The rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is considered central in executive functioning and decision making, and from an anatomical perspective there is consensus that the mPFC is not a single homogenous structure. However, the nature of mPFC is more contentious in the functional domain, with disagreement as to whether mPFC is homogenous, or instead composed of multiple distinct subregions with distinct roles. To answer this question it is necessary to monitor activity across a wide swath of mPFC as rats actively engage prefrontal processing, and critically, to precisely identify the anatomi
