Their results showed: Aligned subspaces for the two types of novelty, suggesting that the hippocampus integrates diverse forms of novel information. Alignment between novelty and memory formation ...

Researchers at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have studied the impact of two brain areas on the nature of memory content. The team from the Department of Neurophysiology showed in rats how the ...

Our brains constantly create internal maps of the world, allowing us to navigate spaces, recall past experiences, ...

The hippocampal formation also includes the entorhinal cortex. As part of the limbic system, the hippocampus is involved in memory encoding and storage. Our study investigated brain waves in ...

Researchers at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have studied the impact of two brain areas on the nature of memory content.

This process is known as higher-order conditioning and can be measured using sensory preconditioning tasks in rodents. This behavioral paradigm requires the repeated and simultaneous presentation of ...
