Mount SInai researchers identified the cortical amygdala – an olfactory cortical structure – as a key brain region in ...

Scientists have pinpointed a brain circuit that, when activated, reduces anxiety without impairing memory. Using ...

A number of neural structures play a role in anxiety, but the one that gives it its strong emotional color is the amygdala. The rational, thinking prefrontal cortex is responsible for interpreting ...

Researchers using intracranial electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings from deep within the brain found that meditation led to ...

Researchers have discovered that positive emotions enhance perceptual memories during sleep, particularly in the non-REM stage.

Could the key to easing anxiety be hidden in our gut? Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and the National Neuroscience ...

Neural activity in the cortical amygdala determines whether mice engage in aggressive or pro-social behavior, according to a ...

Researchers using intracranial electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings from deep within the brain found that meditation led to changes in activity in the amygdala and hippocampus, key brain regions ...
