PF (Parafascicular nucleus) projects to STRd (Striatum dorsal region)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Neurons in the parafascicular nucleus were reliably retrogradely labeled from striatal injections, especially more medial posterior sites.

Named in the paper: “parafascicular (PF)” and “dorsal striatum”
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
“PF was reliably labeled, and the Fig. 4 caption notes PF labeling at more medial posterior sites.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
