“NPY neurons in the NAc” and “ventral pallidum (VP)”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by

a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-10

“The anterograde mCherry tracing found a few labelled fibres around the LH, including in the VP, which fits a weak, present projection.”
