Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Psychiatry

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Cognition and Interoception. His Context research extends to Neuroscience, which is thematically connected. His study in Functional magnetic resonance imaging is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Human brain, Prefrontal cortex and Brain mapping.

W. Kyle Simmons works mostly in the field of Prefrontal cortex, limiting it down to topics relating to Audiology and, in certain cases, Insula, as a part of the same area of interest. W. Kyle Simmons has researched Cognition in several fields, including Concept learning, Construct and Perception. His work in Interoception addresses issues such as Embodied cognition, which are connected to fields such as Conceptualization.

His most cited work include:

  • Circular analysis in systems neuroscience: the dangers of double dipping. (1981 citations)
  • Grounding conceptual knowledge in modality-specific systems. (871 citations)
  • Interoceptive predictions in the brain (603 citations)

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

W. Kyle Simmons focuses on Neuroscience, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Brain mapping, Insula and Interoception. His work on Cerebral cortex, Functional neuroimaging, Nerve net and Neural activity as part of his general Neuroscience study is frequently connected to Cingulate cortex, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Functional magnetic resonance imaging research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Audiology, Developmental psychology, Prefrontal cortex, Human brain and Amygdala.

As a part of the same scientific study, W. Kyle Simmons usually deals with the Brain mapping, concentrating on Resting state fMRI and frequently concerns with Tonic and Functional connectivity. His Insula research includes themes of Insular cortex, Homeostasis, Stimulus, Sensation and Major depressive disorder. His work carried out in the field of Interoception brings together such families of science as Cognitive psychology, Cognition and Embodied cognition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (50.47%)
  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (36.45%)
  • Brain mapping (42.99%)

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

  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (36.45%)
  • Audiology (31.78%)
  • Internal medicine (20.56%)

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

Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Audiology, Internal medicine, Neuroscience and Interoception are his primary areas of study. His Default mode network study, which is part of a larger body of work in Functional magnetic resonance imaging, is frequently linked to Poison control, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Audiology research incorporates elements of Relaxation and Anxiolytic, Anxiety.

Neuroscience and Embodied cognition are frequently intertwined in his study. In his work, Sensation, Sensory cue and Stimulus is strongly intertwined with Insula, which is a subfield of Interoception. W. Kyle Simmons works mostly in the field of Cognitive psychology, limiting it down to concerns involving Situated and, occasionally, Cognition.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Evidence for a Large-Scale Brain System Supporting Allostasis and Interoception in Humans. (204 citations)
  • Evidence for a Large-Scale Brain System Supporting Allostasis and Interoception in Humans. (204 citations)
  • Depression and obesity: evidence of shared biological mechanisms (134 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Psychiatry

His primary areas of investigation include Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Neuroscience, Leptin, Depression and Internal medicine. His Functional magnetic resonance imaging research integrates issues from Neuropsychology, Brodmann area 10, Audiology and Embodied cognition. W. Kyle Simmons is interested in Interoception, which is a field of Neuroscience.

His work deals with themes such as Anhedonia, Anxiety, Insulin, Insulin resistance and Appetite, which intersect with Leptin. He combines subjects such as Insulin metabolism and Mood with his study of Depression. W. Kyle Simmons interconnects Cardiology and Sensation in the investigation of issues within Internal medicine.
