COVID-19 is primarily known for its effects on the respiratory system, but its consequences go far beyond that. A recent study, published in the journal Brain, Behavior, & Immunity - Health and conducted at the D’Or Institute for Research and Education (IDOR), revealed molecular changes that may underlie the neurological symptoms exhibited by some patients affected by the disease, highlighting the importance of better understanding these still poorly known potential consequences of COVID-19.

Experiments with mice at the University of São Paulo used cutting-edge techniques to investigate the neural circuits behind aversive behavior and fear memory. The findings are reported in Current Biology.
