Striatal Dopamine Can Enhance Learning, Both Fast and Slow, and Also Make it Cheaper

A. Westbrook, R. van den Bosch, L. Hofmans, D. Papadopetraki, J. I. Maatta, A. G. E. Collins, M. J. Frank, R. Cools

This study shows dopamine enhances both reinforcement learning and working memory, reduces effort costs, and highlights the need to account for its effects on working memory when studying reinforcement learning.

Comparative genomics of beetle-vectored fungal pathogens reveals a reduction in genome size and independent evolution of pathogenicity of two tree pathogens

T. A. Schuelke, A. Westbrook, K. Woeste, D. Plachetzki, K. Broders, M. MacManes

The paper compares the genomes of fungal pathogens and non-pathogens to identify genes under positive selection associated with pathogenicity in Geosmithia morbida.
