abstract = {Learning from positive and negative consequences of
self-generated behavior is fundamental for securing
organism's survival and well-being in uncertain, changing
environment. The link between the theory of reinforcement
learning that analyzes this kind of behavioral adaptation
and the function of the basal ganglia and other brain
networks involved in this form of learning belongs to one of
the most fruitful within computational neuroscience field.
Most fundamental issues, like neural representation of time,
states, actions, outcome expectations and reward $\&$
punishment itself however are still unresolved. Even the
most acclaimed classical finding relating firing of
dopaminergic neurons in response to unpredicted rewarding
stimuli to prediction error signal postulated in the
framework of temporal difference learning is under heavy
debate. In the group, we will discuss these basic questions,
identifying most crucial challenges, and attempt to sketch a
minimal functional neural circuitry that can perform
learning from reward and punishment under realistic natural
conditions.},
