This project aims to investigate how the brain integrates threat during hunger. Using cutting-edge technology to manipulate and record neural activity this project will elucidate the brain circuits that integrate threat and appetite to minimize stress exposure during foraging. This will expand our knowledge on how the brain perceives and responds to hunger and may provide relevant information for a large number of basic biological processes controlling the brain. Expected outcomes of this project will contribute to a better understanding of the circuitry controlling more complex decisions from food selection through to social interactions. This should provide significant benefits for Australia’s competitiveness within neuroscience research.

该项目旨在研究大脑如何在饥饿期间整合威胁。利用尖端技术来操纵和记录神经活动，该项目将阐明整合威胁和食欲的大脑回路，以最大限度地减少觅食过程中的压力暴露。这将扩大我们对大脑如何感知和响应饥饿的知识，并可能为控制大脑的大量基本生物过程提供相关信息。该项目的预期成果将有助于更好地了解控制从食物选择到社会互动的更复杂决策的电路。这将为澳大利亚在神经科学研究领域的竞争力提供重大利益。
