What can we learn about humans by doing research in mice? 🤔
MITSurprisingly, neuroscientists are still trying to figure out how our brains make them. Now, they're a little bit closer to understanding that complex process.as they were presented with a choice that sometimes resulted in a small reward and sometimes led to a small punishment.
“A lot of this brain activity deals with surprising outcomes, because if an outcome is expected, there’s really nothing to be learned," says neuroscientist The point of the experiment wasn't really to teach the mice anything. The researchers wanted the mice to develop expectations so they could watch how the rodent brains reacted to the punishments and rewards. The researchers thought the neurons they were looking at would show certain patterns when the mice got water and other patterns when they had to endure a puff of air. But that's not what they saw.
