Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Pharmacology
  • Psychiatry

Richard W. Foltin spends much of his time researching Anesthesia, Placebo, Self-administration, Pharmacology and Abstinence. His Anesthesia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Randomized controlled trial, Cocaine dependence, Mood, Craving and Heart rate. Richard W. Foltin works mostly in the field of Placebo, limiting it down to topics relating to Oral administration and, in certain cases, Psychomotor learning, Methamphetamine and Toxicity, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Self-administration research is included under the broader classification of Internal medicine. His Pharmacology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dopamine and Blood pressure. Richard W. Foltin interconnects Marijuana use and Cannabis in the investigation of issues within Abstinence.

His most cited work include:

  • Relationship between subjective effects of cocaine and dopamine transporter occupancy (566 citations)
  • Abstinence symptoms following smoked marijuana in humans. (295 citations)
  • Amphetamine-Induced Dopamine Release: Markedly Blunted in Cocaine Dependence and Predictive of the Choice to Self-Administer Cocaine (280 citations)

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

Richard W. Foltin mainly focuses on Anesthesia, Self-administration, Placebo, Psychiatry and Internal medicine. His studies in Anesthesia integrate themes in fields like Subjective effects, Blood pressure, Heart rate, Abstinence and Craving. His Self-administration study deals with the bigger picture of Pharmacology.

His Placebo study also includes

  • Oral administration which is related to area like Toxicity,
  • Cannabis, which have a strong connection to Dronabinol. His research in Internal medicine focuses on subjects like Endocrinology, which are connected to Meal and Animal science. His research integrates issues of Methamphetamine, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance and Shift work in his study of Mood.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anesthesia (34.30%)
  • Self-administration (30.92%)
  • Placebo (26.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Self-administration (30.92%)
  • Psychiatry (23.67%)
  • Addiction (13.53%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Self-administration, Psychiatry, Addiction, Clinical psychology and Cannabis. His Self-administration research includes themes of Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Placebo and Drug. In general Psychiatry study, his work on Mood often relates to the realm of Transmission, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His work deals with themes such as Lorcaserin, Abstinence and Nabilone, which intersect with Cannabis. His Abstinence study incorporates themes from Cue induced craving, Craving and Anesthesia, Lorazepam. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Subjective effects, Cocaine abuse and Morning.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Impact of social status and antidepressant treatment on neurogenesis in the baboon hippocampus. (49 citations)
  • The effects of subanesthetic ketamine infusions on motivation to quit and cue-induced craving in cocaine-dependent research volunteers. (47 citations)
  • Relationship between rate of infusion and reinforcing strength of oxycodone in humans (44 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Pharmacology

Richard W. Foltin mostly deals with Ketamine, Self-administration, Pharmacology, Cocaine dependence and Context. His studies examine the connections between Ketamine and genetics, as well as such issues in Craving, with regards to Crossover study, Stimulant, Psychopharmacology, Receptor antagonist and Dopamine agonist. His Self-administration research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fixed dose, Rate of infusion, Random order and Oxycodone, Opioid.

He has researched Pharmacology in several fields, including Receptor, Central nervous system and Immunology, Vaccination. His work is dedicated to discovering how Cocaine dependence, Cue induced craving are connected with Anesthesia and other disciplines. Richard W. Foltin has included themes like Abstinence and Drug in his Anesthesia study.
