For the first time, a study in rats teases apart the role of the hippocampus in two functions of memory—one that remembers associations between time, place and what one did, and another that allows ...

RIKEN neuroscientists have gained new insights into how the hippocampus generates and sustains oscillations, which will be helpful for informing models on how the brain region works. Thomas McHugh of ...

The hippocampus, a small seahorse-shaped structure buried deep in the temporal lobe, acts as the brain’s primary gateway for converting fleeting experiences into stable, retrievable memories. What ...

In a recent study published in Neuronal Psychiatry, researchers explored the molecular and cellular processes regulated by tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP2) in the extracellular matrix ...

A. Overview of hippocampal dynamics during movie watching. FMRI data from the hippocampus were measured at the voxel level, and low-dimensional subspaces for two types of novelty and memorability were ...

The hippocampus plays a role in the brain's ability to learn and remember. In the Early Edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Mody et al. report the use of a microarray ...
