Als exzellent gelten setzt voraus, sichtbar zu sein. Wissenschaftlerinnen werden jedoch für Sichtbarkeit abgestraft. Egal was sie tun: Sie können es nur falsch machen!

VTA dopamine activity control movement-related performance, not reward prediction errors. Here, authors show that behavioral changes during Pavlovian learning explain DA activity regardless of reward ...

Functional connectivity (FC) has attracted significant interest in the identification of specific circuits underlying brain (dys-)function. Classical analyses to estimate FC ( i.e ., filtering electro...
