Separate groups of dopamine neurons innervate caudate head and tail encoding flexible and stable value memories
Dopamine neurons are thought to be critical for reward value-based learning by modifying synaptic transmissions in the striatum. Yet, different regions of the striatum seem to guide different kinds of learning. Do dopamine neurons contribute to the regional differences of the striatum in learning? A...
