“…The BNST, which provided the strongest input from the pallidum, is, similarly, linked to anxiety‐like behaviors in humans (Avery et al., 2016) and animals (Ch'ng et al., 2018; Harris et al., 2018), which can be sex specific (Luo et al., 2021). Thus, we identified significant input likely linked to the regulation and response to stress (Chou et al., 2018; Dinan & Scott, 2005; Ferris, 2000; Inutsuka et al., 2016; Lu et al., 2021; Masri et al., 2009) and to changing internal and environmental conditions.…”
