Our findings suggest that alterations in the VTA-dopamine dynamics during exposure therapy may explain why individuals don’t respond well to therapy and remain fearful. Thank you to all authors: Eva Maria Fritz, Maya Xia Elise Van Leer Nevin Crow, Holmes & Singewald labs #eNeuro thank you!

Using a mouse model, we found that a brain region called the ventral tegmental area (VTA), which produces the brain chemical dopamine, shows abnormal activity when fear responses should normally decrease.

We explored why some people have difficulties in overcoming their traumatic fear despite the exposure-based cognitive behavioral therapy.
