Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Alzheimer's disease

His primary scientific interests are in Pathology, Alzheimer's disease, Internal medicine, Dementia and Frontotemporal dementia. His Pathology research focuses on C9orf72 and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. His studies deal with areas such as Biomarker, Positron emission tomography, Nuclear medicine and Amyloid as well as Alzheimer's disease.

His studies in Positron emission tomography integrate themes in fields like Concordance, Neuroimaging and Medical imaging. His Internal medicine research incorporates themes from Differential diagnosis and Oncology. His Frontotemporal dementia study incorporates themes from Genetics and Apolipoprotein E.

His most cited work include:

  • Classification of primary progressive aphasia and its variants (2532 citations)
  • Null mutations in progranulin cause ubiquitin-positive frontotemporal dementia linked to chromosome 17q21 (1147 citations)
  • Functional anatomy of a common semantic system for words and pictures (1034 citations)

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

Neuroscience, Pathology, Disease, Internal medicine and Frontotemporal dementia are his primary areas of study. His Pathology study is mostly concerned with Amyloid and Alzheimer's disease. The study incorporates disciplines such as Neurology, Cerebrospinal fluid and Bioinformatics in addition to Disease.

The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Gastroenterology and Oncology. His Frontotemporal dementia research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genetics and Atrophy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Apolipoprotein E and Cognition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (21.71%)
  • Pathology (22.48%)
  • Disease (19.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Frontotemporal dementia (18.10%)
  • Disease (19.24%)
  • Internal medicine (20.76%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Frontotemporal dementia, Disease, Internal medicine, Pathology and C9orf72. His Frontotemporal dementia study introduces a deeper knowledge of Dementia. His Dementia research includes themes of Genotype and Biomarker discovery.

His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology. His Tauopathy, Neuropathology and Frontotemporal lobar degeneration study in the realm of Pathology interacts with subjects such as Amyloid pathology. The Frontotemporal lobar degeneration study combines topics in areas such as Neurofibrillary tangle and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Age at symptom onset and death and disease duration in genetic frontotemporal dementia: an international retrospective cohort study. (43 citations)
  • Recommendations to distinguish behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia from psychiatric disorders (21 citations)
  • Plasma glial fibrillary acidic protein is raised in progranulin-associated frontotemporal dementia. (18 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cognition

His primary areas of study are Frontotemporal dementia, Dementia, Internal medicine, Disease and C9orf72. His work carried out in the field of Frontotemporal dementia brings together such families of science as Pathological, Cohort study, Apathy, Pediatrics and Atrophy. His research integrates issues of Apolipoprotein E, Biomarker discovery and Amyloid in his study of Dementia.

His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Gastroenterology, Oncology and Cardiology. His C9orf72 study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biomarker and Frontotemporal lobar degeneration. In his work, Pathology is strongly intertwined with Hippocampal formation, which is a subfield of Frontotemporal lobar degeneration.
