The human hypothalamus coordinates switching between different survival actions

J. Kim, S. M. Tashjian, et al.

Using deep-learning segmentation and an imaging sequence optimized for hypothalamic signal, this study shows the human hypothalamus—and a network including hippocampus, periaqueductal gray, and amygdala—encodes switches between hunting and escape and predicts optimal action coordination after switching. Across two experiments, computational models distinguished hunting from escaping via internal movement-generation parameters. This research was conducted by Jaejoong Kim, Sarah M. Tashjian, and Dean Mobbs.... show more
