Decision Neuroscience: Choices of Description and of Experience

Ryan K RK Jessup and John P JP O'Doherty

Curr Biol 20(20):0 (2010) PMID 20971429

A new study suggests that individuals differentially recruit neural regions associated with decision making, depending on whether the information about the options are learned through experience or merely described.

    We present metrics designed to detect directional interactions and the formation of functional neuronal ensembles. We apply these metrics to both experimental and model-derived data in an attempt to link anatomical network changes with observed changes in neuronal dynamics during hippocampal memory...

    We recorded presumed MSNs and FSIs together with motor cortex and globus pallidus (GP) neurons, in rats performing a simple choice task. MSN activity was widely distributed across the task sequence, especially near reward receipt. By contrast, FSIs showed a coordinated pulse of increased activity as...
