Research has identified distinct neuronal circuits within the basolateral amygdala (BLA) that
differentially mediate fear expression versus inhibition; however, molecular markers of these …

Balance arises from the interplay of external forces acting on the body and internally
generated movements. Many animal bodies are inherently unstable, necessitating corrective …

Many psychiatric disorders, including anxiety and autism spectrum disorders, have early
ages of onset and high incidence in juveniles. To better treat and prevent these disorders, it is …

10.7554/eLife.45839.001 Mature locomotion requires that animal nervous systems coordinate
distinct groups of muscles. The pressures that guide the development of coordination are …

Prenatal stress (PS) is a risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders with diverse ages of
onset and socioemotional symptoms. Some PS-linked disorders involve characteristic social …

The basolateral nucleus of the amygdala (BLA) assigns emotional valence to sensory stimuli,
and many amygdala-dependent behaviors undergo marked development during postnatal …

Depression during pregnancy has been linked to in utero stress and is associated with long-lasting
symptoms in offspring, including anxiety, helplessness, attentional deficits, and social …

The basolateral complex of the amygdala (BLA) is a critical component of the neural circuit
regulating fear learning. During fear learning and recall, the amygdala and other brain regions…

Animals influence how they disperse in the environment by sensing local cues and adapting
how they move. However, controlling dispersal can present a particular challenge early in …

WHILE serving in an army general hospital which functioned as a center for radiation therapy,
we were afforded an opportunity to study a large number of mediastinal tumors. A clinical …
