Abstract
This chapter focusses on the electrical patterns of identified dopamine midbrain neurons in the intact brain with a focus on recordings in nonhuman primates and rodents. It features intracellular in vivo recordings as well as extracellular single unit recordings. Different patterns of activity are characterized including tonic in vivo activity as well as transient patterns, in particular bursts and pauses.
