NOTE:Predicting the future is a vital information guiding all animals incl
 uding humans in their decision of what to do next. How do brains accomplis
 h this task? How do they generate adaptive behavioral choice? All animals 
 possess a repertoire of inborn behaviors and continuously modify and adjus
 t them to meet the requirements of the environment by learning. To study t
 hese processes\, I use operant (instrumental) learning paradigms and contr
 ast them with classical (Pavlovian) conditioning situations in flies (Dros
 ophila) and snails (Aplysia). Such comparisons highlight the differences a
 nd similarities between behavioral and environmental learning\, the two fo
 rms of predictive learning. \nMore: http://brembs.net
