DOI: 10.1007/s00221-020-05825-8
Abstract: We explored how reward and value of effort shapes performance in a sustained vigilance, reaction time (RT) task. It was posited that reward and value would hasten RTs and increase cognitive effort by boosting activation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2021.07.058
Abstract: Reward value is known to modulate learning speed in spatial memory tasks, but little is known about its influence on the dynamical changes in hippocampal spatial representations. Here, we monitored the trial-to-trial changes in hippocampal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abm5217
Abstract: Dopamine signaling from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) plays critical roles in reward-related behaviors, but less is known about the functions of neighboring VTA GABAergic neurons. We show here that a primary target of VTA… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0185093
Abstract: Social judgments of faces are thought to be underpinned by two perceptual components: valence and dominance. Recent work using a standard key-press task to assess reward value found that these valence and dominance components were… read more here.

DOI: 10.1523/eneuro.0381-19.2020
Abstract: Abstract Reward value guides goal-directed behavior and modulates early sensory processing. Rewarding stimuli are often multisensory, but it is not known how reward value is combined across sensory modalities. Here we show that the integration… read more here.
