Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Optics

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Dendritic spine, Neuron, Calcium imaging and Excitatory postsynaptic potential. Neuroscience is represented through his Neocortex, Cerebral cortex, Biological neural network, Electrophysiology and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential research. His Dendritic spine study combines topics in areas such as Synaptic plasticity, Motility, Cell biology and Spine.

Many of his research projects under Neuron are closely connected to Nomenclature with Nomenclature, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. Rafael Yuste has researched Calcium imaging in several fields, including Photostimulation, Voltage-dependent calcium channel, Dynamics, Anatomy and Microscopy. He focuses mostly in the field of Excitatory postsynaptic potential, narrowing it down to matters related to Postsynaptic potential and, in some cases, NMDA receptor.

His most cited work include:

  • Petilla terminology: nomenclature of features of GABAergic interneurons of the cerebral cortex (1104 citations)
  • Morphological changes in dendritic spines associated with long-term synaptic plasticity. (1054 citations)
  • Dendritic spines as basic functional units of neuronal integration. (814 citations)

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

Rafael Yuste spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Calcium imaging, Dendritic spine, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Visual cortex. Neocortex, Biological neural network, Neuron, Cerebral cortex and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential are the primary areas of interest in his Neuroscience study. His Calcium imaging study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lernaean Hydra, Electrophysiology, Sensory system and Premovement neuronal activity.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Dendritic spine, Spine are connected with Ultrastructure and other disciplines. His Excitatory postsynaptic potential research incorporates elements of Hippocampal formation, Biophysics and Postsynaptic potential. The Visual cortex study combines topics in areas such as Stimulus, Visual perception and Stimulation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (63.43%)
  • Calcium imaging (26.29%)
  • Dendritic spine (22.29%)

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

  • Neuroscience (63.43%)
  • Calcium imaging (26.29%)
  • Biological neural network (15.14%)

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

Rafael Yuste mainly investigates Neuroscience, Calcium imaging, Biological neural network, Dendritic spine and Visual cortex. As part of one scientific family, Rafael Yuste deals mainly with the area of Neuroscience, narrowing it down to issues related to the Cell type, and often Single-cell analysis. His work carried out in the field of Calcium imaging brings together such families of science as Premovement neuronal activity, Lernaean Hydra, Hydra vulgaris, Myocyte and Local field potential.

His study on Biological neural network also encompasses disciplines like

  • Holographic imaging, Stimulation, Orientation and Lens most often made with reference to Biomedical engineering,
  • Spatial light modulator which is related to area like Microscopy and Two-photon excitation microscopy. Rafael Yuste usually deals with Dendritic spine and limits it to topics linked to Ultrastructure and Dendrite, Spine, Axon and Spine apparatus. His Visual cortex study incorporates themes from Synaptic plasticity, Sensory system and Optogenetics.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Conserved cell types with divergent features in human versus mouse cortex (406 citations)
  • Controlling Visually Guided Behavior by Holographic Recalling of Cortical Ensembles. (77 citations)
  • Comparative Evaluation of Genetically Encoded Voltage Indicators. (62 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuron
  • Optics

Rafael Yuste focuses on Neuroscience, Calcium imaging, Cortex, Population and Cell type. His Neuroscience study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Lernaean Hydra. His Calcium imaging study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Hydra vulgaris.

His study looks at the intersection of Cell type and topics like Single-cell analysis with Middle temporal gyrus, Cerebral cortex and Human brain. His work investigates the relationship between Middle temporal gyrus and topics such as Excitatory postsynaptic potential that intersect with problems in Ultrastructure, Somatosensory system, Dendritic spine, GABAA receptor and GABAergic. His Neocortex research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sensory cortex, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Epilepsy.
