This study investigates how time estimation, movement, and reward anticipation contribute to prefrontal and striatal ramping activity in mice during interval timing tasks.

This study shows D2-MSNs and D1-MSNs have opposing dynamics but complementary roles in interval timing, revealing how striatal pathways contribute to cognitive timing.

The paper shows that with experience, striatal neurons improve temporal decoding and exhibit experience-related changes in activity patterns during interval timing tasks in mice.
