Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

His primary areas of study are Hippocampal formation, Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Hippocampus and Internal medicine. His work in Hippocampal formation addresses issues such as Pathology, which are connected to fields such as Molecular biology. In his research, Behavioral neuroscience, Neurology, Synaptogenesis, Synaptic pruning and Microglia is intimately related to Neuropathology, which falls under the overarching field of Neuroscience.

His research in Neurogenesis intersects with topics in Dentate gyrus, Synaptic plasticity, Immunology, Chronic stress and Neural stem cell. His work carried out in the field of Hippocampus brings together such families of science as Cognition, Elementary cognitive task, Programmed cell death and Cognitive decline. His Endocrinology research extends to the thematically linked field of Internal medicine.

His most cited work include:

  • The stress system in the human brain in depression and neurodegeneration. (709 citations)
  • Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone mRNA Levels in the Paraventricular Nucleus of Patients With Alzheimer's Disease and Depression (355 citations)
  • Regulation of adult neurogenesis by stress, sleep disruption, exercise and inflammation: Implications for depression and antidepressant action (355 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Neurogenesis, Hippocampus, Internal medicine and Hippocampal formation. His Neuroscience research includes themes of Long-term potentiation and Dementia, Disease. His Neurogenesis study incorporates themes from Inflammation, Brain Structure and Function, Neuroplasticity, Doublecortin and Neural stem cell.

His Hippocampus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Microglia, Pathology, Human brain, Alzheimer's disease and Neuropathology. His work deals with themes such as Offspring and Endocrinology, which intersect with Internal medicine. Paul J. Lucassen works in the field of Hippocampal formation, focusing on Dentate gyrus in particular.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (47.19%)
  • Neurogenesis (37.45%)
  • Hippocampus (37.08%)

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

  • Neuroscience (47.19%)
  • Internal medicine (34.83%)
  • Endocrinology (34.08%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Neurogenesis and Hippocampal formation. His Neuroscience research incorporates elements of Synaptic plasticity and Microglia. The study incorporates disciplines such as Anterior cingulate cortex and Prefrontal cortex in addition to Internal medicine.

His Endocrinology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Agonist and TREM2. His work in Neurogenesis covers topics such as Neural stem cell which are related to areas like Brain Structure and Function, Hypothalamus and Immunocytochemistry. His Hippocampal formation study also includes

  • Epilepsy which intersects with area such as Dentate gyrus,
  • Glucocorticoid receptor that intertwine with fields like Temporal lobe.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Circadian glucocorticoid oscillations preserve a population of adult hippocampal neural stem cells in the aging brain (25 citations)
  • Limits to human neurogenesis-really? (22 citations)
  • Early life stress impairs fear memory and synaptic plasticity; a potential role for GluN2B. (20 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

Paul J. Lucassen mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Neurogenesis, Neural stem cell and Hippocampus. His Neuroscience research incorporates themes from Synaptic plasticity, Long-term potentiation, Psychopathology and Neuropeptide. His Hippocampal formation study combines Internal medicine and Endocrinology studies.

The Neurogenesis study combines topics in areas such as Histological examination and Human studies. Paul J. Lucassen usually deals with Neural stem cell and limits it to topics linked to Epilepsy and Dentate gyrus, Neuroblast proliferation and Subgranular zone. He interconnects Cognition and Amyloid in the investigation of issues within Hippocampus.
