The ability to detect and predict threatening or stressful events is essential for survival. The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been the target of several studies in neuroscience since the participation of this structure in mnemonic processes and in the control of emotions is investigated. The hypothalamus has also been implicated in the regulation of such processes, and the hypothal…
