- Named in the paper
- “visual cortex (VIS)” and “amygdala (MeA-targeted injection site)”
- 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
“VIS is named as a cortical region with significantly more amygdala input in males.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
