The drive to seek rewards – for example, food, water, or social interactions – shape most of our behaviors. How do animals learn which actions will lead to reward? How do rewards shape decisions?
Ilana B. Witten is an American neuroscientist and professor of psychology and neuroscience at Princeton University. Witten studies the mesolimbic pathway, with a focus on the striatal neural circuit mechanisms driving reward learning and decision making.
