The roles of the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex (PFC) in memory processing—
individually or in concert—are a major topic of interest in memory research. These brain …

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 …

The nucleus reuniens of the thalamus (RE) is a key component of an extensive network of
hippocampal and cortical structures and is a fundamental substrate for cognition. A common …

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 …

Long-term depression (LTD) in the CNS has been the subject of intense investigation as a
process that may be involved in learning and memory and in various pathological …

One prominent view holds that episodic memory emerged recently in humans and lacks a
“(neo) Darwinian evolution”[Tulving E (2002) Annu Rev Psychol 53: 1–25]. Here, we review …

Abstract Information concerning the roles of different brain regions in recognition memory
processes is reviewed. The review concentrates on findings from spontaneous recognition …

The one-trial object recognition task involves memory of a familiar object in parallel with the
detection and encoding of a novel object. It provides the basis for the study of a wide range …

Rats and mice have been demonstrated to show episodic-like memory, a prototype of
episodic memory, as defined by an integrated memory of the experience of an object or …

While it is acknowledged that species specific differences are an implicit condition of
comparative studies, rodent models of prefrontal function serve a significant role in the …
