Long-term memory is achieved through a consolidation process where structural and
molecular changes integrate information into a stable memory. However, environmental …

Detecting novelty is critical to consolidate declarative memories, such as spatial contextual
recognition memory. It has been shown that stored memories, when retrieved, are …

Individual memories are often linked so that the recall of one triggers the recall of another.
For example, contextual memories acquired close in time can be linked, and this is known to …

This review starts with a brief description of key findings from Nader et al.(2000) which
stimulate vibrant research of memory reconsolidation in the new millennium. It then zooms in …

The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor is a critical molecule for synaptic plasticity and cognitive
function. Impaired synaptic plasticity is thought to contribute to the cognitive impairment …

Object recognition memory (ORM) allows identification of previously encountered items and
is therefore crucial for remembering episodic information. In rodents, reactivation during …

Catecholaminergic transmission plays an essential role in both physiological and
pathological cognitive functions. Plastic changes subserving learning and memory …

Throughout the educational system, students experiencing active learning pedagogy
perform better and fail less than those taught through direct instruction. Can this be ascribed …

Previous studies have shown that atypical dopamine-transporter-inhibitors such as modafinil
and its analogues modify behavioral and cognitive functions in rodents. Here, we tested …

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is a major contributor to relapse to cocaine in humans
and to reinstatement behavior in rodent models of cocaine use disorder. Output from the …
