This study identifies the subthalamic nucleus's role in cautious actions by showing its projections to the midbrain are essential for cued avoidance behavior.

This paper shows that subthalamic nucleus (STN) glutamatergic neurons regulate action timing under threat by modulating response initiation speed and caution.

This study investigates the role of nucleus accumbens neurons in avoidance behaviors using optogenetics and calcium imaging in mice, finding that NAc disruption does not impair avoidance but abnormal output can disrupt it.

This study identifies two groups of zona incerta neurons with distinct movement sensitivity and shows they modulate behavior through a broad movement signal.
