Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Insect
  • Crustacean

His primary scientific interests are in Anatomy, Neuropil, Arthropod, Ventral nerve cord and Neuroscience. His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary biology, Nervous system, Entomostraca, Parthenogenesis and Crustacean. His Neuropil research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Insect and Insect nervous system.

Arthropod is often connected to Malacostraca in his work. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ganglion mother cell and Neuroblast. His Neurogenesis and Neuroanatomy study in the realm of Neuroscience interacts with subjects such as Micro computed tomography, Context and X-ray microtomography.

His most cited work include:

  • A Systematic Nomenclature for the Insect Brain (395 citations)
  • Invertebrate neurophylogeny: suggested terms and definitions for a neuroanatomical glossary (221 citations)
  • Neurophylogeny: Architecture of the nervous system and a fresh view on arthropod phyologeny. (134 citations)

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

Anatomy, Arthropod, Crustacean, Neuropil and Neuroscience are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Anatomy study are interwoven with issues in Evolutionary biology, Ventral nerve cord, Nervous system and Neurogenesis, Cell biology. His Arthropod study often links to related topics such as Centipede.

Crustacean is the topic of his studies on Ecology and Zoology. His Neuropil study incorporates themes from Neuroanatomy and Neuromere. His studies deal with areas such as Neuropeptide and Insect as well as Neuroscience.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anatomy (44.96%)
  • Arthropod (29.46%)
  • Crustacean (24.81%)

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

  • Ecology (19.38%)
  • Crustacean (24.81%)
  • Sensory system (8.53%)

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

Steffen Harzsch mostly deals with Ecology, Crustacean, Sensory system, Neuropil and Olfactory system. His Crustacean study is concerned with the larger field of Zoology. His Neuropil research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cupiennius salei and Jumping spider, Marpissa muscosa.

His Olfactory system study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Evolutionary biology, Parhyale hawaiensis and Poorly differentiated. Steffen Harzsch has included themes like Olfaction and Coenobitidae in his Olfactory Lobe study. His Posterior median research is included under the broader classification of Anatomy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An atlas of larval organogenesis in the European shore crab Carcinus maenas L. (Decapoda, Brachyura, Portunidae) (12 citations)
  • The “amphi”-brains of amphipods: new insights from the neuroanatomy of Parhyale hawaiensis (Dana, 1853) (8 citations)
  • Visual pathways in the brain of the jumping spider Marpissa muscosa. (6 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Insect
  • Crustacean

Steffen Harzsch spends much of his time researching Crustacean, Neuropil, Neuroanatomy, Evolutionary biology and Carcinus maenas. His Crustacean research is under the purview of Zoology. His studies deal with areas such as Parhyale hawaiensis, Olfactory system, Poorly differentiated, Nervous system and Animal model as well as Neuropil.

His Neuroanatomy research includes elements of Rimicaris exoculata, Hydrothermal circulation, Hydrothermal vent and Shrimp. Steffen Harzsch has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Cleaner shrimp, Stenopus hispidus, Antenna and Appendage. His Carcinus maenas research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Salinity, Temperature salinity diagrams, Habitat and Environmental change, Climate change.
