The hippocampus is critical for learning and memory, relying in part on pattern separation
processes supported by the dentate gyrus (DG) to prevent interference from overlapping …

Pattern separation, or the process by which highly similar stimuli or experiences in memory
are represented by non-overlapping neural ensembles, has typically been ascribed to …

The ability to form precise, episodic memories develops with age, with young children only
able to form gist-like memories that lack precision. The cellular and molecular events in the …

Background: The fornix is the primary axonal tract of the hippocampus, connecting it to
modulatory subcortical structures. This review reveals that fornix damage causes cognitive …

Across development, interactions between value-based learning and memory processes
promote the formation of mental models that enable flexible goal pursuit. Value cues in the …

Memory and metamemory processes are essential to retrieve detailed memories and
appreciate the phenomenological experience of recollection. Developmental cognitive …

The ongoing stream of sensory experience is so complex and ever‐changing that we tend to
parse this experience at “event boundaries,” which structures and strengthens memory …

Episodic memory binds the diverse elements of an event into a coherent representation.
This coherence allows for the reconstruction of different aspects of an experience when …

Human episodic memory is not functionally evident until about 2 years of age and continues
to develop into the school years. Behavioral studies have elucidated this developmental …

Semantic memory—general knowledge of ideas and concepts—includes generalization
processes that support inference. Episodic memory, on the other hand, preserves the …
