DOI: 10.1007/s00429-019-01837-5
Abstract: Stress-related psychiatric diseases are nearly twice as prevalent in women compared to men. We recently showed in male rats that the resident–intruder model of social stress differentially engages stress-related circuitry that regulates norepinephrine-containing neurons of… read more here.
