Elevated fear states facilitate ventral hippocampal engagement of basolateral amygdala neuronal activity

Fear memory formation and retention rely on the activation of distributed neural circuits. The basolateral amygdala (BLA) and ventral hippocampus (VH) in particular are two regions that support contextual fear memory processes and share reciprocal connections. The VH → BLA pathway is critical for in...
