Historically, the thalamus has been viewed as little more than a relay, simply transferring
information to key players of the cast, the cortex and hippocampus, without providing any …

Standard models of episodic memory focus on hippocampal–parahippocampal interactions,
with the neocortex supplying sensory information and providing a final repository of …

Retrosplenial cortex is a region within the posterior neocortical system, heavily
interconnected with an array of brain networks, both cortical and subcortical, that is …

The anterior thalamic nuclei (ATN), a central component of Papez'circuit, are generally
assumed to be key constituents of the neural circuits responsible for certain categories of …

To successfully navigate the environment, animals depend on their ability to continuously
track their heading direction and speed. Neurons that encode angular head velocity (AHV) …

A review of medial temporal lobe connections reveals three distinct groupings of
hippocampal efferents. These efferent systems and their putative memory functions are:(1) …

The anterior thalamic nuclei are a vital node within hippocampal-diencephalic-cingulate
circuits that support spatial learning and memory. Reflecting this interconnectivity, the …

Memories initially formed in hippocampus gradually stabilize to cortex over weeks-to-months
for long-term storage. The mechanistic details of this brain re-organization remain poorly …

Navigation depends on multiple neural systems that encode the moment-to-moment
changes in an animal's direction and location in space. These include head direction (HD) …

After more than 80 years, Papez serial circuit remains a hugely influential concept, initially
for emotion, but in more recent decades, for memory. Here, we show how this circuit is …
