New preprint from the lab! 🧠
Led by Juliana Trach, w/ Sophia Ou

Builds on, and extends, recent work in both rodents and NHPs

🧵 New paper! We studied depression symptoms and goal-directed decisions under uncertainty

@shiyiliang.bsky.social, with @evanrussek.bsky.social & @robbrutledge.bsky.social

Surprisingly, we found that apathy–anhedonia was linked to enhanced goal-directed behavior. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
