Projection populations form a dorsoventral gradient of reward representations in the lateral septum
Several decades ago, the septal region was identified as the most dependable location of intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS) in the brain, but the neural substrates that mediate septal self-stimulation are still unknown. One part of the septal region, the lateral septum (LS), contributes to a number of motivated behaviors and may promote reward-seeking. However, the LS contains different…
