Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Neuroscience

His scientific interests lie mostly in Hyperalgesia, Nociceptor, Anesthesia, Nociception and Neuropathic pain. His studies deal with areas such as Spinal nerve, Nerve injury, Thermal stimulation and Glabrous skin as well as Hyperalgesia. His Nociceptor research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Neuroscience and Anatomy.

The Anesthesia study which covers Intradermal injection that intersects with Capsaicin. His work in Nociception addresses issues such as Sensitization, which are connected to fields such as Stimulus, Arthritis, Substance P, Chronic pain and Pathophysiology. When carried out as part of a general Neuropathic pain research project, his work on Neuralgia is frequently linked to work in Shingles, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Mechanisms of neuropathic pain. (947 citations)
  • Peripheral and central mechanisms of cutaneous hyperalgesia. (771 citations)
  • Myelinated afferents signal the hyperalgesia associated with nerve injury. (498 citations)

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

Anesthesia, Hyperalgesia, Nociceptor, Neuroscience and Nociception are his primary areas of study. His Anesthesia study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Capsaicin, Pharmacology and Allodynia. His Hyperalgesia research includes themes of Spinal nerve, Intradermal injection and Endocrinology.

His research integrates issues of Stimulus, Nerve conduction velocity, Receptive field and Sensation in his study of Nociceptor. Many of his research projects under Neuroscience are closely connected to Unmyelinated nerve fiber with Unmyelinated nerve fiber, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. He works mostly in the field of Nociception, limiting it down to concerns involving Anatomy and, occasionally, Receptor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anesthesia (62.13%)
  • Hyperalgesia (65.09%)
  • Nociceptor (47.93%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2015)?

  • Anesthesia (62.13%)
  • Neuropathic pain (18.93%)
  • Stimulation (12.43%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Anesthesia, Neuropathic pain, Stimulation, Spinal nerve and Neuroscience. His study in Anesthesia is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hyperalgesia, Electrophysiology, Pharmacology and Spinal cord stimulation. Richard A. Meyer has researched Hyperalgesia in several fields, including Peripheral nerve injury, Endocrinology, Chronic pain and Nerve injury.

Richard A. Meyer has included themes like Threshold of pain and Allodynia in his Neuropathic pain study. As part of his studies on Neuroscience, he frequently links adjacent subjects like Nociceptor. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Capsaicin, Cutaneous receptor and Histamine.

Between 2006 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Psychophysical and Physiological Evidence for Parallel Afferent Pathways Mediating the Sensation of Itch (147 citations)
  • A Role for Polymodal C-Fiber Afferents in Nonhistaminergic Itch (141 citations)
  • Conventional and Kilohertz-frequency Spinal Cord Stimulation Produces Intensity- and Frequency-dependent Inhibition of Mechanical Hypersensitivity in a Rat Model of Neuropathic Pain (120 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Neuroscience

Richard A. Meyer spends much of his time researching Neuropathic pain, Stimulation, Anesthesia, Neuroscience and Histamine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Spinal nerve, Antidromic, Sprague dawley, Rat model and Allodynia in addition to Neuropathic pain. His Anesthesia study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Pharmacology.

His work deals with themes such as Receptor, Polymodal nociceptor and Anatomy, which intersect with Neuroscience. His Histamine research incorporates themes from Capsaicin, C fibres, Nociceptor and Premovement neuronal activity. His research in Sensation intersects with topics in Myelinated nerve fiber, Threshold of pain and Nociception.
