Is Spatial Map Shaped by Environmental Determinants?
Humans and other animals form internal mental maps of the outer world in order to navigate. Hippocampal place cells and grid cells in MEC (medial entorhinal cortex) are the key components of this navigation system. However, ... -
Neural Correlates and Behavioral Underpinnings of Remote Memories during Systems Consolidation
Remote retrieval of declarative memories has been under investigation for a long time. After acquisition, long-term encoding of memories happens through crosstalk across multiple brain regions. Through systems consolidation, ... -
Optical and behavioural tools to investigate the neural correlates of learning and memory
Events in our everyday life are encoded as memories that can be consciously recollected and remembered, although our ability to retrieve the specific details associated with these events diminish with time. Such losses ... -
Structural Correlates of Related Contextual Learning in Retrosplenial Cortex
The discovery of dendritic spines by Santiago Ramón y Cajal is one of the most important chapters in the history of neuroscience. Apart from establishing the neuron doctrine, it presented dendritic spines as the information ...
