Caption
A light-sheet microscope 3D image displays the convergence of dopaminergic transmitter inputs from the ventral tegmental area (green), a midbrain structure associated with reward and motivation, and glutamatergic inputs from the ventral hippocampus (red), an area deep within the brain that helps with navigation, onto the nucleus accumbens.
