Comprehensive Brain Maps Reveal Decision-Making Dynamics

TL;DR Summary
The study demonstrates that mice encode and utilize prior information across the entire brain during decision-making, with neural signals reflecting Bayesian priors that influence behavior, and these signals are distributed across cortical and subcortical regions, involving complex bidirectional information flow.
