Resumo(s)
"The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is thought to be involved in the
representation of anticipated behavioral outcomes that drive goaldirected
behavior. Among the properties of goals or outcomes that may
be represented in the OFC is their spatial location, a fundamental feature
of goals for animals that rely heavily on locomotion for foraging. Previous
studies have described neural correlates of choice and goal location in
rats performing spatial two-alternative choice tasks. However, relatively
little is known about the spatial properties of these OFC neural
representations.(...)"
