Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Gene
  • Neurotransmitter

Her primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Glutamate receptor, Biological neural network, Vesicular Glutamate Transport Protein 2 and Metabotropic glutamate receptor 6. Her work on Dorsal root ganglion as part of general Neuroscience research is often related to Population, thus linking different fields of science. Her Glutamate receptor research includes themes of Genetic enhancement and Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

Her Biological neural network research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hyperalgesia, Spinal Cord Dorsal Horn, ENCODE and Mammalian nervous system. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Vesicular Glutamate Transport Protein 2, Vesicular Glutamate Transport Proteins are connected with Vesicular monoamine transporter and Vesicular glutamate transporter 1 and other disciplines. Her Metabotropic glutamate receptor 6 research includes elements of Ionotropic effect, Neurotransmission, Abnormal synaptic transmission and Neurotransmitter.

Her most cited work include:

  • VGLUTs define subsets of excitatory neurons and suggest novel roles for glutamate (575 citations)
  • Excitatory amino acid transporters: a family in flux. (300 citations)
  • Injury-induced mechanical hypersensitivity requires C-low threshold mechanoreceptors (300 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Glutamate receptor, Neurotransmission, Glutamatergic and Excitatory postsynaptic potential. She integrates Neuroscience with Population in her research. She has included themes like Transporter, Neurotransmitter, Neuron, Glutamic acid and Synapse in her Glutamate receptor study.

The concepts of her Neurotransmitter study are interwoven with issues in Metabotropic glutamate receptor 6 and Neuroplasticity. In her research on the topic of Neurotransmission, In vitro, Amino acid transporter and Exocyst is strongly related with Cell biology. Rebecca P. Seal interconnects Retina and Cholinergic in the investigation of issues within Glutamatergic.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (62.30%)
  • Glutamate receptor (39.34%)
  • Neurotransmission (19.67%)

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

  • Neuroscience (62.30%)
  • Chronic pain (6.56%)
  • Disease (3.28%)

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

Rebecca P. Seal spends much of her time researching Neuroscience, Chronic pain, Disease, Glutamate receptor and Neuron. Her study connects Dorsum and Neuroscience. Her study looks at the intersection of Disease and topics like Nucleic acid with Cell biology.

The Glutamate receptor study combines topics in areas such as Serotonin transporter, Raphe nuclei, Serotonergic, Serotonin and Ventral tegmental area. Her studies deal with areas such as Hair cell, Glutamatergic, Spiral ganglion, Cochlear nucleus and Synapse as well as Neuron. Her work in Somatosensory system covers topics such as Mechanosensation which are related to areas like Spinal cord.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Uncovering the Cells and Circuits of Touch in Normal and Pathological Settings. (42 citations)
  • A Critical Role for Dopamine D5 Receptors in Pain Chronicity in Male Mice. (38 citations)
  • A Functional Topographic Map for Spinal Sensorimotor Reflexes (9 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Neurotransmitter

Her main research concerns Neuroscience, Somatosensory system, Sensorimotor integration, Scratching and Reflex. Her study in the field of Spinal cord also crosses realms of Receptor antagonist. Her Spinal cord study combines topics in areas such as Mechanotransduction, Transduction, Sensory system and Sensation.

Her Receptor antagonist research spans across into fields like Receptor expression, Hyperalgesia, Chronic pain, Dopamine and Dopaminergic. Rebecca P. Seal has researched Receptor expression in several fields, including Agonist and Neuropathic pain. Her Sensorimotor integration study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Dorsum, Topographic map and Excitatory postsynaptic potential.
