Your heart is racing, your arms are tingling and your breathing is shallow. You’re having an anxiety attack. And you’re in a public place, to boot. A crowded restaurant, say, or at the office.

“This top-down breathing circuit has been a longstanding question in the neuroscience field. It’s exciting to find the neural mechanism to explain how the slowing down of breathing can control ...

Researchers at the Salk Institute have discovered a brain pathway that connects the frontal cortex to the brainstem, offering potential therapeutic targets for anxiety, panic, and PTSD. Study: A ...

Neuroscientists at the Salk Institute have now, for the first time, identified a specific brain circuit that regulates breathing voluntarily. Using mice, the researchers pinpointed a group of ...

Still, there has been little scientific understanding of how the brain consciously controls our breathing and whether this actually has a direct effect on our anxiety and emotional state.

A common analogy often used to explain the gravity of this situation equates breathing Delhi’s toxic air to smoking several cigarettes a day. But how accurate is this comparison, and what does it ...

It is time once again for a detailed look at the track layout for the 6.2-kilometre, 17-turn street circuit which will host the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix this weekend. The Las Vegas GP returns to ...

Salk Institute researchers discovered a brain circuit connecting the anterior cingulate cortex, pons and medulla, enabling voluntary breathing regulation. This circuit slows breathing and reduces ...
