The paper characterizes decision-making neural dynamics during spatial navigation in mice by analyzing cortex-wide calcium dynamics across different paradigms.

This study shows that LHA GABAergic and glutamatergic neurons independently scale activity during consumption and cooperatively regulate striatal dopamine release in mice.

This study identifies the role of endogenous dynorphin release in the dorsal striatum in regulating goal-directed behavior through retrograde GPCR inhibition.

The paper identifies Neurotensin-expressing neurons in the lateral septum as critical for opioid withdrawal by showing their activation and role in regulating withdrawal behaviors.

This study identifies stable, distributed coding of cue value in mouse prefrontal cortex during reward learning.

The paper identifies how specific neurons in the medial accumbens shell encode reward preference and show distinct roles in driving reward behavior.

The paper shows that vmOFC neurons signal relative reward salience, influencing learning rate through thalamic inputs in mice.

This paper introduces See-Shells, transparent polymer skulls that enable long-term optical access to the mouse cortex for simultaneous monitoring and perturbation of neural activity across multiple regions.
