We aim to validate that [...] motivational value associated with primary punishment in humans and to reveal a new successful target for DBS for patients with therapy-refractory depression [5-9]. Abnormal function of the lateral habenula has [...] Affective scores were significantly lower than sensory scores for all modalities, including the incision. In women, affective scores were not different for blade, laser and incision stimuli. In a second step, a

Work schedule: For this project, we will collect data from 60 female patients with BPD (age 18-45). For participating in study 2, we will recruit additionally a [...] expression of social signals; the adjustment of social behavior to social context and its consequences for the sense of belonging).

We aim to study the cross-talk of these [...] the molecular mechanism underlying this long-term up-regulation is unknown. Here, we propose a role for dopamine (DA) in the progressive recruitment of CRH signaling during the transition into alcohol dependence [...] rich neuronal populations - the intercalating cell masses (ICM) - with important gating functions for intra-amygdala signal flow.
