This important and inspiring study by @Jack_W_Lindsey, Ashok Litwin-Kumar, @Datta_Lab et al. shows that the basal ganglia circuit with certain synaptic plasticity rules should receive efferent inputs conveying chosen actions and the importance of off-policy reinforcement learning

Absolutely thrilled to share my postdoc work in the Axel lab. We found odor-evoked representations of the intrinsic value of information in mouse orbitofrontal cortex and showed that mice desire knowledge as its own reward. Now on bioRxiv! a #tweeprint 🧵: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
New preprint! We show that top-down mPFC circuits pass through distinct architectures over development. mPFC circuit maturation drives developmental transitions in threat avoidance behavior. Heroic effort by @casklune @cgoodpaster3 @michaelgongwer et al! doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…
It's an unspoken fact that freely moving lab mice are not really freely moving. We came up with a method to change this. See the preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/3)

Happy to share our new study published today @NeuroCellPress. Here we recorded from 13 limbic regions simultaneously to reveal the network activity during male aggression and sexual behaviors. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
I am absolutely delighted to share my latest paper from @TheCalipariLab published @CellReports! cell.com/cell-reports/f… We showed that NAc core dopamine response to predicted but omitted aversive outcomes causally controls the trajectory of safety discrimination. A thread 👇

How do biological brains learn more efficiently than AI? In a new study, SWC and @GatsbyUCL researchers @PShamash, @sebalexlee, @SaxeLab, and @trabranco show that structured exploration is key. Read the story: sainsburywellcome.org/web/research-n…

Updated preprint! How does our prefrontal cortex help us avoid threats? Here @michaelgongwer and @casklune show that three classes of mPFC projection neurons have specialized roles in threat avoidance. 1/n🧵biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Spatial signals modulate neocortical processing. But where do these come from? Hippocampus? We checked the origin of place signals to the retrosplenial cortex. Surprisingly they originate from nearly all presynaptic circuits, particularly M2 and PPC. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Threats come with different modalities: visual (being followed on an empty street), auditory (ambulance sirens), olfactory (clogged bathrooms), gustatory (stale coffee), and somatosensory (red stovetops). Are these different types of threats processed by the same neural circuits?
