Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Dopamine
  • Neuron
  • Internal medicine

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Dopamine, Ventral tegmental area, Dopaminergic and Glutamate receptor. His research in Neuroscience intersects with topics in Glutamatergic and Neurotransmission. His research on Internal medicine and Endocrinology is centered around Dopamine.

His study in the fields of Hypothalamus, Central nervous system and Ratón under the domain of Internal medicine overlaps with other disciplines such as Diphtheria toxin. His study looks at the relationship between Dopaminergic and fields such as Striatum, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Glutamate receptor study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as NMDA receptor, Dopamine Uptake Inhibitors, Nucleus accumbens and Dopamine Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins.

His most cited work include:

  • NPY/AgRP Neurons Are Essential for Feeding in Adult Mice but Can Be Ablated in Neonates (793 citations)
  • Dopaminergic terminals in the nucleus accumbens but not the dorsal striatum corelease glutamate. (390 citations)
  • Vesicular Glutamate Transport Promotes Dopamine Storage and Glutamate Corelease In Vivo (277 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Dopamine, Glutamate receptor, Ventral tegmental area and Glutamatergic. His biological study deals with issues like Neurotransmission, which deal with fields such as Synaptic vesicle and Retina. Internal medicine and Endocrinology are the main areas of his Dopamine studies.

His Glutamate receptor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Laterodorsal tegmental nucleus, Anatomy, Dopamine Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins and Excitatory postsynaptic potential. Ventral tegmental area is often connected to Axon in his work. Thomas S. Hnasko interconnects Pedunculopontine Tegmental Nucleus and Spinal cord in the investigation of issues within Glutamatergic.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (106.85%)
  • Dopamine (64.38%)
  • Glutamate receptor (50.68%)

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

  • Neuroscience (106.85%)
  • Dopamine (64.38%)
  • Neuron (36.99%)

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

Thomas S. Hnasko mainly investigates Neuroscience, Dopamine, Neuron, Glutamate receptor and Glutamatergic. When carried out as part of a general Neuroscience research project, his work on Striatum, Optogenetics, Addiction and Ventral pallidum is frequently linked to work in Mechanism, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His research on Dopamine focuses in particular on Ventral tegmental area.

His work carried out in the field of Ventral tegmental area brings together such families of science as Nicotine, Nucleus accumbens and Neurotransmitter. His research integrates issues of Age related, Neurodegeneration and Neurotransmission in his study of Neuron. The Glutamate receptor study combines topics in areas such as Pedunculopontine Tegmental Nucleus, Cholinergic, Cholinergic neuron and Tegmentum, Mesopontine.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ventral pallidum is essential for cocaine relapse after voluntary abstinence in rats. (20 citations)
  • The NeuroD6 Subtype of VTA Neurons Contributes to Psychostimulant Sensitization and Behavioral Reinforcement (16 citations)
  • The NeuroD6 Subtype of VTA Neurons Contributes to Psychostimulant Sensitization and Behavioral Reinforcement (16 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Dopamine
  • Neuron

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Dopamine, Ventral tegmental area, Optogenetics and Glutamate receptor. His study in Glutamatergic extends to Neuroscience with its themes. His work deals with themes such as Nucleus accumbens, Stimulation and Vesicular monoamine transporter 2, which intersect with Optogenetics.

His Neuroplasticity research includes themes of Neurotransmitter, Premovement neuronal activity and Nicotine. The concepts of his Neuron study are interwoven with issues in Axon and Tyrosine hydroxylase. His Laterodorsal tegmental nucleus research incorporates themes from Pedunculopontine Tegmental Nucleus, Cholinergic, Cholinergic neuron and Mesopontine.
