In our study, the level of fear exhibited by experimental subjects was significantly reduced as a result of decreased signal transfer between cells in the amygdala, a key brain region in fear-related behaviors.”

As a result, McGill’s Office of Sponsored Research (OSR) has moved to two temporary locations. Normal research-related services will resume by Wednesday, February 20. 

Please note that all mail should continue to be addressed to OSR’s offices on the second floor of the James Building. It will be automatically redirected to the temporary locations.
