- •
Dorsal Raphe 5-HT Neurons may encode how beneficial the current environmental context is.
- •
Reward probability, reward value, and cost may determine the activity of DRN 5-HT neurons.
- •
The beneficialness signal may reconfigure neural circuits to modulate numerous behaviors.
- •
We propose several experiments to further study the behavioral functions of these neurons.
