Peer review (Hoor)

 * Very coherent, concise, and interesting!
 * I liked that you included what the original article had and how you supplemented the content with your research
 * Maybe provide some background on fear and how fear is typically responded to neurologically. Who started studying this? Were there any prior theories/hypotheses of fear responses related to this type of conditioning?
 * Link “amygdala” to Wikipedia article if there is one; briefly mention what the role does the amygdala play (e.g. emotional memories, habit formation, etc)
 * Why does the simulation of neurons in the amygdala drive fear-related behaviors?
 * Link “acetophenone”
 * Could add a section of neurological disorders where fear conditioning could be applied as its own section; add research that specifically had those disorders in mind
 * Images to compare control vs. fear conditioned animal, e.g. mice, from one of your references if they have used any imaging technology
 * Need brief introduction to what epigenetics is and how it (in general sense) relate to fear conditioning. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HA18C (talk • contribs) 16:54, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Peer Review (Josh)

 * I like the edit made to the amygdala, it is a vast improvement over what was there before, and has the advantage of being well cited
 * Hippocampus section needs more citations
 * Article could use a history section, detailing history of research into fear conditioning (like mentioning Pavlov and his contributions, others who advanced research, etc...)
 * Maybe move the molecular mechanisms section to under the amygdala section, since it only mentions neurotransmitters and receptors in the amygdala. If it's the case that it's not just amygdala, mention that. Either way, the organization of the neurobiology section could be improved, because right now it's two sections that are broken down by sections of the brain, and two sections that are biochemical sections.

Minor things:
 * Add section head for references section
 * Remove "[edit]" from headers of each section
