The Role of Prefrontal Dopamine D1 Receptors in the Neural Mechanisms of Associative Learning

Dopamine is thought to play a major role in learning. However, while dopamine D1 receptors (D1Rs) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) have been shown to modulate working memory-related neural activity, their role in the cellular basis of learning is unknown. We recorded activity from multiple electrodes...
