Excited to share new work now published in @cp-iscience.bsky.social
Using single-neuron recordings in humans, we show that dopamine neurons encode reward expectations derived from past experience––giving us a new look into how reward learning unfolds in the human brain 🧵👇
Huge shoutout to my co-authors: Kannon Bhattacharyya, @krkulkarni.bsky.social, and @xiaosigu.bsky.social
Recent work in substance craving by @krkulkarni.bsky.social and @xiaosigu.bsky.social served as a huge inspiration for this project:

📢 New preprint out now!
In three samples (N=594), including a U.S.-representative cohort and a test-retest cohort, we formalize social motivation, learning, and homeostatic control within a single computational framework and identify a phenotype linked to chronic loneliness
