 ://bit.ly/DoNSeminarSeries</a></p><p>Classical fear conditioning is one of 
 the most powerful models for studying the neuronal substrates of associativ
 e learning and for investigating how plasticity in defined neuronal circuit
 s causes behavioral changes. In my talk\, I will focus on the organization 
 and function of the neuronal circuitry of fear and discuss how functionally
 \, anatomically and genetically defined types of amygdala neurons contribut
 e to the acquisition and expression of conditioned fear behavior. Moreover\
 , I will present recent experiments longitudinally imaging neural calcium d
 ynamics across different environments in freely moving mice engaged in expl
 oratory or instrumental behaviors demonstrating that changes in the activit
 y of major\, non-overlapping populations of amygdala principal neurons pred
 ict switches between behavioral states. The amygdala broadcasts state infor
 mation via several output pathways to larger brain networks\, and sensory r
 esponses in BA occur independently of behavioral state encoding. Thus\, the
  brain processes external stimuli and internal states orthogonally\, which 
 may facilitate rapid and flexible selection of appropriate\, state-dependen
 t behavioral responses.</p><p><a href="https://neuroscience.wustl.edu/news-
