Evidence for a cerebral cortical thickness network anti-correlated with amygdalar volume in healthy youths: Implications for the neural substrates of emotion regulation

► We study relation between cortical thickness and amygdala volume in healthy youths. ► Amygdala volume is inversely associated with thickness in emotion regulatory areas. ► Topography of relation dovetails with fMRI voluntary emotion regulation studies. ► Findings overlap with resting state functional connectivity studies of amygdalae.
