The paper identifies the role of infralimbic cortex GABAergic interneurons in fear extinction encoding through circuit mechanisms involving parvalbumin and somatostatin interneurons.

This study shows that the dorsal peduncular cortex encodes fear memory rather than suppressing it, challenging previous assumptions about its role in fear regulation.

This study identifies a heterogeneous neural ensemble in the medial prefrontal cortex involved in fear conditioning, highlighting the role of somatostatin interneurons in memory encoding and behavior.

This study shows that fear memory encoding involves activation of prefrontal somatostatin interneurons, challenging the view that they only modulate network activity.
