Standard models of episodic memory focus on hippocampal–parahippocampal interactions,
with the neocortex supplying sensory information and providing a final repository of …

Rats and mice are used for studying neuronal circuits underlying recognition memory due to
their ability to spontaneously remember the occurrence of an object, its place and an …

After more than 80 years, Papez serial circuit remains a hugely influential concept, initially
for emotion, but in more recent decades, for memory. Here, we show how this circuit is …

The construction of complex engrams requires hippocampal–cortical interactions. These
include both direct interactions and ones via often-overlooked subcortical loops. Here, we …

Extensive neuroanatomical connectivity between the anterior thalamic nuclei (ATN) and
hippocampus and neocortex renders them well-placed for a role in memory processing, and …

Hippocampal (HPC) theta oscillation during post-training rapid eye movement (REM) sleep
supports spatial learning. Theta also modulates neuronal and oscillatory activity in the …

Just as hippocampal lesions are principally responsible for “temporal lobe” amnesia, lesions
affecting the anterior thalamic nuclei seem principally responsible for a similar loss of …

Abstract mGluR2 receptors are widely expressed in limbic brain regions associated with
memory, including the hippocampal formation, retrosplenial and frontal cortices, as well as …

Despite their small size, the mammillary bodies play an important role in supporting
recollective memory. However, they have typically been overlooked when assessing …

Two thalamic sites are of especial significance for understanding hippocampal–
diencephalic interactions: the anterior thalamic nuclei and nucleus reuniens. Both nuclei …
