Brain regions that relieve effects of chronic stress in mice differ based on sex
New studies by researchers at Penn State show that subtle activation of a small subset of neurons in one region of the brain can make male mice resilient to, and even reverse, the detrimental effects of chronic stress and that the changes involved are highly sex-specific.
