Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Receptor

His primary areas of investigation include NMDA receptor, Receptor, Neuroscience, GABAA receptor and Cell biology. His NMDA receptor research focuses on Glutamate receptor and how it relates to Pharmacology, Neuroprotection and Stimulation. His Receptor research includes themes of Cell, Endocrinology and Transfection.

His work on Neurotransmission expands to the thematically related Neuroscience. His GABAA receptor research incorporates elements of Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Allosteric regulation. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as HEK 293 cells and Granule cell.

His most cited work include:

  • Activity-dependent decrease in NMDA receptor responses during development of the visual cortex (652 citations)
  • Functional and pharmacological differences between recombinant N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. (568 citations)
  • Neurosteroids act on recombinant human GABAA receptors (460 citations)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, GABAA receptor, Receptor, NMDA receptor and Cell biology. Stefano Vicini studied Neuroscience and Neurotransmission that intersect with Synaptic plasticity. He has included themes like gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Biophysics, Allosteric regulation and Pharmacology in his GABAA receptor study.

His study in Receptor is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Molecular biology, Endocrinology, Transfection and Alpha. Stefano Vicini has researched NMDA receptor in several fields, including Glutamate receptor, Kainic acid and PDZ domain. He interconnects Dendritic spine, Biochemistry, Neuron, HEK 293 cells and Long-term potentiation in the investigation of issues within Cell biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (50.26%)
  • GABAA receptor (29.02%)
  • Receptor (26.42%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Neuroscience (50.26%)
  • Hippocampal formation (11.40%)
  • Inhibitory postsynaptic potential (21.24%)

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

Stefano Vicini mainly investigates Neuroscience, Hippocampal formation, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Parvalbumin. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Synaptic plasticity, Glutamate receptor and Neurotransmission. The various areas that Stefano Vicini examines in his Glutamate receptor study include NMDA receptor, Memantine and Cognition.

The concepts of his Hippocampal formation study are interwoven with issues in Stimulus, Glutamatergic, Local field potential and Premovement neuronal activity. The Excitatory postsynaptic potential study combines topics in areas such as Striatum and Medium spiny neuron. In his study, Cerebral cortex is inextricably linked to Cell biology, which falls within the broad field of Internal medicine.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Stress increases GABAergic neurotransmission in CRF neurons of the central amygdala and bed nucleus stria terminalis. (40 citations)
  • Loss of CLOCK Results in Dysfunction of Brain Circuits Underlying Focal Epilepsy (34 citations)
  • EphA7 signaling guides cortical dendritic development and spine maturation (24 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Receptor

Stefano Vicini spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, GABAergic, Hippocampal formation and Neurotransmission. Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Epilepsy, Dendritic spine and Cerebral cortex are among the areas of Neuroscience where Stefano Vicini concentrates his study. His studies deal with areas such as Synaptic plasticity, Nerve net and Glutamate receptor, Metabotropic glutamate receptor, Agonist as well as Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

His research in Inhibitory postsynaptic potential focuses on subjects like Parvalbumin, which are connected to Memory consolidation, Cell type, Neuroplasticity and Cortex. His Neurotransmission study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Neurogenesis, Signal transduction, Synaptogenesis and Cell biology. Within one scientific family, Stefano Vicini focuses on topics pertaining to Patch clamp under Striatum, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Endocrinology.
