- Named in the paper
- “bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BST)” and “LH MCH neurons”
- 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
“BST clusters are reported and BST is listed first among the cerebral nuclei inputs to MCH cells.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
