Title

Dorsomedial striatal dopamine release signals the goal-directed action-outcome relationship

Biosketch

Genevra Hart is a lecturer in the Decision Neuroscience Laboratory at the University of New South Wales (Sydney, Australia). She obtained her PhD from the University of New South Wales in 2012. Her research investigates the neural bases of goal-directed actions, including cortico-striatal (Hart et al., Journal of Neuroscience, 2016, 2018; Hart et al., Current Biology 2018) and striato-nigral (Peak et al., eLIFE, 2020) projection pathways controlling the acquisition and performance of goal-directed actions. Her most recent work investigates the striatal signalling mechanisms underlying goal-directed actions, using fiber photometry.
