New insights into the brain could pave the way for targeted treatments for anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. In a groundbreaking study, scientists at the University of California, Davis, have identified distinct groups of cells within the amygdala, a brain region central to emotional processing. By mapping the cellular and genetic structure of the amygdala in humans and primates, researchers hope to unlock new, cell-specific approaches to mental health treatment. The findings have been published in theAmerican Journal of Psychiatry. The amygdala is a small, almond-shaped…
