Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience
  • Internal medicine

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, GABAergic, Postsynaptic potential, Neuron and Axon. In his research, Interneuron is intimately related to Anatomy, which falls under the overarching field of Neuroscience. The various areas that he examines in his GABAergic study include Cerebral cortex, gamma-Aminobutyric acid and GABAA receptor.

His Postsynaptic potential research incorporates elements of Dendritic spine, Neurotransmission and Excitatory postsynaptic potential. Peter Somogyi combines subjects such as Cortex and Axon initial segment with his study of Neuron. His Axon study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Biophysics.

His most cited work include:

  • Neuronal diversity and temporal dynamics: the unity of hippocampal circuit operations. (1440 citations)
  • Synchronization of neuronal activity in hippocampus by individual GABAergic interneurons (1287 citations)
  • Petilla terminology: nomenclature of features of GABAergic interneurons of the cerebral cortex (1104 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, GABAergic, Hippocampal formation, Postsynaptic potential and Pyramidal cell. His study in Neuroscience focuses on Hippocampus, Interneuron, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Axon and Neuron. His GABAergic study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cerebral cortex, Glutamatergic, gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Parvalbumin and Visual cortex.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Nerve net and Schaffer collateral. His Postsynaptic potential research focuses on Synapse and how it relates to Cell biology and GABAA receptor. His Pyramidal cell course of study focuses on Axon initial segment and Basket cell.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (84.50%)
  • GABAergic (39.53%)
  • Hippocampal formation (29.46%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (84.50%)
  • GABAergic (39.53%)
  • Hippocampal formation (29.46%)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, GABAergic, Hippocampal formation, Hippocampus and Interneuron. His research integrates issues of Glutamatergic and Postsynaptic potential in his study of Neuroscience. The various areas that Peter Somogyi examines in his GABAergic study include Pyramidal cell, Premovement neuronal activity, gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Axon and Disinhibition.

His work in Axon tackles topics such as Neuron which are related to areas like Functional specialization. His Hippocampal formation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nerve net and Rhythm. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Reelin, Cell type and Transcriptome.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Behavior-dependent specialization of identified hippocampal interneurons (176 citations)
  • Behavior-dependent specialization of identified hippocampal interneurons (176 citations)
  • Classes and continua of hippocampal CA1 inhibitory neurons revealed by single-cell transcriptomics. (131 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience

His main research concerns Neuroscience, GABAergic, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation and Nerve net. In Neuroscience, Peter Somogyi works on issues like Glutamatergic, which are connected to Postsynaptic potential. His work is dedicated to discovering how GABAergic, gamma-Aminobutyric acid are connected with Somatostatin and other disciplines.

His Hippocampus research focuses on subjects like Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, which are linked to Local field potential, Transcriptome, Cell type, Neurotransmission and Single-cell analysis. His Nerve net research includes elements of Neuropeptide, Rats sprague dawley, Cellular neuroscience and Sprague dawley. His Pyramidal cell research includes themes of Dendritic spine and Schaffer collateral.
