The first manuscript based on my lab's data! We show that dopamine activity in the ventral striatum encodes moment-by-moment temporal-difference error during aversive situations, suggesting that dopamine can be a unified teaching signal across valences. doi.org/10.1101/2025...

A unified derivative-like dopaminergic computation across valences
Dopamine activity in the brain affects decision-making and adaptive behaviors. A wealth of studies indicate that dopamine activity encodes discrepancy between actual and predicted reward, leading to t...
