Abstract
⺠We investigated neural responses to social stimuli after an inflammatory challenge. ⺠Inflammation led to greater amygdala to socially threatening vs. other images. ⺠Amygdala activity was positively correlated with feelings of social disconnection. ⺠Amygdala activity may be important for sickness-induced social withdrawal.
