Two facts about the hippocampus have been common currency among neuroscientists for
several decades. First, lesions of the hippocampus in humans prevent the acquisition of new …

Not all areas of neuronal systems investigation have matured to the stage where
computation can be understood at the microcircuit level. In mammals, insights into cortical …

There is no reasonable doubt that the hippocampus plays an important role in memory
processing. A virtually uncountable number of studies in animals and humans have …

Lesions of the hippocampus and related structures produce profound anterograde amnesia.
The amnesia is specific to what has been called “explicit,”“declarative,” and “episodic” …

The simple relationship of movement to position via temporal integration helps to explain
some of the neural representations of position seen in the mammalian brain, such as the …

In this paper a novel approach to neurocognitive modeling is proposed in which the central
constraints are provided by the theory of reinforcement learning. In this formulation learning …

The social movements of the 1960s and 1970s stand as a time in which coalition building
occurred in order to challenge inequitable US democratic practices and the denial of both …

There is surmounting evidence that reinforcement learning (RL) is a good model for the
dopamine system of the brain and the prefrontal cortex. RL is also promising from the …

Patterns of hippocampal ensemble activity that occur during a spatial experience are
reactivated during subsequent rest periods and slow wave sleep. Connections between …
