[HTML][HTML] Hippocampal “time cells” bridge the gap in memory for discontiguous events

CJ MacDonald, KQ Lepage, UT Eden, H Eichenbaum - Neuron, 2011 - cell.com
The hippocampus is critical to remembering the flow of events in distinct experiences and, in
doing so, bridges temporal gaps between discontiguous events. Here, we report a robust …

Preference by association: how memory mechanisms in the hippocampus bias decisions

GE Wimmer, D Shohamy - Science, 2012 - science.org
