Thalamocortical and corticothalamic pathways differentially contribute to goal-directed behaviors in the rat

Highly distributed neural circuits are thought to support adaptive decision-making in volatile and complex environments. Notably, the functional interactions between prefrontal and reciprocally connected thalamic nuclei areas may be important when choices are guided by current goal value or action-o...
