Approach-avoidance conflict arises when an animal encounters a stimulus that is associated
simultaneously with positive and negative valences [1]. The effective resolution of approach…

Emerging evidence implicates rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in tasks requiring
adaptation of behavior to changing information from external and internal sources. However, the …

Environmental stimuli that reliably accompany alcohol intake can become associated with
the pharmacological effects of alcohol through classical (Pavlovian) conditioning. Of growing …

The infralimbic medial prefrontal cortex (IL) is important for suppressing learned behavior
after extinction, but whether this function extends to responses acquired through appetitive …

Individual differences exist in the attribution of incentive salience to conditioned stimuli
associated with food. Here, we investigated whether individual differences also manifested with a …

Rationale Alcohol use is reliably preceded by discrete and contextual stimuli which, through
diverse learning processes, acquire the capacity to promote alcohol use and relapse to …

The capacity to suppress learned responses is essential for animals to adapt in dynamic
environments. Extinction is a process by which animals learn to suppress conditioned …

Extinction is a fundamental form of inhibitory learning that is important for adapting to
changing environmental contingencies. While numerous studies have investigated the neural …

Discrete alcohol cues and contexts are relapse triggers for people with alcohol use disorder
exerting particularly powerful control over behaviour when they co‐occur. Here, we …
