Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Dopamine

Her primary areas of investigation include Nucleus accumbens, Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Pharmacology. Her Nucleus accumbens study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Striatum, Ventral striatum, Enkephalin, Epigenetics of cocaine addiction and Regulation of gene expression. She has included themes like Corticogenesis and Receptor, Endocannabinoid system in her Neuroscience study.

Her studies in Endocrinology integrate themes in fields like Estrogen receptor beta and Estrogen receptor alpha. Her work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Antidepressant, Neurogenesis and Axon. The Pharmacology study combines topics in areas such as Ventral tegmental area, Cannabinoid, Dopamine, Opioid and Receptor expression.

Her most cited work include:

  • Essential Role of the Histone Methyltransferase G9a in Cocaine-induced Plasticity (510 citations)
  • Dnmt3a regulates emotional behavior and spine plasticity in the nucleus accumbens (455 citations)
  • Differential distribution and regulation of estrogen receptor-α and -β mRNA within the female rat brain (340 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Nucleus accumbens and Dopamine. As a part of the same scientific study, Yasmin L. Hurd usually deals with the Neuroscience, concentrating on Schizophrenia and frequently concerns with Psychosis. Her Internal medicine study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Estrogen receptor beta.

Her Endocrinology research focuses on Dynorphin and how it connects with Neuropeptide and Enkephalin. Nucleus accumbens is closely attributed to Pharmacology in her study. She has researched Addiction in several fields, including Drug, Cannabis and Opioid.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (33.47%)
  • Internal medicine (31.08%)
  • Endocrinology (27.89%)

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

  • Cannabis (18.33%)
  • Neuroscience (33.47%)
  • Psychiatry (15.14%)

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

Yasmin L. Hurd mainly investigates Cannabis, Neuroscience, Psychiatry, Epigenetics and Cannabinoid. She interconnects Young adult, Internal medicine, Urine toxicology and Cognition in the investigation of issues within Cannabis. The various areas that Yasmin L. Hurd examines in her Internal medicine study include Gastroenterology and Endocrinology.

Her Neuroscience research includes elements of Schizophrenia and Glutamatergic. Yasmin L. Hurd has included themes like Chromatin, Histone and DNA methylation, Epigenome in her Epigenetics study. Her Nucleus accumbens study is focused on Dopamine in general.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Brain Cell Type Specific Gene Expression and Co-expression Network Architectures. (126 citations)
  • Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor controls neural and behavioral plasticity in response to cocaine. (121 citations)
  • Cannabidiol for the Reduction of Cue-Induced Craving and Anxiety in Drug-Abstinent Individuals With Heroin Use Disorder: A Double-Blind Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial (84 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry

Her main research concerns Epigenetics, Neuroscience, Psychiatry, Cannabis and Cell type. Her research in Epigenetics intersects with topics in DNA methylation, Glutamatergic, Developmental psychology, Histone and Drug. Yasmin L. Hurd combines topics linked to Neurotransmission with her work on Neuroscience.

In general Psychiatry, her work in Cannabidiol and Addiction is often linked to Alcohol use disorder linking many areas of study. Her Cannabis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Prenatal Exposure Delayed Effects, Cannabinoid, Cognition and Epigenome. Her study in Cell type is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Schizophrenia, Regulation of gene expression, Gene expression, Gene and Computational biology.
