    Separable dorsal raphe dopamine projections mimic the facets of a loneliness-like state

    Christopher R Lee, Gillian A Matthews ... Kay M Tye
    Optogenetic manipulations and neural circuit interrogation reveal that dorsal raphe dopamine circuits can emulate different facets of a loneliness-like state, including prosociality, aversion, and vigilance.
