Dopamine receptor activation regulates reward expectancy signals during cognitive control in primate prefrontal neurons

Abstract Dopamine neurons respond to reward-predicting cues but also modulate information processing in the prefrontal cortex essential for cognitive control. Whether dopamine controls reward expectation signals in prefrontal cortex that motivate cognitive control is unknown. We trained two male mac...
