Attractor networks are a popular computational construct used to model different brain
systems. These networks allow elegant computations that are thought to represent a number …

A wealth of experimental studies with animals have offered insights about how neural
networks within the hippocampus support the temporal organization of memories. These …

Mnemonic persistent activity in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) constitutes the neural basis of
working memory. To understand how neuromodulators contribute to the generation of …

The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is believed to support episodic memory, vivid recollection of
a specific event situated in a particular place at a particular time. There is ample …

The basolateral amygdala (BLA) is critical for associating initially neutral cues with appetitive
and aversive stimuli and receives dense neuromodulatory acetylcholine (ACh) projections …

Human aggression typologies largely correspond with those for other animals. While there
may be no non-human equivalent of angry reactive aggression, we propose that human …

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) efferent projections to limbic areas facilitate a top-down control
on the execution of goal-directed behaviours. The PFC sends glutamatergic outputs to limbic …

We propose a principled way to construct an internal representation of the temporal stimulus
history leading up to the present moment. A set of leaky integrators performs a Laplace …

In addition to innervating the cerebral cortex, basal forebrain cholinergic (BFc) neurons send
a dense projection to the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala (BLA). In this study, we …

Episodic memory, which depends critically on the integrity of the medial temporal lobe
(MTL), has been described as “mental time travel” in which the rememberer “jumps back in …
