This project investigates how the brain computes reward expectations, which are essential for learning and adaptive behavior. By studying specific circuits in the basal ganglia, it aims to understand the neural basis of reward prediction and its implications for psychiatric disorders.
Predicting future outcomes is fundamental for adaptive behaviour.
Reward-predicting stimuli evoke a state of expectation, which informs motivation, guides attention, and drives preparatory motor behaviour.
Reward expectations are crucial for learning since they serve as a comparison to actual outcomes.
This comparison allows animals to determine if there is a prediction error (i.e. if an outcome was better or worse than expected).
Even though reward expectation signals are observed in many areas…
