Sadness Circuit Is <br />Discovered in the <br />Human Brain A study published in Cell <br />was conducted by a team <br />of scientists at UC San Francisco. They found that sadness is often associated <br />with increased communication between parts <br />of the brain involved in memory and emotion. Vikaas Sohal, associate professor of psychiatry at UCSF, <br />via NPR 21 people awaiting <br />brain surgery had tiny <br />wires inserted into their brains. The wires allowed study doctors <br />to monitor the patients brain <br />electrical activity for up to a week. Vikaas Sohal, associate professor of psychiatry at UCSF, <br />via NPR Scientists hope their new <br />understanding can lead to <br />treatments for depression <br />and other conditions.
