In neuroscience, the reward system is a collection of brain structures which attempts to regulate and control behavior by inducing pleasurable effects. The neurological reward system is part of what makes reinforcement possible.
The major neurochemical pathway of the reward system in the brain involves the mesolimbic and mesocortical pathway. Of these pathways, the mesolimbic pathway plays the major role, and goes from the ventral tegmental area via the medial forebrain bundle to nucleus accumbens, which is the primary release site for the neurotransmitter dopamine. Dopamine acts on D1 or D2 receptors to either stimulate (D1) or inhibit (D2) the production of cAMP.

The reward centre (or center) is known to neuroscientists and was physically located in the brain in 2006. The reward centre is what keeps you happy by flooding your body with chemicals when you have a goal in life. It is thought by some that the reason why civilization has advanced is because of the existence of the reward centre. It is also when misused as the recognised cause of all addictions.
