What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Dopamine
- Enzyme
- Apoptosis
Her scientific interests lie mostly in MPTP, Neurodegeneration, Substantia nigra, Dopaminergic and Dopamine.
Her studies in MPTP integrate themes in fields like Neurotoxin, Biochemistry and Pharmacology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Immunology, Neuroscience and Parkinson's disease in addition to Neurodegeneration.
Her study in the field of LRRK2 is also linked to topics like Plant biology.
As part of one scientific family, Vernice Jackson-Lewis deals mainly with the area of Substantia nigra, narrowing it down to issues related to the Neurotoxicity, and often Oxidative stress.
Internal medicine and Endocrinology are the two main areas of interest in her Dopaminergic studies.
Her most cited work include:
- Blockade of Microglial Activation Is Neuroprotective in the 1-Methyl-4-Phenyl-1,2,3,6-Tetrahydropyridine Mouse Model of Parkinson Disease (1054 citations)
- Inducible nitric oxide synthase stimulates dopaminergic neurodegeneration in the MPTP model of Parkinson disease. (916 citations)
- Functional role of caspase-1 and caspase-3 in an ALS transgenic mouse model. (625 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her primary scientific interests are in Substantia nigra, MPTP, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Dopamine.
Her Substantia nigra study is concerned with the larger field of Neuroscience.
Her study in Neuroscience is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Disease and Microglia.
Her MPTP research incorporates elements of Neurotoxicity, Neurotoxin, Biochemistry and Neurodegeneration.
Her study in the fields of Reserpine, Dopamine agonist and Oxidopamine under the domain of Endocrinology overlaps with other disciplines such as Peroxynitrite.
Her studies examine the connections between Dopamine and genetics, as well as such issues in Homovanillic acid, with regards to Mitochondrial respiratory chain.
She most often published in these fields:
- Substantia nigra (44.04%)
- MPTP (41.28%)
- Internal medicine (40.37%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2010-2019)?
- Neuroscience (33.94%)
- Parkinson's disease (31.19%)
- Dopaminergic (32.11%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Vernice Jackson-Lewis mainly investigates Neuroscience, Parkinson's disease, Dopaminergic, MPTP and Substantia nigra.
Neuroscience is closely attributed to Neurodegeneration in her research.
Her Alpha-synuclein study in the realm of Parkinson's disease connects with subjects such as Genetically modified mouse.
Vernice Jackson-Lewis interconnects Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurochemical and Cholinergic neuron in the investigation of issues within Dopaminergic.
Her work carried out in the field of MPTP brings together such families of science as Neurotrophic factors, Etiology and Tyrosine hydroxylase.
Her Substantia nigra research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Microgliosis and Cell biology.
Between 2010 and 2019, her most popular works were:
- Oxidative stress and Parkinson’s disease (373 citations)
- Classic and New Animal Models of Parkinson's Disease (331 citations)
- Neuromelanin Activates Microglia and Induces Degeneration of Dopaminergic Neurons: Implications for Progression of Parkinson’s Disease (144 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Enzyme
- Dopamine
- Apoptosis
Her primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Parkinson's disease, MPTP, Disease and Cell biology.
Her work in Dopaminergic and Substantia nigra are all subfields of Neuroscience research.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including NADPH oxidase, Neuroinflammation and Microglia.
Her MPTP Poisoning study, which is part of a larger body of work in MPTP, is frequently linked to Extramural, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Her Cell biology research incorporates themes from Astrocyte, Induced pluripotent stem cell and Fibroblast growth factor.
Her Neurodegeneration study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Oxidative stress, Neurotoxicity, Pars compacta, Respiratory chain and Microgliosis.
