Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Neuroscience

His main research concerns Olfaction, Olfactory system, Audiology, Neuroscience and Odor. The various areas that Thomas Hummel examines in his Olfaction study include Trigeminal nerve, Developmental psychology and Pathology. His Olfactory system research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Olfactory bulb, Olfactory sulcus, Parkinson's disease and Anatomy.

His studies in Audiology integrate themes in fields like Taste, Healthy subjects, Perception and Sensory threshold. His work in Taste covers topics such as Surgery which are related to areas like Pediatrics. His work in Odor addresses issues such as Anesthesia, which are connected to fields such as Nasal administration and Endocrinology.

His most cited work include:

  • ‘Sniffin’ Sticks': Olfactory Performance Assessed by the Combined Testing of Odor Identification, Odor Discrimination and Olfactory Threshold (1491 citations)
  • Normative data for the "Sniffin' Sticks" including tests of odor identification, odor discrimination, and olfactory thresholds: an upgrade based on a group of more than 3,000 subjects. (979 citations)
  • Multicenter investigation of 1,036 subjects using a standardized method for the assessment of olfactory function combining tests of odor identification, odor discrimination, and olfactory thresholds. (596 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Olfaction, Olfactory system, Audiology, Odor and Neuroscience. In his research, Thomas Hummel performs multidisciplinary study on Olfaction and Anosmia. His study in Olfactory system is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Olfactory bulb, Internal medicine and Pathology.

His Audiology research incorporates elements of Test, Event-related potential, Odor identification, Taste and Sensory threshold. His studies deal with areas such as Developmental psychology and Odor discrimination as well as Odor. His studies link Trigeminal nerve with Neuroscience.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Olfaction (43.99%)
  • Olfactory system (36.94%)
  • Audiology (26.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Olfaction (43.99%)
  • Olfactory system (36.94%)
  • Audiology (26.32%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Olfaction, Olfactory system, Audiology, Odor and Anosmia. In his study, Neurology is strongly linked to Parkinson's disease, which falls under the umbrella field of Olfaction. His research in Olfactory system intersects with topics in Olfactory bulb and Internal medicine.

Thomas Hummel usually deals with Audiology and limits it to topics linked to Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Orbitofrontal cortex. As part of the same scientific family, Thomas Hummel usually focuses on Odor, concentrating on Perception and intersecting with Cognitive psychology. His Anosmia study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Hyposmia.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Updated Sniffin’ Sticks normative data based on an extended sample of 9139 subjects (120 citations)
  • More Than Smell-COVID-19 Is Associated With Severe Impairment of Smell, Taste, and Chemesthesis. (109 citations)
  • Olfactory Dysfunction in COVID-19: Diagnosis and Management. (80 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

Thomas Hummel mainly investigates Olfaction, Olfactory system, Anosmia, Audiology and Odor. His research integrates issues of Test and Clinical psychology in his study of Olfaction. The subject of his Olfactory system research is within the realm of Neuroscience.

His Hyposmia research extends to Anosmia, which is thematically connected. His Audiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Taste and Prospective cohort study. In general Odor study, his work on Body odors often relates to the realm of Interaction time, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
