Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Ecology
  • Neuroscience

His primary scientific interests are in Developmental psychology, Neuroscience, Social relation, Juvenile and Central nervous system. The various areas that Sergio M. Pellis examines in his Developmental psychology study include Social brain and Cognitive science. His study in the field of Long evans and Cerebral cortex also crosses realms of Skilled reaching, Body movement and Behavioral analysis.

His Social relation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Social isolation and Social group. His Juvenile research includes elements of Agonistic behaviour, Cortex, Defeminization, Nape and Testosterone propionate. Sergio M. Pellis combines subjects such as Lesion, Prefrontal cortex, Orbitofrontal cortex and Frontal cortex with his study of Central nervous system.

His most cited work include:

  • The impairments in reaching and the movements of compensation in rats with motor cortex lesions: an endpoint, videorecording, and movement notation analysis. (254 citations)
  • Multiple differences in the play fighting of male and female rats. Implications for the causes and functions of play (177 citations)
  • The Influence of Phylogeny on the Social Behaviour of Macaques (Primates: Cercopithecidae, genus Macaca) (176 citations)

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

Sergio M. Pellis mostly deals with Developmental psychology, Juvenile, Neuroscience, Social psychology and Communication. His Developmental psychology research focuses on subjects like Social relation, which are linked to Animal model. His Juvenile research incorporates elements of Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Male rats, Weaning and Nape.

Sergio M. Pellis usually deals with Neuroscience and limits it to topics linked to Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Parkinson's disease. His Social psychology research includes themes of Adult male and Biting. The Central nervous system study combines topics in areas such as Cerebral cortex, Lesion and Cortex.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (26.40%)
  • Juvenile (21.91%)
  • Neuroscience (20.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Social play (8.99%)
  • Juvenile (21.91%)
  • Developmental psychology (26.40%)

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

Sergio M. Pellis focuses on Social play, Juvenile, Developmental psychology, Prefrontal cortex and Communication. His Social play research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Adaptive behavior, Cognition and Foraging. Sergio M. Pellis focuses mostly in the field of Juvenile, narrowing it down to topics relating to Period and, in certain cases, Sexual maturity and Age related.

His study ties his expertise on Long evans rats together with the subject of Developmental psychology. His Prefrontal cortex research is included under the broader classification of Neuroscience. His Communication study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Male rats, Hand movements and Sniffing.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Do juvenile rats use specific ultrasonic calls to coordinate their social play (16 citations)
  • Is play a behavior system, and, if so, what kind? (12 citations)
  • Chapter 12 – Rough-and-Tumble Play and the Development of the Social Brain: What Do We Know, How Do We Know It, and What Do We Need to Know? (6 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Ecology
  • Neuroscience

His scientific interests lie mostly in Social play, Context, Cognition, Non human primate and Object. The study incorporates disciplines such as Juvenile, Communication and Sniffing in addition to Social play. Context is connected with Physiology, Postnatal day, Anxiety, Distress and Call rate in his study.

His work on Executive functions, Prefrontal cortex and Social brain as part of general Cognition research is often related to Know-how, thus linking different fields of science. His Non human primate research incorporates a variety of disciplines, including Structural organization, Structure function and Evolutionary biology.
