Researchers at University of Tsukuba have identified a previously uncharacterized neural circuit that directly links emotional processing to arousal. In the pathway, GABAergic neurons in the bed ...

Permanent lesions were generated in the brains of model animals and changes in the neural pathways of the brains during the process of motor function recovery were investigated, through joint research ...
