Neural signals of extinction in the inhibitory microcircuit of the ventral midbrain
Midbrain dopaminergic (DA) neurons are thought to guide learning via phasic elevations of firing in response to reward predicting stimuli. The circuit mechanism for these signals remains unclear. Using extracellular recording during associative learning we show that inhibitory neurons in the ventral...
