Associating spatial locations with rewards is fundamental to survival in natural environments
and requires the integrity of the hippocampus and ventral striatum. In joint multineuron …

A functional interaction between the hippocampal formation and the ventral striatum is
thought to contribute to the learning and expression of associations between places and …

A key question in the analysis of hippocampal memory relates to how attention modulates
the encoding and long-term retrieval of spatial and nonspatial representations in this region …

Hippocampal place cells support reward-related spatial memories by forming a cognitive
map that over-represents reward locations. The strength of these memories is modulated by …

The hippocampal formation is critical for the acquisition and consolidation of memories.
When recorded in freely moving animals, hippocampal pyramidal neurons fire in a location …

Hippocampal place cells selectively fire when an animal traverses a particular location and
are considered a neural substrate of spatial memory. Place cells were shown to change their …

The consolidation of memories for places and events is thought to rely, at the network level,
on the replay of spatially tuned neuronal firing patterns representing discrete places and …

The hippocampus is the main locus of episodic memory formation and the neurons there
encode the spatial map of the environment. Hippocampal place cells represent location, but …

The striatum and hippocampus are widely held to be components of distinct memory
systems that can guide competing behavioral strategies. However, some …

Dominant theories of hippocampal function propose that place cell representations are
formed during an animal's first encounter with a novel environment and are subsequently …
