Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Dopamine

His primary scientific interests are in Amygdala, Neuroscience, Temperament, Brain activity and meditation and Electroencephalography. His work in Amygdala covers topics such as Primate which are related to areas like Central nucleus of the amygdala. His research combines Benzodiazepine and Neuroscience.

His Electroencephalography research includes elements of Central nervous system, Corticotropin-releasing hormone and Endophenotype. The Corticotropin-releasing hormone study combines topics in areas such as Cerebrospinal fluid and Peptide hormone. His study looks at the intersection of Frontal lobe and topics like Analysis of variance with Hydrocortisone and Glucocorticoid.

His most cited work include:

  • The Role of the Central Nucleus of the Amygdala in Mediating Fear and Anxiety in the Primate. (318 citations)
  • Asymmetric frontal brain activity, cortisol, and behavior associated with fearful temperament in rhesus monkeys. (263 citations)
  • Defensive behaviors in infant rhesus monkeys: environmental cues and neurochemical regulation (252 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Neuroscience, Amygdala and Developmental psychology. Steven E. Shelton frequently studies issues relating to Receptor and Neuroscience. The Central nucleus of the amygdala and Stria terminalis research Steven E. Shelton does as part of his general Amygdala study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Temperament and Freezing behavior, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Arousal, Psychopathology, Behavioral inhibition, Physiology and Depression. His work deals with themes such as Orbitofrontal cortex and Affect, which intersect with Primate. His Electroencephalography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Frontal lobe, Corticotropin-releasing hormone and Endophenotype.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (42.50%)
  • Endocrinology (41.25%)
  • Neuroscience (27.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2015)?

  • Neuroscience (27.50%)
  • Amygdala (21.25%)
  • Temperament (11.25%)

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

Steven E. Shelton mostly deals with Neuroscience, Amygdala, Temperament, Brain mapping and Central nucleus of the amygdala. His work in Prefrontal cortex, Stria terminalis, Functional imaging and Brain activity and meditation is related to Neuroscience. His research integrates issues of Endocrinology and Internal medicine in his study of Prefrontal cortex.

His studies deal with areas such as Lesion, Orbitofrontal cortex, Affect and Primate as well as Stria terminalis. His Brain activity and meditation research integrates issues from Hydrocortisone, Psychopathology, Central nervous system and Glucocorticoid. His Amygdala study combines topics in areas such as Receptor and Functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Between 2009 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Amygdalar and hippocampal substrates of anxious temperament differ in their heritability (164 citations)
  • Evolutionarily conserved prefrontal-amygdalar dysfunction in early-life anxiety (98 citations)
  • In-Air Rangefinding With an AlN Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasound Transducer (91 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Amygdala, Temporal lobe, Brain mapping and Novelty. Throughout his Temporal lobe studies, Steven E. Shelton incorporates elements of other sciences such as Hippocampus, Brain activity and meditation, Anxiety disorder, Temperament and Hippocampal formation. His Brain mapping study incorporates themes from Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Prefrontal cortex, Cognition, Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.
