A team of scientists from the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has ...

A team of scientists has unveiled how the hippocampus orchestrates multiple memory processes, including encoding new information, forming memories, and retrieving them.

The hippocampus plays a crucial role in memory formation. However, it is not yet fully understood in what way that brain structure's individual regions are involved in the formation of memories ...

Bird and Burgess review the hippocampus's role in memory in light of a model of neuronal processing in which hippocampal activity constrains neocortical information to be perceivable from a single ...

Where and when you form new memories affects where they are stored in the brain's hippocampus, which is the memory center in our brain, researchers at Ohio State University found in a new study ...

The memory center Inside the hippocampus, several types of neurons are involved in memory processing. Granule cells, for instance, are important for handling incoming information.

Researchers aimed to record activity in the hippocampus — the portion of the brain associated with emotions, memory and the autonomic nervous system.

A patient known as H.M. undergoes surgery to remove his hippocampus, later revealing the role that the brain structure plays in memory. Studies of his ...

It's thought that the process of writing a working memory into the long-term memory store is largely controlled by a seahorse-shaped set of neurons in the brain called the hippocampus. How and ...

A study in rats teases apart the role of the hippocampus in two functions of memory – one that remembers associations between time, place and what one did, and another that allows one to predict or ...

A new study shows how individual brain cells in the hippocampus respond to pronouns. "This may help us unravel how we remember what we read," say the authors. Their research is published in the ...

These findings not only deepen our understanding of memory encoding and retrieval but also provide insights into the hippocampus’s role as a coordinator and its interaction with the neocortex.
