What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Neuroscience
- Cognition
- Internal medicine
His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Audiology, Thalamus, Cognition and Insomnia.
Neuroscience is represented through his Arousal, Sleep in non-human animals, Electroencephalography, Transcranial magnetic stimulation and Medial dorsal nucleus research.
His Audiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Developmental psychology and Neurocognitive.
His work in the fields of Thalamus, such as Thalamo cortical, intersects with other areas such as Ultra high resolution.
His work on Neuropsychology is typically connected to Preclinical imaging as part of general Cognition study, connecting several disciplines of science.
His study in Insomnia is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sleep restriction and Cognitive behavioral therapy.
His most cited work include:
- The intralaminar and midline nuclei of the thalamus. Anatomical and functional evidence for participation in processes of arousal and awareness (734 citations)
- Deficits of memory, executive functioning and attention following infarction in the thalamus; a study of 22 cases with localised lesions (306 citations)
- Sleep benefits subsequent hippocampal functioning (233 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Neuroscience, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Audiology, Resting state fMRI and Parkinson's disease are his primary areas of study.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Thalamus, Caudate nucleus, Sleep in non-human animals and Dopaminergic are the primary areas of interest in his Neuroscience study.
His research in Functional magnetic resonance imaging intersects with topics in Brain activity and meditation, Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, Endophenotype and Cognitive flexibility.
The concepts of his Audiology study are interwoven with issues in Insomnia, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Cognition, Developmental psychology and Polysomnography.
His work deals with themes such as Default mode network and Electroencephalography, which intersect with Resting state fMRI.
His studies examine the connections between Electroencephalography and genetics, as well as such issues in Sleep deprivation, with regards to Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance.
He most often published in these fields:
- Neuroscience (88.31%)
- Functional magnetic resonance imaging (38.96%)
- Audiology (31.17%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Neuroscience (88.31%)
- Resting state fMRI (27.27%)
- Cognition (16.23%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Resting state fMRI, Cognition, Audiology and Functional magnetic resonance imaging.
His Neuroscience study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Parkinson's disease.
His research in Resting state fMRI focuses on subjects like Default mode network, which are connected to Human brain, Prefrontal cortex, Tourette syndrome and Posterior parietal cortex.
While the research belongs to areas of Cognition, Ysbrand D. van der Werf spends his time largely on the problem of Clinical psychology, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Social isolation, Hearing loss, Aging brain and Obesity.
His Audiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Obsessive compulsive, Neural regulation, Brain activity and meditation, Neural correlates of consciousness and Precuneus.
He focuses mostly in the field of Functional magnetic resonance imaging, narrowing it down to topics relating to Insula and, in certain cases, Psychotic depression.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- ENIGMA and global neuroscience: A decade of large-scale studies of the brain in health and disease across more than 40 countries (97 citations)
- Cognitive control networks in OCD : A resting-state connectivity study in unmedicated patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder and their unaffected relatives (23 citations)
- A Resting State fMRI Analysis Pipeline for Pooling Inference Across Diverse Cohorts: An ENIGMA rs-fMRI Protocol (22 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Neuroscience
- Cognition
- Internal medicine
Ysbrand D. van der Werf mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Audiology, Cognition, Cognitive training and Brain activity and meditation.
In the field of Neuroscience, his study on Neuropsychology overlaps with subjects such as Betweenness centrality.
His Audiology study which covers Obsessive compulsive that intersects with Posterior parietal cortex, Neural correlates of consciousness, Developmental psychology, Supplementary motor area and Midbrain.
When carried out as part of a general Cognition research project, his work on Neurocognitive, Endophenotype and Fronto parietal is frequently linked to work in Group differences and In patient, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cognitive skill, White matter, Neuroimaging and Default mode network.
His Brain activity and meditation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cognitive reappraisal, Precuneus, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Craving.
