Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Wolfgang Engel is best known for:

Gene
Enzyme
Spinal cord

His study on Pathology is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Degeneration (medical). His Atrophy research extends to the thematically linked field of Internal medicine. His Atrophy study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Internal medicine. In his study, he carries out multidisciplinary Disease and Surgery research. He undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Surgery and Disease through his works. In most of his Neuroscience studies, his work intersects topics such as Saccade. Wolfgang Engel connects Saccade with Eye movement in his study. Eye movement is frequently linked to Neuroscience in his study. His Denervation research extends to the thematically linked field of Anatomy.

His most cited work include:

Mammalian Motor Units: Physiological-Histochemical Correlation in Three Types in Cat Gastrocnemius (723 citations)
Slow Saccades in Spinocerebellar Degeneration (380 citations)
OCULAR MOTOR ABNORMALITIES IN HEREDITARY CEREBELLAR ATAXIA (309 citations)

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

Wolfgang Engel integrates Pathology with Immunology in his research. Borrowing concepts from Pathology, he weaves in ideas under Immunology. Wolfgang Engel performs multidisciplinary study on Internal medicine and Endocrinology in his works. Wolfgang Engel integrates Endocrinology with Internal medicine in his study. Wolfgang Engel integrates Biochemistry and Enzyme in his studies. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Skeletal muscle and Anatomy. Many of his studies on Skeletal muscle apply to Anatomy as well. His study deals with a combination of Disease and Pathogenesis. He combines Pathogenesis and Disease in his research.

Wolfgang Engel most often published in these fields:

Pathology (43.36%)
Internal medicine (39.82%)
Biochemistry (33.63%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2015)?

Inclusion body myositis (77.78%)
Pathology (66.67%)
Myositis (66.67%)

In recent works Wolfgang Engel was focusing on the following fields of study:

In his research, Social psychology is intimately related to Inclusion (mineral), which falls under the overarching field of Mineralogy. Social psychology and Inclusion (mineral) are commonly linked in his work. Among his research on Parkinson's disease, you can see a combination of other fields of science like Parkin and Protein aggregation. Wolfgang Engel undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Protein aggregation and Parkinson's disease in his work. He merges Inclusion body myositis with Myositis in his research. He undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Myositis and Inclusion body myositis through his works. His Pathology study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Pathological. Wolfgang Engel regularly ties together related areas like Pathology in his Pathological studies. His work in Anatomy is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Sarcopenia.

Between 2008 and 2015, his most popular works were:

Sporadic inclusion-body myositis: A degenerative muscle disease associated with aging, impaired muscle protein homeostasis and abnormal mitophagy (72 citations)
Sporadic inclusion-body myositis: Conformational multifactorial ageing-related degenerative muscle disease associated with proteasomal and lysosomal inhibition, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and accumulation of amyloid-β42 oligomers and phosphorylated tau (65 citations)
Pathogenic Considerations in Sporadic Inclusion-Body Myositis, a Degenerative Muscle Disease Associated With Aging and Abnormalities of Myoproteostasis (61 citations)
