Ventral pallidum neurons dynamically signal relative threat
Moaddab et al. monitored single-unit firing of ventral pallidum (VP) neurons alongside behavior in rats when presented with auditory cues of various threat levels. They show that the VP is comprised of functional neuronal populations that dynamically respond to threat and thus constitute a neural ba...

| Summary: | Moaddab et al. monitored single-unit firing of ventral pallidum (VP) neurons alongside behavior in rats when presented with auditory cues of various threat levels. They show that the VP is comprised of functional neuronal populations that dynamically respond to threat and thus constitute a neural basis for threat behaviors. |
