Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging

Susan M. Courtney focuses on Neuroscience, Working memory, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Spatial memory and Visual memory. Posterior parietal cortex, Extrastriate cortex, Attentional control, Cortex and Visual cortex are the primary areas of interest in her Neuroscience study. Her Posterior parietal cortex study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Brain activity and meditation, Neural activity, Visual field and N2pc.

Her research in Working memory intersects with topics in Cognitive psychology, Supplementary eye field, Supplementary motor area, Anterior cingulate cortex and Prefrontal cortex. Her studies in Functional magnetic resonance imaging integrate themes in fields like Object, Object type, Representation and Task. Her Spatial memory research integrates issues from Superior frontal sulcus and Visual short-term memory.

Her most cited work include:

  • An Area Specialized for Spatial Working Memory in Human Frontal Cortex (823 citations)
  • Transient and sustained activity in a distributed neural system for human working memory (820 citations)
  • Object and Spatial Visual Working Memory Activate Separate Neural Systems in Human Cortex (747 citations)

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

Working memory, Cognitive psychology, Neuroscience, Cognition and Prefrontal cortex are her primary areas of study. Susan M. Courtney does research in Working memory, focusing on Spatial memory specifically. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Parietal lobe, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Middle frontal gyrus, Supplementary motor area and Recognition memory.

Her studies link White matter with Neuroscience. Her Posterior parietal cortex study combines topics in areas such as Attentional control and Visual cortex. Her Attentional control study which covers Extrastriate cortex that intersects with Visual field.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Working memory (95.62%)
  • Cognitive psychology (78.10%)
  • Neuroscience (70.80%)

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

  • Cognition (45.26%)
  • Working memory (95.62%)
  • Electroencephalography (32.12%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Cognition, Working memory, Electroencephalography, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance and White matter. Her work deals with themes such as Diffusion MRI and Audiology, which intersect with Cognition. Her work in Working memory addresses issues such as Inferior frontal gyrus, which are connected to fields such as Occipital lobe and Cognitive skill.

Her Electroencephalography study typically links adjacent topics like Cognitive psychology. Her work on Sensory system is typically connected to Value as part of general Cognitive psychology study, connecting several disciplines of science. Her Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance study is concerned with the field of Neuroscience as a whole.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Age-related differences in the structural and effective connectivity of cognitive control: a combined fMRI and DTI study of mental arithmetic (11 citations)
  • Information processing biases in the brain: Implications for decision-making and self-governance. (6 citations)
  • Information processing biases in the brain: Implications for decision-making and self-governance. (6 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging

Her primary scientific interests are in Working memory, Regret, Information processing, Social psychology and Self-governance. Working memory is a subfield of Cognition that Susan M. Courtney explores. Her research on Cognition focuses in particular on Inferior frontal gyrus.

Her White matter study incorporates themes from Occipital lobe, Neuroscience, Electroencephalography, Cognitive skill and Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance. Her Control investigation overlaps with other areas such as Audiology, Young adult, Diffusion MRI, Fasciculus and Functional magnetic resonance imaging.
