  1. Researchers have identified the specific #neurogenic progenitor cells responsible for generating #dopaminergic neurons, alongside a distinct progenitor type that creates the necessary supportive environment for their survival.

  2. #DiscriminativeLearning enhances #sensory contrast for rapid, accurate decisions, but how? This study describes a sensory- #forebrain circuit centered on #dopaminergic short axon cells in the mouse #olfactory bulb, which refines sensory input during learning @PLOSBiology plos.io/4pvost3

  3. #Dopamine signaling has been linked to #analgesia & #placebo effects, but is there a causal relationship? @bingellab &co show that enhancing #dopaminergic tone does not alter generation of positive treatment expectations or placebo analgesia #PLOSBiology plos.io/3ZC1Exf

  4. Tradeoffs between rewards & costs involve the #dopaminergic system. @GJocham &co show that #dopamine & #acetylcholine have opposing effects on the modulation of specific components of #CostBenefit #DecisionMaking in humans #PLOSBiology plos.io/463uIik
