Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience
  • Neurotransmitter

Thierry Bal mainly investigates Neuroscience, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, GABAB receptor, Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Membrane potential. His study connects Sagittal plane and Neuroscience. His research in Inhibitory postsynaptic potential tackles topics such as Lateral geniculate nucleus which are related to areas like Premovement neuronal activity, Anatomy and Thalamic reticular nucleus.

The Excitatory postsynaptic potential study combines topics in areas such as Biophysics, Depolarization and Bursting. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Reversal potential under Membrane potential, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Tetrodotoxin. His work carried out in the field of Cerebral cortex brings together such families of science as Recurrent thalamo-cortical resonance, Reticular connective tissue, Sensory system, Basal forebrain and Sleep spindle.

His most cited work include:

  • SLEEP AND AROUSAL: Thalamocortical Mechanisms (1057 citations)
  • Cellular mechanisms of a synchronized oscillation in the thalamus (686 citations)
  • Ionic mechanisms underlying synchronized oscillations and propagating waves in a model of ferret thalamic slices (315 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Membrane potential and Electrophysiology. His Neuroscience study focuses mostly on Cerebral cortex, Thalamus, Bursting, Sensory system and Neuron. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and GABAB receptor.

His study in Excitatory postsynaptic potential is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cortex, Sleep in non-human animals and Noise. His Membrane potential study combines topics in areas such as Machine learning, Biological system, Synaptic noise and Visual cortex. His work deals with themes such as Compensation and Axon, which intersect with Electrophysiology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (58.43%)
  • Inhibitory postsynaptic potential (29.21%)
  • Excitatory postsynaptic potential (26.97%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (58.43%)
  • Sleep in non-human animals (4.49%)
  • Excitatory postsynaptic potential (26.97%)

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

Thierry Bal mostly deals with Neuroscience, Sleep in non-human animals, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Acetylcholine receptor and Inhibitory postsynaptic potential. The Slow-wave sleep research Thierry Bal does as part of his general Sleep in non-human animals study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Temporal statistics, High activity and Memory formation, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Thierry Bal has included themes like Cerebral cortex and Cholinergic in his Excitatory postsynaptic potential study.

His Cerebral cortex study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Neuromodulation. He performs multidisciplinary study on Neuromodulation and Sleep and memory in his works.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Cholinergic Switch between Two Types of Slow Waves in Cerebral Cortex. (13 citations)
  • A framework to reconcile frequency scaling measurements, from intracellular recordings, local-field potentials, up to EEG and MEG signals. (12 citations)
  • Cholinergic switch between two different types of slow waves in cerebral cortex (1 citations)
