Abstract Environmental adversities constitute potent risk factors for psychiatric disorders. Evidence suggests the brain adapts to adversity, possibly in an adversity-type and region-specific manner. However, long-term effects of adversity on structure association individual neurobiological heterogeneity with behavior have yet be elucidated.

Maintenance of optimal serotonin (5-HT) levels during early postnatal development critical the maturation brain circuits. Understanding long-lasting effects life (ELS) on serotonin-modulated connectivity crucial to develop treatments arising from stress.MethodsUsing mouse model chronic developmental stress, we determined consequences ELS 5-HT circuits and behavior in female male mice. Using FosTRAP mice, cross-correlated regional c-fos density determine brain-wide functional raphe nucleus.
