(a) Schematic of PRV-Cre infused into NAc, AAV-DIO-ChR2-eYFP infused into VTA, and ferrule implantation into VTA with experimental timeline below. (b) Representative image of real-time tracing of animals during the social interaction test with optical stimulation. Left panel shows an eYFP control animal and right panel shows an animal that received phasic stimulation with ChR2.
