SUMMARY: Neuronal Mechanisms of Novelty Seeking\, Ilya Monosov\, PhD (Washi
 ngton University School of Medicine)
DESCRIPTION: Ilya Monosov\, associate professor of neuroscience\, will disc
 uss data revealing the neuronal mechanisms that guide intrinsic motivations
  and broadly relate these efforts to a broader mission to discover the neur
 al basis of voluntary behavior.

 isplay intrinsic motivation to gain information and explore novelty. For ex
 ample\, they explore novel objects regardless of their task relevance\, and
  they are often motivated to gain advance information about the future\, ev
 en in situations in which this information may not be used to maximize thei
 r reward rates. I will discuss our data revealing the neuronal mechanisms t
 hat guide these intrinsic motivations and broadly relate these efforts to o
 ur broader mission to discover the neural basis of voluntary behavior.</p><
