A specific component of the evoked potential mirrors phasic dopamine neuron activity during conditioning
Midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons receive diverse inputs from regions distributed throughout the neuraxis from frontal neocortex to the mesencephalon. Here we use local field potentials recorded from the midbrain to show that the evoked potential (mEP) faithfully reflects the temporal and spatial structure of the phasic response of midbrain neuron populations during classical conditioning.

The inhibitory microcircuit of the substantia nigra provides feedback gain control
Dysfunction of the basal ganglia produces severe deficits in the timing, initiation, and vigor of movement. These diverse impairments suggest a control system gone awry. In engineered systems feedback is critical for stable control. Here we show that one feedback pathway, axon collaterals of substantia nigra projection neurons, control the gain of the basal ganglia output. The importance of feedback for engineered control systems implies that the intranigral microcircuit could be essential to normal basal ganglia function.
