The mouse brain is the most extensively studied brain of all species. We performed an
exhaustive review of the literature to establish our current state of knowledge on cell …

The amygdala has long been associated with emotion and motivation, playing an essential
part in processing both fearful and rewarding environmental stimuli. How can a single …

Single-cell gene expression technologies are powerful tools to study cell types in the human
brain, but efforts have largely focused on cortical brain regions. We therefore created a …

Brain systems that promote the maintenance of homeostasis in face of stress have
significant adaptive value. A growing body of work across species demonstrates a critical …

What is the relationship between brain and behavior? The answer to this question
necessitates characterizing the map** between structure and function. The aim of this …

The central extended amygdala is an evolutionarily conserved set of interconnected brain
regions that play an important role in threat processing to promote survival. Two core …

The links between early life stress (ELS) and the emergence of psychopathology such as
increased anxiety and depression are now well established, although the specific …

In this programmatic paper we explain why a radical embodied cognitive neuroscience is
needed. We argue for such a claim based on problems that have arisen in cognitive …

This review brings together recent research from molecular, neural circuit, animal model,
and human studies to help understand the neurodevelopmental mechanisms underlying …

Human evolution has been marked by a striking increase in total brain volume relative to
body size. While a prominent and characteristic feature of this volumetric shift has been the …
