Electrophysiological Responses of Rostral Versus Caudal Ventral Tegmental Neurons

Accumulating evidence suggests that neurons of the ventral tegmental area (VTA) are highly correlated with event salience. Different regions of the VTA have different projection sites, yet little is known about the VTA response across its rostro-caudal axis. High-density recording methods were used...
