This valuable contribution combines high-resolution histology with magnetic resonance imaging in a novel way to study the organisation of the human amygdala. The main findings convincingly show the ...

These neurons, which are located in the central nucleus of the amygdala, express a receptor called NPBWR1. Additionally, this study reveals that genetic polymorphisms in the human NPBWR1 gene ...

Embark on an exciting journey of discovery with our in-school enrichment program, 4-H Embryology in the Classroom! Designed for pre-K through high school teachers, this immersive experience brings the ...

Embryology is the discipline concerned with the study of embryogenesis, the development of the embryo from a fertilised egg cell. Findings in embryology have helped in the understanding of ...

In the present intervention study we examined the effects of a one-hour walk in an urban vs. natural environment on activity in the amygdala, a brain region previously associated with stress ...

Specifically, we combine a retrograde transsynaptic rabies tracing system with cFos colocalization immediately after an acute stressor to elucidate local structural and stress-activated connectivity ...

A number of neural structures play a role in anxiety, but the one that gives it its strong emotional color is the amygdala. The rational, thinking prefrontal cortex is responsible for interpreting ...
