This research aims to understand circuit dynamics in the hippocampocortical pathway during probabilistic reversal learning.
Trained rats on a two armed bandit task with reward reversals
Recorded local field potentials from dorsal hippocampus, lateral entorhinal cortex, and prefrontal cortex
Analyzed behavioral performance shifts from exploration to exploitation bias
Identified tonic cortical synchrony in theta and gamma bands as a performance marker
Showed prefrontal neurons ramped during goal-reaching, indicating a role in outcome assessment
Demonstrated crossregional phase locking of neuronal spiking to both theta and gamma rhythms

Experiment shows local field potentials in the prefrontal cortex influence dynamic decision making in rats during learning.

Aguilera‐Méndez et al. (2025) studied this question.
