A "fight-or-flight" neurotransmitter may cause traumatic memories to stick around
Blocking noradrenaline in rats made their memories more susceptible to change
I am a neuroscience enthusiast! Since my early days doing research, as an undergrad student, I have been interested in how stress can modulate (and change) the brain. Besides working at the lab, I have been involved with some science communication initiatives in my home country and also here, aiming to make science more disseminated and accessible to everyone.
