Named in the paper
“cNTS” and “mediodorsal thalamic nucleus (MD)”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by

a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-09

“MD terminals are reported for both groups, and the caption names the MDL, MDC and MDM subparts.”
