Long-term memory formation is a major function of sleep. Based on evidence from
neurophysiological and behavioral studies mainly in humans and rodents, we consider the …

It is well established that stress has a major impact on memory, driven by the concerted
action of various stress mediators on the brain. Recent years, however, have seen …

The fields of neuroscience and artificial intelligence (AI) have a long and intertwined history.
In more recent times, however, communication and collaboration between the two fields has …

Episodic memory relies on the hippocampus, a heterogeneous brain region with distinct
functions. Spatial representations in the dorsal hippocampus (dHPC) are crucial for …

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

Experience replay lets online reinforcement learning agents remember and reuse
experiences from the past. In prior work, experience transitions were uniformly sampled from …

Executing memory-guided behavior requires storage of information about experience and
later recall of that information to inform choices. Awake hippocampal replay, when …

Replay is the reactivation of one or more neural patterns that are similar to the activation
patterns experienced during past waking experiences. Replay was first observed in …

Sharp wave ripples (SPW‐Rs) represent the most synchronous population pattern in the
mammalian brain. Their excitatory output affects a wide area of the cortex and several …

The mammalian hippocampus is important for normal memory function, particularly memory
for places and events. Place cells, neurons within the hippocampus that have spatial …
