Last week, we pulled back the curtain on what it really means to live with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), beyond the ...

The striatum can be further subdivided into dorsal (caudate, putamen) and ventral (nucleus accumbens), and is implicated in regulating motor behaviours and responses to rewarding and aversive stimuli.

Recent advances in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) research have uncovered the existence of the central autonomic network (CAN), which comprises brain regions whose activity correlates ...

Capsida Biotherapeutics (“Capsida”) today announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the Investigational New Drug (IND) application fo ...

There’s a new kid on the block in the fast-growing radiopharmaceuticals category, as Nucleus RadioPharma chalks up an oversubscribed Series A that raised $56 million that will be used to create ...

The study revealed that these social brain regions are linked to the basolateral complex and the medial nucleus, two distinct parts of the amygdala. The former processes emotional information from our ...

Limbic system and fear The limbic system, especially the amygdala, plays a vital role in controlling various emotional behaviors, such as fear, rage, anxiety, etc.

The amygdala plays an important role in emotion processing. Several studies have proved that its activation can be regulated by real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (rtfMRI)-based ...

3 Discussion We introduced standardised dMRI tractography protocols for delineating cortico-subcortical connections between cortex and the amygdala, caudate, putamen and the hippocampus, across humans ...

Far from being lofty abstract ideals, our sense of right and wrong is woven into our biology. Modern neuroscience reveals that our brains literally reward us for treating others fairly and for placing ...
