cited work include:

  • The Multimodal Brain Tumor Image Segmentation Benchmark (BRATS) (1985 citations)
  • Reorganization of the morphology of hippocampal neurites and synapses after stress-induced damage correlates with behavioral improvement. (630 citations)
  • Chronic stress causes frontostriatal reorganization and affects decision-making. (591 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Cognition and Hippocampal formation. Neuroscience is a component of his Chronic stress, Hippocampus, Prefrontal cortex, Neuroplasticity and Neurogenesis studies. Nuno Sousa has included themes like Oncology and Cardiology in his Internal medicine study.

His Endocrinology study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Receptor. His Cognition study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Clinical psychology and Cognitive decline. His work in Hippocampal formation addresses subjects such as Cell biology, which are connected to disciplines such as Immunology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (31.75%)
  • Internal medicine (18.17%)
  • Endocrinology (12.80%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (31.75%)
  • Internal medicine (18.17%)
  • Cognition (10.90%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Cognition, Neuroimaging and Hippocampal formation. His work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Neurodegeneration and Microglia. His research integrates issues of Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology in his study of Internal medicine.

His study in the field of Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance is also linked to topics like Context. His research in Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance intersects with topics in White matter and Cognitive decline. The Hippocampal formation study which covers Hippocampus that intersects with Chronic stress.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Criticality between Cortical States. (74 citations)
  • Dysregulation of autophagy and stress granule-related proteins in stress-driven Tau pathology. (34 citations)
  • Proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the CSF of patients with Alzheimer's disease and their correlation with cognitive decline. (30 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Neuroscience

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Internal medicine, Hippocampal formation and Anxiety. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Voxel and DNA. His Hippocampus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sphingolipid, Cognitive aging, Neuroplasticity, Chronic stress and Synaptophysin.

His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Founder effect. He combines subjects such as Phosphatidylinositol, Amygdala, Ceramide and Glucocorticoid with his study of Hippocampal formation. The Anxiety study combines topics in areas such as Obsessive compulsive, Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, Physical exercise and Depression.
