This study investigates how VTA dopamine neuron activity influences decision-making under risk of punishment in rats, finding that their activity scales with punishment probability and intensity and causally affects subsequent choices.

This study examines how chronic cannabis smoke exposure affects inflammatory markers in the blood and brain of young and aged mice, finding age-dependent changes in cytokine levels in the hippocampus.

This study shows that CBD reduces oxycodone self-administration in rats with neuropathic pain without diminishing oxycodone's pain-relieving effects.

This study uses optogenetic inhibition to examine how medial prefrontal cortex influences intertemporal choice in young and aged rats, finding age-specific effects on reward preference.

This study examines how punishment cues affect decision-making in rats, showing sex differences and the impact of psychostimulants.

This study investigates how oxytocin and its antagonist affect risky decision-making in male and female rats, finding sex-dependent effects on reward preference.

This study investigates the effects of muscarinic type 1 receptor activation on principal neurons in the rat basolateral amygdala using electrophysiological recordings.

This study shows cannabis smoke and oral Δ9THC improve working memory in aged rats but not young adults, without affecting hippocampus-dependent memory.

This study examines how reproductive experience affects cost-benefit decision making in male and female rats, finding sex-specific differences in risk-taking and intertemporal choice.

This study investigates how cilia loss in specific neuronal populations affects cocaine-induced locomotion and reward, finding cell- and drug-type-specific behavioral changes.

The paper investigates the neural circuits and cell-specific contributions to risk-taking behavior in male and female rats during decision-making tasks involving punishment.

This study shows that cilia loss in specific neurons affects locomotor responses to amphetamine differently in males and females.

This study shows aging changes how the basolateral amygdala (BLA) influences intertemporal decision making, with BLA inactivation affecting impulsivity differently in young and aged rats.

This study uses optogenetics to show that basolateral amygdala activity at different decision-making phases influences risky choice in rats.
