An afferent white matter pathway from the pulvinar to the amygdala facilitates fear recognition
2019
eLife
Critically, individuals with greater fibre density in this pathway also had stronger dynamic coupling and enhanced fearful face recognition. ...
Our findings provide converging evidence for the recruitment of an afferent subcortical pulvinar connection to the amygdala that facilitates fear recognition.Editorial note: This article has been through ...
For example, a structure located deep within the brain called the amygdala is connected to other parts of the brain that regulate hormones, senses and muscles. ...
