Illuminating the Neuronal Architecture Underlying Context in Fear Memory

Publication date: 3 November 2016

Author(s): Mark S. Cembrowski, Nelson Spruston
Context plays a foundational role in determining how to interpret potentially fear-producing stimuli, yet the precise neurobiological substrates of context are poorly understood. In this issue of Cell, Xu et al. elegantly show that parallel neuronal circuits are necessary for two distinct roles of context in fear conditioning.
