Journal ArticleDOI

Diverging neural pathways assemble a behavioural state from separable features in anxiety

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that distinct BNST subregions exert opposite effects in modulating anxiety, separable anxiolytic roles for different anterodorsal BN ST projections are established, and circuit mechanisms underlying selection of features for the assembly of the anxious state are illustrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integration of optogenetics with complementary methodologies in systems neuroscience

TL;DR: An integrated approach now supports optogenetic identification of the native, necessary and sufficient causal underpinnings of physiology and behaviour on acute or chronic timescales and across cellular, circuit-level or brain-wide spatial scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Projections from neocortex mediate top-down control of memory retrieval

TL;DR: A sparsely implemented memory retrieval mechanism in the hippocampus that operates via direct top-down prefrontal input, with implications for the patterning and storage of salient memory representations is revealed.
