This study uses high-resolution fMRI to show that SN/VTA and LC activity differ in their response to rewarded versus visually salient stimuli, indicating distinct roles in reward and salience processing.

This study links encoding-related pupil responses to memory success by showing their correlation with hippocampal-midbrain interactions during memory formation.

The paper investigates how neural task representations adapt to task uncertainty using fMRI, finding dissociable modulations of conjunctive and compositional representations in the frontoparietal network.

The paper investigates how reward and difficulty cues are evaluated before and after task experience, finding that reward cues are positively evaluated even before task experience, influencing performance.
