Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Retina
  • Optics
  • Neuroscience

William H. Merigan mainly focuses on Macaque, Retinal, Retina, Lesion and Neuroscience. The Macaque study combines topics in areas such as Magnocellular cell, Spatial frequency and Contrast. William H. Merigan frequently studies issues relating to Lateral geniculate nucleus and Retinal.

His research integrates issues of Lipofuscin and Autofluorescence in his study of Retina. His Lesion research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Visual field, Visual acuity and Communication. His work in Visual system and Primate is related to Neuroscience.

His most cited work include:

  • HOW PARALLEL ARE THE PRIMATE VISUAL PATHWAYS (1346 citations)
  • In Vivo???Directed Evolution of a New Adeno-Associated Virus for Therapeutic Outer Retinal Gene Delivery from the Vitreous (389 citations)
  • Macaque vision after magnocellular lateral geniculate lesions. (250 citations)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Macaque, Retina, Retinal and Retinal ganglion. His Macaque research also works with subjects such as

  • Visual acuity, which have a strong connection to Contrast,
  • Visual field, which have a strong connection to Lesion and Gaze-contingency paradigm,
  • Stimulus and related Perception and Motion perception. His Retina research incorporates elements of Optical coherence tomography, Anatomy and Pathology.

His Retinal study combines topics in areas such as Adaptive optics, Autofluorescence and In vivo. When carried out as part of a general Retinal ganglion research project, his work on Giant retinal ganglion cells is frequently linked to work in Calcium imaging, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. William H. Merigan combines subjects such as Temporal cortex and Visual memory with his study of Visual perception.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (38.93%)
  • Macaque (33.59%)
  • Retina (25.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (38.93%)
  • Retinal (28.24%)
  • Macaque (33.59%)

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

William H. Merigan mainly investigates Neuroscience, Retinal, Macaque, Retinal degeneration and Retinal ganglion. William H. Merigan usually deals with Neuroscience and limits it to topics linked to Preclinical imaging and Retinal regeneration. His Retinal research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Retina, Functional imaging and Optical coherence tomography.

The concepts of his Retina study are interwoven with issues in Computational biology, Gene and Gene delivery. His study looks at the relationship between Macaque and topics such as Optics, which overlap with Feature. His study in Retinal ganglion is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Retinal pigment epithelium and Scanning laser ophthalmoscopy.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Vision science and adaptive optics, the state of the field. (74 citations)
  • Optogenetic restoration of retinal ganglion cell activity in the living primate. (14 citations)
  • Optogenetic restoration of retinal ganglion cell activity in the living primate. (14 citations)

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

  • Retina
  • Optics
  • Neuroscience

William H. Merigan mostly deals with Neuroscience, Retinal, Retinal ganglion, Retina and Ophthalmoscopy. William H. Merigan regularly links together related areas like Receptive field in his Retinal studies. He has researched Retinal ganglion in several fields, including Foveola, Fovea centralis, Foveal, Scanning laser ophthalmoscopy and Meridian.

His studies in Retina integrate themes in fields like Optical coherence tomography, Gene, Gene delivery, Genetic enhancement and Computational biology. His work in Optical coherence tomography covers topics such as Visual phototransduction which are related to areas like Adaptive optics. His studies deal with areas such as Preclinical imaging, Retinal ganglion cell, Stimulation and Optogenetics as well as Ophthalmoscopy.
