abstract: Project A04 explores the impact of motivation and reward on neural signalling
  driving locomotor behaviour in mice. Circuit mechanisms, neuronal dynamics, and
  behavioural functions of the ventral tegmental area and lateral hypothalamus interactions
  will be investigated during free-choice and food-directed locomotion in health,
  ageing, and obesity using calcium imaging, optogenetics, and dual-site electrophysiological
  recordings. This project will help to understand hedonic aspects of motor functions,
  and how alterations of reward-related processing in obesity and ageing lead to reduced
  motor activity.
