Neurobiological mechanisms supporting experience-dependent resistance to social stress

Highlights • Stress resilience is an active process that involves distinct neural circuits. • Experience-dependent neural plasticity in key brain regions supports resilience. • Dominant hamsters show resistance to the effects of social defeat. • Neural plasticity in vmPFC circuits supports stress re...
