These findings therefore reveal that aversive memory formation in humans depends on an amygdala-hippocampus "phase code": The amygdala coordinates the neuronal activity in the hippocampus, ...

A research team led by Dr. WANG Liang from the Institute of Psychology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has found that right hippocampal theta power hierarchically encodes the distance between the ...

The dentate gyrus (DG) is a region of the mammalian brain known to support the encoding of new memories. This brain region is part of the hippocampal formation, a set of brain regions involved in ...

The CA1 Core Hub: The research team identified that approximately one in four memory cells within the cornus ammonis 1 (CA1) ...

Neurons produce rhythmic patterns of electrical activity in the brain. One of the unsettled questions in the field of neuroscience is what primarily drives these rhythmic signals, called oscillations.

After a traumatic event, people with decreased activity in the hippocampus experience worse PTSD symptoms, according to new research published in JNeurosci. The hippocampus does more than encode new ...

Researchers have developed a soft contact lens embedded with electrical stimulation electrodes that, in a mouse model of depression, reduced depression-like behaviors and altered brain activity ...

A study suggests that 20 minutes of moderate cycling increases brain activity in the hippocampus, a region critical for learning and memory. This increased hippocampal activity may support memory ...
