Neural circuit models for evidence accumulation through choice-selective sequences

The paper develops two neural circuit models for evidence accumulation through sequential neuronal activity and tests them against neural recordings from four brain regions during a decision-making task.

Striatal pathways oppositely shift cortical activity along the decision axis

The paper investigates how direct and indirect basal ganglia pathways influence cortical activity during decision-making, finding that they oppositely modulate a subset of neurons encoding decision variables.

Opponent control of behavior by dorsomedial striatal pathways depends on task demands and internal state

The paper shows that dorsomedial striatal pathways oppositely control behavior depending on task demands and internal state.
