Depression uncouples brain's hate circuit

The new University of Warwick led research found that in significant numbers of the depressed test subjects they examined by fMRI that this hate circuit had become decoupled. Those depressed people also seemed to have experienced other significant disruptions to brain circuits associated with; risk and action, reward and emotion, and attention and memory processing. The researchers found that in the depressed subjects: A new study using MRI scans, led by Professor Jianfeng Feng, from the University of Warwick's Department of Computer Science, has found that depression frequently seems to uncouple the brain's "Hate Circuit". The study entitled " The Hate circuits were 92% per cent likely to be decoupled The Risk/Action circuit was 92% likely to be decoupled The Emotion/Reward circuit was 82% likely to be decoupled Professor Jianfeng Feng, from the University of Warwick's Department of Computer studies said that: "The results are clear but at f...
