EMOTIONAL PROCESSING

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 目的：了解灵长类动物情绪表达的神经系统。 基线脑代谢，行为和生理指标的特点，准备消融膝下区25，一个区域，涉及抑郁症。 这些研究的结果将与人类高度相关，解决杏仁核-眶额相互作用在调节正常情绪和精神病理学中的作用。 这项工作使用WNPRC动物服务，病理学，运营服务，图书馆和信息服务。 一份出版物正在印刷中.

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Objective: To understand the neural system underlying the expression of emotion in primates. Baseline brain metabolism, behavior, and physiological measures were characterized in preparation for ablation of subgenual Area 25, an area that has been implicated in depression. The findings from these studies will be highly relevant to humans, addressing the role of amygdala-orbitofrontal interactions in mediating normal emotion and psychopathology. This work used WNPRC Animal Services, Pathology, Operational services, and Library and Information services. A publication is in press.
