Distinct spatiotemporal brainstem pathways of outcome valence during reward- and punishment-based learning

Summary: Learning to seek rewards and avoid punishments, based on positive and negative choice outcomes, is essential for human survival. Yet, the neural underpinnings of outcome valence in the human brainstem and the extent to which they differ in reward and punishment learning contexts remain larg...
