The hippocampus, ventromedial prefrontal cortex, and episodic and semantic memory

ET Rolls - Progress in Neurobiology, 2022 - Elsevier
The human ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC)/anterior cingulate cortex is implicated in
reward and emotion, but also in memory. It is shown how the human orbitofrontal cortex …

[HTML][HTML] A theory of hippocampal function: new developments
