Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Long-term potentiation, Dentate gyrus, Synaptic plasticity and Hippocampus. His Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Metaplasticity, Neurotransmission and Long-term depression. His Long-term potentiation research incorporates elements of NMDA receptor, Stimulus, Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Hippocampal formation and Stimulation.

His studies in Dentate gyrus integrate themes in fields like Messenger RNA and Immediate early gene. His work on Synaptic fatigue as part of general Synaptic plasticity research is frequently linked to APLP2 and APLP1, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Wickliffe C. Abraham has researched Hippocampus in several fields, including Neuroplasticity and Environmental enrichment.

His most cited work include:

  • Metaplasticity: the plasticity of synaptic plasticity (1220 citations)
  • Metaplasticity : tuning synapses and networks for plasticity (690 citations)
  • Roles of amyloid precursor protein and its fragments in regulating neural activity, plasticity and memory. (600 citations)

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

Wickliffe C. Abraham mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Long-term potentiation, Synaptic plasticity, Dentate gyrus and Hippocampus. His studies deal with areas such as Metaplasticity, Neurotransmission and Long-term depression as well as Neuroscience. His Long-term potentiation research includes themes of NMDA receptor, Endocrinology, Stimulation and Cell biology.

His Synaptic plasticity study frequently involves adjacent topics like Neuroplasticity. His Dentate gyrus research incorporates themes from Neurogenesis and Immediate early gene. His work in Hippocampus addresses subjects such as Environmental enrichment, which are connected to disciplines such as Spatial memory.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (71.67%)
  • Long-term potentiation (63.89%)
  • Synaptic plasticity (35.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Long-term potentiation (63.89%)
  • Neuroscience (71.67%)
  • Cell biology (18.33%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Long-term potentiation, Neuroscience, Cell biology, Synaptic plasticity and Hippocampus. His LTP induction study, which is part of a larger body of work in Long-term potentiation, is frequently linked to Proinflammatory cytokine, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study in the fields of Environmental enrichment and Dentate gyrus under the domain of Neuroscience overlaps with other disciplines such as Developmental plasticity.

His research integrates issues of Genetically modified mouse, Gene expression and Amyloid in his study of Cell biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Glutamate receptor, Neuroplasticity and Protein kinase A. The various areas that Wickliffe C. Abraham examines in his Hippocampus study include Glutamatergic, Arginine, Electrophysiology and Metabotropic glutamate receptor.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Therapeutic Potential of Secreted Amyloid Precursor Protein APPsα. (48 citations)
  • Reinforcement determines the timing dependence of corticostriatal synaptic plasticity in vivo. (44 citations)
  • Environmental enrichment effects on synaptic and cellular physiology of hippocampal neurons. (34 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Neuroscience

His primary areas of study are Long-term potentiation, Neuroscience, Synaptic plasticity, Dentate gyrus and Hippocampal formation. His Long-term potentiation research incorporates elements of Neuroprotection and Cell biology. His studies deal with areas such as Gene expression and Protein biosynthesis as well as Cell biology.

His research on Neuroscience focuses in particular on Homosynaptic plasticity. His work on Metaplasticity, Nonsynaptic plasticity and Spike-timing-dependent plasticity as part of general Synaptic plasticity study is frequently linked to Developmental plasticity, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study looks at the relationship between Dentate gyrus and topics such as Environmental enrichment, which overlap with LTP induction, Hippocampus, Neurotransmission, Neurogenesis and Place cell.
