The striatum is a subcortical structure in the forebrain that forms the major input to the basal ganglia. The striatum can be further subdivided into dorsal (caudate, putamen) and ventral (nucleus ...

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 ...

In non-human primate (NHP) studies to date, a single IV infusion of CAP-003 resulted in dose-dependent increases in GCase activity in critical brain regions including the substantia nigra, frontal ...

Currently, treatments targeting the amygdala require invasive surgical procedures since it’s located deep within the brain, ...

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 b ...

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.
