The amygdalostrital transition zone (ASt) is situated at a crossroads between the amygdala and striatum, but its role in motivated behaviors is poorly understood. We have explored the functional role and genetic identity of this structure, and found the first evidence that the ASt encodes negative valence across behavioral timescales and is essential for orchestrating behavioral fear responses.”
