What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Samuel F. Berkovic mainly investigates Epilepsy, Genetics, Pediatrics, Neuroscience and Internal medicine.
His Epilepsy research includes themes of Central nervous system disease and Electroencephalography.
His Pediatrics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Surgery, Seizure types, Dravet syndrome, Psychiatry and Age of onset.
Specifically, his work in Neuroscience is concerned with the study of Idiopathic generalized epilepsy.
In his study, Autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy is strongly linked to Endocrinology, which falls under the umbrella field of Internal medicine.
His research in Temporal lobe intersects with topics in Ictal, Magnetic resonance imaging, Hippocampal formation and Pathology.
