Contribution of rat insular cortex to stimulus-guided action
Anticipating rewards is fundamental for decision-making. Animals often use cues to assess
reward availability and to make predictions about future outcomes. The gustatory region of …

Insular cortex subregions have distinct roles in cued heroin seeking after extinction learning and prolonged withdrawal in rats
Evidence indicates that the anterior (aIC), but not posterior (pIC), insular cortex promotes
cued reinstatement of cocaine seeking after extinction in rats. It is unknown whether these …
