Scientists have uncovered a dedicated brain circuit that distinguishes between direct fear and fear learned by observing ...

New research reveals that Type 2 diabetes may impair the brain’s reward and memory processing in ways that mirror early ...

Both stimuli are transmitted from the spinal cord to the thalamus and brainstem, eventually reaching the ACC. The ACC is a ...

Further analysis revealed that ACC neurons projecting to the periaqueductal gray (PAG), a brain region involved in fear and pain regulation, selectively conveyed emotional pain information.

Hyperactivation of certain brain regions in children and adolescents with ARFID suggest a new neurobiological circuit associated with the disorder.

The ACC is a key brain region involved in various functions, ranging from basic sensory processing to higher-order cognition.
