Single unit electrophysiology of optogenetically identified dopamine neurons in classical conditioning with probabilistic outcome of reward and punishment

We collected single-unit data (.mat file) from optogenetically identified dopamine neurons in the lateral VTA in mice. These dopamine neurons were recorded while animals performed 4 different variation of classical conditioning tasks with different ratio of probabilistic outcomes of water reward and aversive air puff. In one task, one cue was associated with both water and puff in a probabilistic manner.
