Summary

The analysis of the input–output transformations performed by medium spiny neurons may help to unveil some aspects of information processing in cerebral cortex – basal ganglia circuits, and to understand the origin of the clinical manifestations of Parkinson's disease and other neurologic and neuropsychiatric disorders that result from alterations in dopamine-dependent information processing.
