Fear memory is the best-studied form of memory. It was thoroughly investigated in the past
60 years mostly using two classical conditioning procedures (contextual fear conditioning …

When animals interact with complex environments, their neural circuits must separate
overlapping patterns of activity that represent sensory and motor information. Pattern …

Automated analysis of MRI data of the subregions of the hippocampus requires
computational atlases built at a higher resolution than those that are typically used in current …

A specific memory is thought to be encoded by a sparse population of neurons,. These
neurons can be tagged during learning for subsequent identification and manipulation …

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 …

Accumulating evidence from animal and human research shows exercise benefits learning
and memory, which may reduce the risk of neurodegenerative diseases, and could delay …

Hippocampal neurons activated during encoding drive the recall of contextual fear memory.
Little is known about how such ensembles emerge during acquisition and eventually form …

The history of vitamin A goes back over one hundred years, but our realization of its
importance for the brain and cognition is much more recent. The brain is more efficient than …

The generalization of fear is an adaptive, behavioral, and physiological response to the
likelihood of threat in the environment. In contrast, the overgeneralization of fear, a cardinal …

Our day-to-day experiences are often similar to one another, occurring in the same place at
the same time of day, with common people and objects, and with a shared purpose. Humans …
