New preprint! 🧠🐭🔬
Reward-predictive cues can bias action selection, but can they also influence the *rules* we use to complete a sequence of actions? sPRInT through this thread to find out!

Reward Memories Bias Instrumental Rule Selection via the Orbitofrontal-to-Secondary Motor cortex Pathway
Reward-predictive cues can influence decision-making and promote the pursuit of specific outcomes. This influence is classically studied using specific Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (sPIT), in wh...

New preprint 🚨🧠🔬
@sophiepeterson.bsky.social + @margole.bsky.social dissect the roles of 2 major OFC subcortical pathways in context-dependent reward prediction.
TLDR:
OFC→CDS: critical for hierarchical gating of predictions.
OFC→MDT: more modest role, possibly limiting non-hierarchical predictions
