OverviewAI-generated summary

Scott M. Apana's research focuses on investigating the neurochemical effects of central nervous system stimulants, particularly methylphenidate, in nonhuman primate models. His work has explored the long-term impacts of methylphenidate treatment and the consequences of its discontinuation. Apana utilizes Positron-Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT) imaging techniques to assess these effects in the brain. He has collaborated with researchers from the National Center for Toxicological Research, including John Talpos, Merle G. Paule, and X. Zhang, on multiple publications. Apana's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 11, with 25 total publications and 486 total citations.
