The midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) has been recognized for decades as having a
central role in the control of a wide variety of defensive responses. Initial discoveries relied …

The human brain is the most complex structure generated during development. Unveiling
the ontogenesis and the intrinsic organization of specific neural networks may represent a …

The thalamus enables key sensory, motor, emotive, and cognitive processes via
connections to the cortex. These projection patterns are traditionally considered to originate …

Investigative exploration and foraging leading to food consumption have vital importance,
but are not well-understood. Since GABAergic inputs to the lateral and ventrolateral …

In the mammalian visual system, the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus (vLGN) of the
thalamus receives salient visual input from the retina and sends prominent GABAergic …

The neural basis of fear of heights remains largely unknown. In this study, we investigated
the fear response to heights in male mice and observed characteristic aversive behaviors …

The zona incerta is a subthalamic nucleus made up mostly of GABAergic neurons. It has
wide-ranging inputs and outputs and is believed to have many integrative functions that link …

The ventral lateral geniculate nucleus (vLGN) is a retinorecipient region of thalamus that
contributes to a number of complex visual behaviors. Retinal axons that target vLGN …
