Uteroplacental insufficiency (UPI) produces significant neurodevelopmental deficits affecting the hippocampus of intrauterine growth–restricted (IUGR) offspring. IUGR males have worse deficits ...

Previous studies have shown that excitotoxic hippocampal lesions in rats attenuate the ability of different doses of haloperidol, but not of clozapine, to suppress locomotor activity. The purpose ...

Rodent medial prefrontal cortex is not crucial for an active place avoidance task requiring cognitive control evidenced by hippocampal activity that purposefully alternates between task-relevant and ...

Once in the hippocampus, memories and learning can be transmitted to different parts of the brain and retrieved whenever ...

In a new study, researchers have developed a comprehensive in silico model of the rat hippocampal CA1 region. This model is unique as it integrates a wide range of experimental data, from the ...

Moving bar of light evokes vectorial spatial selectivity in the immobile rat hippocampus. Nature , 2022; 602 (7897): 461 DOI: 10.1038/s41586-022-04404-x Cite This Page : ...

“As the rat explores the whole environment, we can read the map that its hippocampus creates,” Lee says. The scientists then put the rats’ mental mapping skills to the test.

In the team’s system, the BMI produces a connection between the electrical activity in the rat’s hippocampus and its position in a 360-degree virtual reality arena.

Place cells in the hippocampus fire when we are in a certain position—this discovery by John O'Keefe, May-Britt Moser and Edvard Moser won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2014. Based on which ...

John O'Keefe of University College London used microelectrodes to monitor action potentials in rats in the hippocampus, an area of the brain known for decades to be important for memory functions.
