In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Stefan Knecht spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Cognition, White matter and Magnetic resonance imaging.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Neurotrophic factors and Cognitive decline in addition to Neuroscience.
His Cognition research includes elements of Aerobic exercise, Physical exercise, Cingulate cortex and Clinical psychology.
His Magnetic resonance imaging research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Probabilistic logic, Partial volume and Brain mapping.
As part of one scientific family, Stefan Knecht deals mainly with the area of Brain mapping, narrowing it down to issues related to the Stereology, and often Lateralization of brain function and Voxel-based morphometry.
The Temporal lobe study combines topics in areas such as Stroke, Aphasia and Audiology.
Between 2008 and 2017, his most popular works were:
- Caloric restriction improves memory in elderly humans (374 citations)
- Physical activity and memory functions: an interventional study. (332 citations)
- Physical activity and memory functions: are neurotrophins and cerebral gray matter volume the missing link? (187 citations)
