Theta oscillations in human memory
Theta frequency (4–8 Hz) fluctuations of the local field potential have long been implicated
in learning and memory. Human studies of episodic memory, however, have provided mixed …

A review of neurobiological factors underlying the selective enhancement of memory at encoding, consolidation, and retrieval
How is the strength of a memory determined? This review discusses three main factors that
contribute to memory enhancement-1) emotion, 2) targeted memory reactivation, and 3) …

vmPFC drives hippocampal processing during autobiographical memory recall regardless of remoteness
Our ability to recall past experiences, autobiographical memories (AMs), is crucial to
cognition, endowing us with a sense of self and underwriting our capacity for autonomy …

Hippocampal theta oscillations support successful associative memory formation
Models of memory formation posit that episodic memory formation depends critically on the
hippocampus, which binds features of an event to its context. For this reason, the contrast …

The neural dynamics of novel scene imagery
Retrieval of long-term episodic memories is characterized by synchronized neural activity
between hippocampus and ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), with additional …

The sync/desync model: How a synchronized hippocampus and a desynchronized neocortex code memories
Neural oscillations are important for memory formation in the brain. The desynchronization
of alpha (10 Hz) oscillations in the neocortex has been shown to predict successful memory …
