It was great to be part of this comprehensive study examining striatum function within a learning paradigm, led by my exceptional mentor and friend, Kim. Another significant contribution to the field of striatum and sensory-motor association.

[Bernardo Sabatini @blsabatini]

This is new work from the lab. If you are interested in exactly when and how striatum contributes to learning, take a look. More details to follow. Let by the great Kim Reinhold, now on the job market.
