Motivation for a decision-making task is modulated by action value more strongly in female mice than in males, which is mediated by anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) neurons that project to the dorsomedial striatum (DMS)

New paper by the incredible Julia Cox & team! 'A neural substrate of sex-dependent motivation'

(spoiler: sex differences in motivation to perform a decision-making task are mediated by ACC->DMS neurons)

It was all a dream. I used to read Discover Magazine.

Indeed, my unofficial story is one of group homes and of growing up in the chaos and neglect inherent in having addicted parents and institutional living. It's a story of poverty, survival, perseverance, and hope.

Our lab was awarded an EE Just Postdoctoral Fellowship from UNCF, and we are looking for a postdoc candidate for this award. Very competitive salary and independent research budget for the fellow. If you, or someone you know is interested and eligible, get in touch ASAP.
