Journal ArticleDOI

Functional neuroanatomy of remote episodic, semantic and spatial memory: a unified account based on multiple trace theory

TL;DR: The evidence suggests strongly that the function of the hippocampus (and possibly that of related limbic structures) is to help encode, retain, and retrieve experiences, no matter how long ago the events comprising the experience occurred, and no matter whether the memories are episodic or spatial.
Journal ArticleDOI

The cognitive neuroscience of remote episodic, semantic and spatial memory.

TL;DR: A unified account based on multiple trace theory is proposed, which states that the hippocampus is needed for re-experiencing detailed episodic and spatial memories no matter how old they are, and that it contributes to the formation and assimilation of semantic memories and schematic spatial maps.
Journal ArticleDOI

Remembering Our Past: Functional Neuroanatomy of Recollection of Recent and Very Remote Personal Events

TL;DR: It was found that context-rich memories were associated with activity in lingual and precuneus gyri independently of their age, and Hippocampal activation was related to the richness of re-experiencing (vividness) rather than the age of the memory per se.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurobiology of Schemas and Schema-Mediated Memory.

TL;DR: The vmPFC and hippocampus may compete or synchronize to optimize schema-related learning depending on the specific operationalization of schema memory, which highlights the need for more precise definitions of memory schemas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal MRI study of hippocampal volume in trauma survivors with PTSD.

TL;DR: Smaller hippocampal volume is not a necessary risk factor for developing PTSD and does not occur within 6 months of expressing the disorder.
