Abstract

The striatum is crucial for the correct learning and control of goal-directed behavior and habitual actions. Here in this issue of Neuron, Atallah etal. (2014) show that both reinforcement-based learning and control parameters are reflected in the neural activity of the ventromedial striatum.
