A Framework for Studying Emotions Across Phylogeny (2014, neutral): “Finally, the lateral amygdala is well-known for its role in fear conditioning (Maren and Quirk, 2004), although circuits in the lateral subdivision of CeA may contribute as well (Ehrlich et al., 2009).”
Neural Circuit Motifs in Valence Processing (2018, neutral): “The amygdala has long been identified as a critical hub important for emotional processing, and its importance in emotional processing for both positive and negative emotion was known (Brown and Sch€ afer, 1888; Fuster and Uyeda, 1971; Kl€ uver and Bucy, 1937; Weiskrantz, 1956) long before it was la”

Don't fear ‘fear conditioning’: Methodological considerations for the design and analysis of studies on human fear acquisition, extinction, and return of fear (2017, neutral): “The interested reader is referred to comprehensive reviews for detailed neurobiological underpinnings (for reviews see Maren, 2001; Maren and Quirk, 2004; and rodents: Fendt and Fanselow, 1999).”
Optimizing inhibitory learning during exposure therapy. (2008, background): “While research has yet to pinpoint its specific role in fear extinction and post-extinction phenomena (e.g., renewal), one possibility is that during extinction and re-test the PFC exerts inhibitory control over the amygdala (see Maren and Quirk, 2004; Sotres-Bayon et al., 2004).”
Cognitive neuroscience of emotional memory (2006, neutral): “To extinguish fear behaviours, the ventromedial PFC suppresses amygdala function by engaging a network of inhibitory interneuron”
