Fear Conditioning by Proxy: The Role of High Affinity Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Fear Conditioning by Proxy: The Role of High Affinity Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Observational fear-learning studies in genetically modified animals enable the investigation of the mechanisms underlying the social transmission of fear-related information. Here, we used a three-day protocol to examine fear conditioning by proxy (FCbP) in wild-type mice (C57BL/6J) and mice lacking...
