The Influence of the Basolateral Amygdala-medial Prefrontal Cortex Circuitry in Appetitive Cue Learning and Valuation
Thesis advisor: Gorica D. Petrovich === Environmental cues that are neutral in respect to hunger and feeding can come to predict food through Pavlovian appetitive conditioning. These learned cues can drive food seeking and eating independent of physiological hunger leading to overeating and obesity....
