The amygdala is not necessary for unconditioned stimulus inflation after Pavlovian fear conditioning in rats (2009)

Rabinak, Christine A., Orsini, Caitlin A., Zimmerman, Joshua M., Maren, Stephen

The basolateral complex (BLA) and central nucleus (CEA) of the amygdala play critical roles in associative learning, including Pavlovian conditioning. However, the precise role for these structures...

PKMζ Maintains Spatial, Instrumental, and Classically Conditioned Long-Term Memories (2008)

Peter Serrano, Eugenia L. Friedman, Jana Kenney, Stephen M. Taubenfeld, Joshua M. Zimmerman, John Hanna, ...

How long-term memories are stored is a fundamental question in neuroscience. The first molecular mechanism for long-term memory storage in the brain was recently identified as the persistent action...

The central nucleus of the amygdala is essential for acquiring and expressing conditional fear after overtraining (2007)

Zimmerman, Joshua M., Rabinak, Christine A., McLachlan, Ian G., Maren, Stephen

The basolateral complex of the amygdala (BLA) is critical for the acquisition and expression of Pavlovian fear conditioning in rats. Nonetheless, rats with neurotoxic BLA lesions can acquire...
