Functional analysis of periaqueductal gray neurons projecting to the medulla in active and passive defensive behaviors

Fear responses and defensive behaviors are essential for survival. Fear responses are mediated by neural circuits that detect threatening stimuli and classify them as “unpleasant” or “aversive”. These circuits coordinate the selection of defensive behaviors, such as freezing or flight, depending on...
