Background: Histoplasmosis is an important infection among transplant recipients. Few studies have described its epidemiology and outcomes in the modern era.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis using medical records from a single center in the United States.

In a pre-registered paradigm, participants learned stimulus-action combinations that provided reward through 80% probabilistic feedback.
