The aims of the paper are to update Rolls' quantitative computational theory of hippocampal
function and the predictions it makes about the different subregions (dentate gyrus, CA3 and …

The hippocampus is critically involved in certain kinds of memory. During memory formation,
it may operate as an integrated unit, or isolated parts may be responsible for different …

Gamma oscillations are thought to transiently link distributed cell assemblies that are
processing related information,, a function that is probably important for network processes …

Developments of an open-field water-maze procedure in which rats learn to escape from
opaque water onto a hidden platform are described. These include a procedure (A) for …

Recent work has shown that the hippocampus contains a class of receptors for the excitatory
amino acid glutamate that are activated by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) 1 and that exhibit …

State of the art deep reinforcement learning algorithms take many millions of interactions to
attain human-level performance. Humans, on the other hand, can very quickly exploit highly …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia affecting the elderly
population today; however, there is currently no accurate description of the etiology of this …

The hippocampus and its associated cortical regions in the medial temporal lobe play
essential roles when animals form a cognitive map and use it to achieve their goals. As the …

These studies were designed to determine whether adult neurogenesis occurs in the
dentate gyrus of the tree shrew, an animal phylogenetically between insectivores and …

▪ Abstract The organization and possible functions of basal forebrain and pontine cholinergic
systems are reviewed. Whereas the basal forebrain cholinergic neuronal projections likely …
