This study identifies a subset of dorsal raphe dopamine neurons (DRNVIP) critical for regulating threat assessment and defensive behaviors through feedback loops with the central extended amygdala.

This study investigates how neuronal activity in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) changes with attention load and nicotine, finding distinct mechanisms for attention and gamma oscillations.

The paper uses machine learning to identify neurodegeneration signatures in non-human primates caused by patient-derived α-synuclein structures, showing that small aggregates are as toxic as larger fibrils.

The paper validates DREADD-based inhibition of pallidal neurons in non-human primates using electrophysiological recordings and histochemical analysis.
