People make risk-versus-reward decisions every day, whether making purchases or deciding how to travel to work. Despite the important role of risk in decision-making, neuroscience studies have focused on perceived reward. Furthermore, researchers have identified the regions of the cerebral cortex involved in gauging risk versus reward, but data for subcortical regions are ambiguous. However, Kerstin Preuschoff and colleagues at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena wagered that they could determine the subcortical structures involved in gambling using functional MRI, which...Read full article
