| 2024/04/25 | The experience of fear is an example of what was explored in a study conducted by the Postgraduate Program in Translational Neuroscience at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ). Derived from the doctoral thesis of neuroscientist Clarissa Penha Farias, the article, published in the journal Behavioral Brain Research, investigated the differences in the formation of extinction memory in Wistar rats accompanied by another animal (social support). | University Newspaper/ UFRGS |
| 2019/06/27 | Dysfunctional fear can cause anxiety, phobias, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Therefore, the extinction of fear memory is being researched. The study proved that test subjects who were exposed to the same situation that caused fear ended up erasing that memory when they were accompanied by another familiar test subject. This would be a way of deprogramming this fear and, therefore, eliminating a certain dysfunction. | G1 - RBSTV |
