May 13, 2024 · Dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area support intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS), yet the cognitive representations underlying this phenomenon remain unclear. Here, 20-Hz stimulation of ...
5 days ago · Midbrain dopamine neurons located in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) emerge as leading candidates for providing the teaching signal to the hippocampus.
May 11, 2024 · Abstract. The ventral subiculum (vSUB), the major output structure of the hippocampal formation, regulates motivation, stress integration, and anxiety-like behaviors that rely on heightened...
4 days ago · Their afferents from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the primary motor cortex (M1) amplify specific neural circuits, enhancing motor output precision. The VTA also harmonizes different brain regions involved in reinforcement learning and decision-making, thus fine-tuning sensorimotor performance [22] .
May 1, 2024 · Dr. Edlow explains, "Our connectivity results suggest that stimulation of the ventral tegmental area's dopaminergic pathways has the potential to help patients recover from coma because...
May 17, 2024 · To uncover the circuit architecture of beta oscillations, we leverage normative brain data, analysing over 30 hours of invasive brain signals from 1772 cortical areas in epilepsy patients, to demonstrate that beta is the most distributed cortical brain rhythm.
5 days ago · From the standpoint of future treatments in patients with severe brain injuries, the researchers showed that a dopamine-producing region in the brainstem, the ventral tegmental area, is a connectivity hub that links the subcortical default ascending arousal network to the cortical default mode network.
