Independent Contributions of Discrete Dopaminergic Circuits to Cellular Plasticity, Memory Strength, and Valence in Drosophila

Summary: Dopaminergic neurons play a key role in encoding associative memories, but little is known about how these circuits modulate memory strength. Here we report that different sets of dopaminergic neurons projecting to the Drosophila mushroom body (MB) differentially regulate valence and memory...
