Emotional learning and memory are functionally and dysfunctionally regulated by the
neuromodulatory state of the brain. While the role of excitatory and inhibitory neural circuits
mediating emotional learning and its control have been the focus of much research, we are
only now beginning to understand the more diffuse role of neuromodulation in these
processes. Recent experimental studies of the acetylcholine, noradrenaline and dopamine
systems in fear learning and extinction of fear responding provide surprising answers to key …
