This study shows that striatal activity encodes short-term action-outcome memories to guide future decisions in mice.

The paper shows that striatal activity is required for trial-to-trial learning improvements but not for memory recall.

The paper introduces ATLAS, an anterograde transsynaptic tracer based on an antibody-like protein, which enables non-toxic, synaptic, and activity-dependent circuit tracing in vivo and in dissociated cultures.
