DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2204066119
Abstract: Significance Pavlovian threat learning is a primary translational model for understanding the brain systems that underlie anxiety and trauma-related psychopathology. The amygdala has traditionally played a central role in this important form of learning across… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0269881117695861
Abstract: Learned safety, a learning process in which a cue becomes associated with the absence of threat, is disrupted in individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). A bi-directional relationship exists between smoking and PTSD and one… read more here.
