Are fear memories erasable? –reconsolidation of learned fear with fear relevant and fear-irrelevant stimuli [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2012 Recent advances in the field of fear learning have demonstrated that a single reminder exposure prior to extinction training can prevent the return of extinguished fear by disrupting the process of reconsolidation. These findings have however proven hard

Paraventricular thalamus hyperactivity mediates stress-induced sensitization of unlearned fear but not stress-enhanced fear learning (SEFL) [PDF]
eLifeExposure to stress can cause long-lasting enhancement of fear and other defensive responses that extend beyond the cues or contexts associated with the original traumatic event.

Observational Fear Learning in Rats: Role of Trait Anxiety and Ultrasonic Vocalization
Brain Sciences, 2021 Rats can acquire fear by observing conspecifics that express fear in the presence of conditioned fear stimuli. This process is called observational fear learning and is based on the social transmission of the demonstrator rat’s emotion and the induction ...

A prospective study of pre-trauma fear learning and extinction as risk factors for posttraumatic stress disorder [PDF]
Journal of Mood and Anxiety DisordersIdentifying risk for developing trauma-related disorders is a critical step in future prevention and intervention strategies. Impairments in inhibition of learned fear, such as safety signal learning and fear extinction, are suggested to be core ...

Dopamine prediction error signaling in a unique nigrostriatal circuit is critical for associative fear learning [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsLearning by experience that certain cues in the environment predict danger is crucial for survival. How dopamine (DA) circuits drive this form of associative learning is not fully understood.

Bimodal modulation of L1 interneuron activity in anterior cingulate cortex during fear conditioning
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2023 The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) plays a crucial role in encoding, consolidating and retrieving memories related to emotionally salient experiences, such as aversive and rewarding events. Various studies have highlighted its importance for fear memory

Social learning about dangerous people by wild jackdaws [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 For animals that live alongside humans, people can present both an opportunity and a threat. Previous studies have shown that several species can learn to discriminate between individual people and assess risk based on prior experience.
