Inhibitory neurons in the amygdala can flexibly shape emotional learning and memory Neurons that specifically reduce and modulate electrical brain activity have a greater influence on emotional memories than previously thought. DZNE researchers came to this conclusion based on studies in mice. A team led by Bonn-based neuroscientist Sabine Krabbe reports these findings in the journal Nature Communications, along with experts from Switzerland and Israel. The study's results shed new light on how the brain generates and stores memory content and may help to elucidate the neural mechanisms of anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorders. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-11-inhibitory-neurons-amygdala-flexibly-emotional.html
