Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Central nervous system
  • Cerebral cortex

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Anatomy, Periaqueductal gray, Tegmentum and Squirrel monkey. Neuroscience is frequently linked to Communication in his study. His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nucleus ambiguus, Nucleus, Solitary tract nucleus and Cortex.

In his research, Uwe Jürgens undertakes multidisciplinary study on Tegmentum and Substantia innominata. In the field of Squirrel monkey, his study on Saimiri sciureus overlaps with subjects such as Vocal fold adduction. His work deals with themes such as Motor cortex and Anterior cingulate cortex, which intersect with Reticular formation.

His most cited work include:

  • Neural pathways underlying vocal control. (636 citations)
  • Cerebral representation of vocalization in the squirrel monkey. (331 citations)
  • Role of the periaqueductal grey in vocal expression of emotion (297 citations)

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

Uwe Jürgens mainly investigates Neuroscience, Anatomy, Squirrel monkey, Reticular formation and Periaqueductal gray. His work is connected to Midbrain, Inferior colliculus, Tegmentum, Motor cortex and Pons, as a part of Neuroscience. His Anatomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Parabrachial area, Solitary tract nucleus, Brainstem, Cortex and Nucleus ambiguus.

His Squirrel monkey research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Auditory cortex, Central nervous system, Premovement neuronal activity and Amygdala. His study in Reticular formation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Parvocellular cell, Hypoglossal nucleus, Medulla oblongata and Motor coordination. His Periaqueductal gray research integrates issues from Anterior cingulate cortex and Lateral reticular formation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (70.77%)
  • Anatomy (50.77%)
  • Squirrel monkey (47.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2009)?

  • Neuroscience (70.77%)
  • Squirrel monkey (47.69%)
  • Anatomy (50.77%)

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

Uwe Jürgens focuses on Neuroscience, Squirrel monkey, Anatomy, Premovement neuronal activity and Reticular formation. Uwe Jürgens conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Neuroscience and Spinal trigeminal nucleus through his works. His work carried out in the field of Anatomy brings together such families of science as Paramedian pontine reticular formation, Lateral reticular nucleus and Midbrain.

His Premovement neuronal activity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Single-unit recording, Midbrain tegmentum and Tegmentum. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Motor cortex, Nucleus ambiguus and Periaqueductal gray. His studies in Periaqueductal gray integrate themes in fields like Anterior cingulate cortex, Brain stimulation, Cortex and Amygdala.

Between 2003 and 2009, his most popular works were:

  • The neural control of vocalization in mammals: a review. (296 citations)
  • Acoustical correlates of affective prosody. (104 citations)
  • On the Role of the Pontine Brainstem in Vocal Pattern Generation: A Telemetric Single-Unit Recording Study in the Squirrel Monkey (67 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Central nervous system
  • Cerebral cortex

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Reticular formation, Anatomy, Pretectal area and Solitary tract nucleus. Many of his research projects under Neuroscience are closely connected to Medial parabrachial nucleus and Dorsal raphe nucleus with Medial parabrachial nucleus and Dorsal raphe nucleus, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Reticular formation study incorporates themes from Motor cortex, Basal ganglia, Anterior cingulate cortex and Medulla oblongata.

His study in the field of Squirrel monkey also crosses realms of Substantia innominata and Ventral tegmental area. The Pretectal area study combines topics in areas such as Inferior colliculus, Nucleus accumbens, Globus pallidus and Zona incerta. His research on Solitary tract nucleus often connects related areas such as Superior colliculus.
