⚛️ In 1925, a 23-year-old on a state-funded university post retreated to a rocky island with hay fever and wrote a paper so strange he wasn't sure it was worth publishing. Schrodinger called it "nonsense." Einstein rejected it. It became the basis of modern technology.

🧵When and how does the striatum impact learning? Postdoc Kim Reinhold trained mice to reach for food pellets. They didn't know when the food was available so they had to reach randomly. One day, we provided a cue telling them the food was there.

I’m so excited to share the results of our long-running project. Wonder what happened when we (unexpectedly) removed Nkx2.1-lineage neurons from the lateral septum? Well, it started like that, then grew and grew… Here’s the pre-print - we look forward to any and all feedback!
