Brain vulnerabilities 'increase anxiety'RSS Feed
Vulnerabilities in the brain make some people more prone to anxiety, researchers have found.
Scientists at the University of California Berkeley and Cambridge University have discovered that two distinct pathways in the brain are involved in the development and overcoming of fear.
Some participants were found to be able to mobilise their ventral prefrontal cortex to lessen their response to fear, even as the dangerous event was still happening.
Author Sonia Bishop said: "If we can train those individuals who are not naturally good at this to be able to do this, we may be able to help chronically anxious individuals as well as those who live in situations where they are exposed to dangerous or stressful situations over a long time frame."
Meanwhile, a group of brain injury experts from different fields are to convene at Arrowhead's Annual Traumatic Brain Injury Conference.
Topics are to include chronic neurorehabilitation, preventing secondary damage in traumatic brain injury and the use of biomarkers in molecular diagnostics in diagnosis.
