Updating temporal expectancy of an aversive event engages striatal plasticity under amygdala control

Updating temporal expectancy of an aversive event engages striatal plasticity under amygdala control

Aversive conditioning requires the learning of time intervals between conditioned and unconditioned stimuli, as well as the associations of the stimuli themselves. Here the authors show that dorsal striatum and basal amygdala are part of a functional network that encodes interval timing.
