Resumo(s)
Learning novel actions and skills is a prevalent ability across multiple
species and a critical feature for survival and competence in a constantly
changing world. Novel actions are generated and learned through a
process of trial and error, where an animal explores the environment
around itself, generates multiple patterns of behavior and selects the
ones that increase the likelihood of positive outcomes. Proper adaptation
and execution of the selected behavior requires the coordination of
several biomechanical features by the animal. Cortico-basal ganglia
circuits and loops are critically involved in the acquisition, learning and
consolidation of motor skills.(...)
