How does the human brain switch between survival tasks? (IMAGE)
Caption
The left figure illustrates the hypothalamus, a region responsible for encoding the switch between survival-related behaviors, along with its connected regions during the switching process. The right figure demonstrates that the optimal coordination of the switched behavior occurs only when there is pattern synchronization between the hypothalamus and the amygdala.
