The paper shows that dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens during instrumental learning reflects Bayesian inference of probabilistic beliefs about hidden environmental states.

This study shows that prepubertal ovariectomy in female mice alters decision-making strategies and DMS neuron excitability, affecting explore/exploit balance during reversal learning.

The paper examines how sex and pubertal status affect dendritic spine density in frontal corticostriatal projection neurons in mice, finding sex differences and pubertal regulation in spine pruning.
