The basal ganglia are notorious for their influence on action control and modulation of movements. Proper organization of neuronal activity within the two efferent pathways of the dorsal striatum, a major input of basal ganglia, is critical for appropriate behavioral control. The classical model of basal ganglia suggests that striatal indirect and direct pathways exert opposite action on the thalamo-cortical activation triggering motor control. Recent studies challenged this view by describing conjoint neuronal activities during action initiation or decision-making. Therefore, additional inves
