Various cognitive functions have long been known to require the hippocampus. Recently,
progress has been made in identifying the hippocampal neural activity patterns that …

Hippocampal and parahippocampal gyrus spatial view neurons in primates respond to the
spatial location being looked at. The representation is allocentric, in that the responses are …

We describe an integrative model that encodes associations between related concepts in
the human hippocampal formation, constituting the skeleton of episodic memories. The …

Memory is essential to adaptive behavior because it allows past experience to guide
choices. Emerging findings indicate that the neurotransmitter dopamine, which signals …

Intracranial recordings in subjects suffering from intractable epilepsy—made during their
evaluation for an eventual surgical removal of the epileptic focus—have allowed the …

A quantitative computational theory of the operation of the hippocampus as an episodic
memory system is described. The CA3 system operates as a single attractor or …

Hippocampal spatial view neurons in primates respond to the place where a monkey is
looking, with some modulation by place. In contrast, hippocampal neurons in rodents …

Memories initially formed in hippocampus gradually stabilize to cortex over weeks-to-months
for long-term storage. The mechanistic details of this brain re-organization remain poorly …

Remembering experiences that lead to reward is essential for survival. The hippocampus is
required for forming and storing memories of events and places, but the mechanisms that …

The creation of memories about real-life episodes requires rapid neuronal changes that may
appear after a single occurrence of an event. How is such demand met by neurons in the …
