Chemogenetic inhibition of the ventrolateral orbitofrontal cortex disrupts novelty-guided updating of spatial memories and alters hippocampal engram reactivation

Abstract Rationale Adaptive behavior requires revising memories when outcomes deviate from expectations. The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is implicated in representing outcome expectancies, but its role in memory-updating, beyond value-based learning, remains unclear. Objectives We...
