Understanding brain network connecting temperature sensation and emotion may help prevent heatstroke

Researchers have uncovered remarkable new insights into the neural pathways of the brain that allow people to act to regulate their body temperature in response to changes in the environment. Their study has revealed two previously unidentified distinct neuronal pathways: one for cold avoidance and one for heat avoidance. This discovery could provide a deeper understanding of the neural circuit mechanisms of the brain and may even lead to the development of new technologies for the prevention of heatstroke.
