Decisions and the Orbitofrontal Cortex

Why do we have favorites? Why do some people like chocolate ice cream, and others prefer vanilla? How is it that we decide subjective preference? For quite some time science has pointed to the orbitofrontal cortex. Now Camillo Padoa-Schioppa and colleagues at Washington University in St. Louis have established a causal relationship between OFC neurons and assigning value to objects. Tune in to learn about their research! References: Values encoded in orbitofrontal cortex are causally related to economic choices (2020) Sébastien Ballesta Weikang Shi Katherine E.
