    Description

    Social behaviors are among the most notable motivated behaviors that are driven by rewarding goals. However, how dopamine (DA), a reward signal, releases during social behaviors has been unclear. This study used a genetically encoded DA sensor, GRABDA2m, to record DA activity in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) core during various social behaviors in male and female mice. They performed optical recording...

    Description

    Experiences need to be labeled during learning for further consolidation, but brain mechanisms that select experiences for lasting memory are unknown. This study determined that successive traversals in the maze were tracked by continuously drifting populations of neurons by combining large-scale neural recordings with a novel application of dimensionality reduction techniques. They recorded from many...
