Recognition memory signals in the macaque hippocampus.
The hippocampus plays a critical role in recognition memory in both monkeys and humans. However, neurophysiological studies have rarely reported recognition memory signals among hippocampal neurons. The majority of these previous studies used variants of the delayed match-to-sample task; however, studies of the effects of hippocampal damage in monkey and humans have shown that another task of r...
متن کاملEpisodic Memory Signals in the Rat Hippocampus
How does the hippocampus signal memory for episodes? In this issue of Neuron, Ferbinteanu and Shapiro show that classic place cell activity in the rat hippocampus together with robust retrospective and prospective memory signals reflects the sequence of past, present, and future events that make up an episode.
متن کاملGamma-band synchronization in the macaque hippocampus and memory formation.
Increasing evidence suggests that neuronal synchronization in the gamma band (30-100 Hz) may play an important role in mediating cognitive processes. Gamma-band synchronization provides for the optimal temporal relationship between two signals to produce the long-term synaptic changes that have been theorized to underlie memory formation. Although neuronal populations in the hippocampus oscilla...
متن کاملSpatial memory, recognition memory, and the hippocampus.
There is wide agreement that spatial memory is dependent on the integrity of the hippocampus, but the importance of the hippocampus for nonspatial tasks, including tasks of object recognition memory is not as clear. We examined the relationship between hippocampal lesion size and both spatial memory and object recognition memory in rats. Spatial memory was impaired after bilateral dorsal hippoc...
متن کاملRecognition Memory and the Human Hippocampus
The capacity for declarative memory depends on the hippocampal region and adjacent cortex within the medial temporal lobe. One of the most widely studied examples of declarative memory is the capacity to recognize recently encountered material as familiar, but uncertainty remains about whether intact recognition memory depends on the hippocampal region itself and, if so, what the nature of the ...
