Generality and opponency of rostromedial tegmental (RMTg) roles in valence processing

Generality and opponency of rostromedial tegmental (RMTg) roles in valence processing

The rostromedial tegmental nucleus (RMTg), a GABAergic afferent to midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons, has been hypothesized to be broadly activated by aversive stimuli. However, this encoding pattern has only been demonstrated for a limited number of stimuli, and the RMTg influence on ventral tegmental...
