- Endocrinology
His primary scientific interests are in Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Ethanol, Ventral tegmental area and Dopamine.
His Endocrinology study incorporates themes from Agonist, Anesthesia and Serotonin.
As part of one scientific family, William J. McBride deals mainly with the area of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to issues related to the Biochemistry, and often Neurochemical and Cerebrum.
William J. McBride has included themes like Alcohol preferring, Alcohol, Self-administration, Pharmacology and Toxicity in his Ethanol study.
His studies in Ventral tegmental area integrate themes in fields like Anatomy and Muscimol.
The concepts of his Nucleus accumbens study are interwoven with issues in DNA microarray, Monoamine neurotransmitter, Neurotransmitter and Sulpiride.
His most cited work include:
- Animal models of alcoholism: neurobiology of high alcohol-drinking behavior in rodents. (535 citations)
- Localization of brain reinforcement mechanisms: intracranial self-administration and intracranial place-conditioning studies. (513 citations)
- Serotonin, dopamine and GABA involvement in alcohol drinking of selectively bred rats. (278 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Ethanol, Nucleus accumbens and Dopamine.
His work deals with themes such as Anesthesia and Biochemistry, which intersect with Internal medicine.
His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Glutamate receptor, Receptor and Agonist.
His study in Ethanol is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Alcohol preferring, Alcohol, Self-administration, Pharmacology and Extinction.
William J. McBride focuses mostly in the field of Nucleus accumbens, narrowing it down to matters related to Hippocampus and, in some cases, Cerebral cortex.
His Dopamine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Catecholamine, Homovanillic acid and Neurochemical.
