Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Pathology and Synapse are his primary areas of study. Stephen W. Scheff has included themes like Alzheimer's disease and Cognitive decline in his Neuroscience study. Stephen W. Scheff combines subjects such as Spinal cord injury and Spinal cord with his study of Internal medicine.

His Endocrinology study incorporates themes from Lesion and Glutathione. In general Pathology study, his work on Neuropathology often relates to the realm of Ciclosporin, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His work focuses on many connections between Synapse and other disciplines, such as Frontal lobe, that overlap with his field of interest in Temporal lobe, Biopsy, Choline acetyltransferase, Neuropil and Neuroplasticity.

His most cited work include:

  • Synapse loss in frontal cortex biopsies in Alzheimer's disease: Correlation with cognitive severity (1669 citations)
  • Inactivation of the N-CAM gene in mice results in size reduction of the olfactory bulb and deficits in spatial learning. (923 citations)
  • Hippocampal synaptic loss in early Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment (638 citations)

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

Stephen W. Scheff focuses on Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hippocampus and Hippocampal formation. His Neuroscience research incorporates themes from Alzheimer's disease, Neuropathology and Disease. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Anesthesia and Spinal cord.

The various areas that he examines in his Endocrinology study include Axon, Anatomy and Neuroprotection. Stephen W. Scheff works in the field of Hippocampal formation, focusing on Dentate gyrus in particular. His study in Dentate gyrus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Entorhinal cortex and Synaptogenesis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (34.93%)
  • Internal medicine (36.84%)
  • Endocrinology (35.41%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2018)?

  • Neuroscience (34.93%)
  • Hippocampus (27.27%)
  • Alzheimer's disease (14.83%)

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

Stephen W. Scheff mainly investigates Neuroscience, Hippocampus, Alzheimer's disease, Pathology and Internal medicine. His work in Neuroscience is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Pathological. His Hippocampus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hippocampal formation, Inflammation, Neuroplasticity and Cerebral cortex.

His work deals with themes such as Pathogenesis, Dementia, Cognitive decline, Precuneus and Amyloid, which intersect with Alzheimer's disease. His Pathology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Head injury, Gene polymorphism, Calcium, Temporal cortex and Cortex. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Endocrinology, Glutathione S-transferase, Glutathione, Glutathione disulfide and Biochemistry.

Between 2008 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Oxidative stress in the progression of Alzheimer disease in the frontal cortex. (324 citations)
  • Alzheimer’s disease is not “brain aging”: neuropathological, genetic, and epidemiological human studies (197 citations)
  • Mild cognitive impairment: pathology and mechanisms (139 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Dementia, Alzheimer's disease, Pathology and Neuropathology. His research related to Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Dentate gyrus and Neuron loss might be considered part of Neuroscience. His Hippocampal formation research incorporates elements of Postsynaptic potential and Synaptophysin.

His studies in Alzheimer's disease integrate themes in fields like Pathogenesis and Cognitive decline. His research integrates issues of Analysis of variance and Cortex in his study of Pathology. His Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Oxidative stress, Internal medicine and Endocrinology.
