The hippocampus and its extended network contribute to encoding and recall of episodic
experiences. Drawing from recent anatomical, physiological, and behavioral studies, we …

Memory, defined as the storage and use of learned information in the brain, is necessary to
modulate behavior and critical for animals to adapt to their environments and survive …

Long-lasting synaptic changes within the neuronal network mediate memory. Neurons
bearing such physical traces of memory (memory engram cells) are often equated with …

Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) studies have shown abnormalities in the
brain structure of ASD patients, but the relationship between structural changes and social …

Seizures cause retrograde amnesia. We have previously demonstrated that seizures erode
recently formed memories through shared ensembles and mechanisms in the CA1 region of …

Ventral adult hippocampal neurogenesis may be a key factor in determining individual
levels of vulnerability to stress and related psychiatric disorders. However, the underlying …

Central nervous system (CNS) development is a very complex process that can be altered
by environmental stimuli such as noise, which can generate long-term auditory and/or extra …

Background The hippocampus is a heterogeneous structure, comprising histologically and
functionally distinguishable hippocampal subfields. The volume reductions in hippocampal …

Premature birth is associated with a high prevalence of neurodevelopmental impairments in
surviving infants. The hippocampus is known to be critical for learning and memory, yet the …

The hippocampus has been shown to have a major role in learning and memory, but also to
participate in the regulation of emotions. However, its specific role (s) in memory is still …
