Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

Rita J. Balice-Gordon mostly deals with Immunology, Autoimmune encephalitis, Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis, Antibody and Neuroscience. Her Immunology study often links to related topics such as Pathology. Her studies in Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis integrate themes in fields like Epitope, Infectious encephalitis and Rituximab.

Her Antibody research includes themes of AMPA receptor and Receptor. Rita J. Balice-Gordon has researched Neuroscience in several fields, including Glutamate receptor and Postsynaptic potential. Her work deals with themes such as Excitatory synapse, Neurotransmission, Postsynaptic density, Silent synapse and Neuromuscular transmission, which intersect with Neuromuscular junction.

Her most cited work include:

  • Anti-NMDA-receptor encephalitis: case series and analysis of the effects of antibodies (1992 citations)
  • Clinical experience and laboratory investigations in patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis (1486 citations)
  • Treatment and prognostic factors for long-term outcome in patients with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis: an observational cohort study (1485 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Neuromuscular junction, Immunology, Motor neuron and Synapse. The concepts of her Neuroscience study are interwoven with issues in Synaptic plasticity, Postsynaptic potential, Gap junction and Neurotransmission. Her Neuromuscular junction study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Acetylcholine receptor, Reinnervation, Anatomy, Motor nerve and Neuromuscular transmission.

Immunology is closely attributed to Pathology in her research. Her Antibody research incorporates themes from Immunohistochemistry, Internal medicine, Hippocampus and Endocrinology. Her Autoimmune encephalitis study incorporates themes from Receptor, Infectious encephalitis and Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (62.11%)
  • Neuromuscular junction (26.32%)
  • Immunology (25.26%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2016)?

  • Immunology (25.26%)
  • Antibody (11.58%)
  • Internal medicine (12.63%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Immunology, Antibody, Internal medicine, Receptor and Autoantibody. Antigen and Autoimmune encephalitis are the core of her Immunology study. While the research belongs to areas of Autoimmune encephalitis, Rita J. Balice-Gordon spends her time largely on the problem of Neurotransmission, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Patch clamp, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Cell biology.

Her study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology, Surgery and Rituximab. The study of Receptor is intertwined with the study of Neuroscience in a number of ways. Rita J. Balice-Gordon interconnects Protein subunit, Shal Potassium Channels, Potassium channel and Virology in the investigation of issues within Autoantibody.

Between 2012 and 2016, her most popular works were:

  • Treatment and prognostic factors for long-term outcome in patients with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis: an observational cohort study (1485 citations)
  • Antibody titres at diagnosis and during follow-up of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis: a retrospective study (483 citations)
  • Encephalitis with refractory seizures, status epilepticus, and antibodies to the GABAA receptor: a case series, characterisation of the antigen, and analysis of the effects of antibodies (344 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuron

Rita J. Balice-Gordon mainly investigates Immunology, Autoimmune encephalitis, Modified Rankin Scale, Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis and Antibody. Her Immunology research focuses on Antigen in particular. The Autoimmune encephalitis study combines topics in areas such as Immunohistochemistry, Surgery, Titer, Epitope and Infectious encephalitis.

Her work in Surgery covers topics such as Internal medicine which are related to areas like Endocrinology. Her Modified Rankin Scale research spans across into areas like Rituximab, Retrospective cohort study and Cohort study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Receptor, AMPA receptor, Open field and Hippocampus in addition to Antibody.
