This project investigates how norepinephrine and astrocytes influence reinforcement learning in the brain. By analyzing neuronal and astrocytic interactions, it aims to enhance understanding of learning mechanisms and develop new algorithms that incorporate astrocytic functions alongside traditional neural networks.
Updating behavior based on environmental feedback is essential for organisms to learn and develop optimal behavioral strategies.
Norepinephrine (NE) release from the locus coeruleus (LC) has been recently shown to critically mediate reinforcement learning (RL), such that a high level of NE released after a reward prediction error (RPE) improves subsequent behavior.
However, the mechanism by which transient LC-NE neuron activity (lasting 50-300 ms) influences behavior several seconds later remain…
