This study identifies a mechanism by which serotonin suppresses aggression by modulating nucleus accumbens circuits in mice.

This study identifies two neuronal subtypes in the adult mouse paralaminar amygdala and maps its connectivity, revealing its role in integrating olfactory information for emotional and autonomic responses.

The paper identifies a previously unknown region in the mouse amygdala containing immature excitatory neurons that mature during adolescence and migrate into the endopiriform cortex, similar to human paralaminar neurons.
