A team of UCF College of Medicine researchers has created a digital topographical map of the cardiac sympathetic neural network, the region that controls the body's heart rate and its "fight-or-flight ...

Your sympathetic nervous system is one of the branches of your autonomic nervous system. It controls functions under unconscious control related to “fight or flight.” Your nervous system plays a ...
