Studying neural pathways that go through multiple areas of the brain reveals an amygdala-to-brainstem pathway that plays a part in learning and expressing conditioned fear. #Neuroscience scim.ag/1fI

This is a great piece for all seeking mentors. Most importantly, the need to manage your mentoring relationships and take charge: One mentor isn’t enough. Here’s how I built a network of mentors science.org/content/articl…

Nice request! this is a model about threat-coping; it describes defense systems needed to resolve ambiguity for optimal action selection (and neurochem. balance). Failure of these defense systems is proposed to underlie persistent anxiety-symptomatology.nature.com/articles/s4158…

De-centralizing the Central Dogma: mRNA translation in space and time dlvr.it/Shx8xk

Researchers have uncovered the neural mechanisms contributing to excessive defensive behaviors linked with post-traumatic stress disorder in mice. The findings highlight the thalamocortical circuit as a potential therapeutic target for #PTSD patients. scim.ag/1qt

It's finally out there- our paper on cardio-behavioural defensive states! nature.com/articles/s4159…

Noteworthy: a new study comparing #ChatGPT vs doctors for responding to patient queries demonstrated clearcut superiority of #AI for improved quality and empathy of responses JAMA Internal Medicine jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…

How do heart-muscle cells beat for a lifetime? They switch from sugar to fat energy sources immediately after birth, and researchers found out how that switch happens. For nature: nature.com/articles/d4158…

The brain can replace a fear memory with a “safety” memory if it can learn to associate the stimuli related to the fear memory with a new, nonthreatening context, according to new experiments in mice. scim.ag/2PX

During motherhood, females spend all their time caring for the young. However, nearly 100% virgin female mice in the wild kill pups. In our new study published today nature, we revealed the neural circuit responsible for this drastic behavior switch. rdcu.be/ddZgF

Identification of subtypes of excitatory neurons that project from the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) to the lateral habenula (LHb); an Esr1+ subtype has roles in aversion and sexually dimorphic stress sensitivity nature.com/articles/s4159…

Are you a fidgeter? Me too!! We told you a while back that those fidgets impact neural activity in a big way. But we didn't know what their impact was on the decisions of trained experts. Find out in our new preprint. #fidget #neuroscience biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
