Value guided decision making in the prefrontal cortex
Dimitrios Mariatos Metaxas, Hugo Malagon-Vina, Cristian Estarellas, Thomas Klausberger · FENS Forum 2024
The prefrontal areas of the cortex have been implicated in decision making and flexible behaviour in different species spanning from rodents to non-human primates and humans. In particular, the orbitofrontal cortex has been associated with value representation and integration and the prelimbic cortex with strategy changes. However, the neuronal mechanism underlying such cognitive processes remains elusive. We aim to gain further mechanistic insights into how neuronal circuits of the prefrontal cortex compute decisions, both at a single neuron and population level, and how circuit operations ca
