Topic: resting state brain networks

This study explores the impact of past experiences on resting state brain networks in animals, particularly focusing on the difference between naive mice and those subjected to contextual fear conditioning. We analyzed the resting activity of 41 brain regions, observing significant changes in brain activity 24 hours post-learning. Mice with associative learning experience showed a notable increase in c-Fos-positive cells in specific brain areas known for their role in fear memory formation, such as the prelimbic, retrosplenial, and temporal associative cortex, alongside various amygdala nuclei
