Journal ArticleDOI
Retrograde amnesia and memory consolidation: a neurobiological perspective.
Larry R. Squire,Pablo Alvarez +1 more
TL;DR: A simple neural network model is inspired that produces behavior consistent with experimental data and makes ideas about memory consolidation more concrete about how memory consolidation might actually occur.
Journal ArticleDOI
Memory consolidation and the medial temporal lobe: a simple network model
Pablo Alvarez,Larry R. Squire +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence that the medial temporal lobe memory system is involved in a process of consolidation is reviewed: memories are initially dependent on this system but gradually become established in other areas of the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Damage limited to the hippocampal region produces long-lasting memory impairment in monkeys
TL;DR: These findings show that, first, the hippocampal region itself is essential for normal memory function; and second, the adjacent entorhinal and parahippocampal cortices, either alone or in combination, are also an essential component of the medial temporal lobe memory system.
Journal ArticleDOI
The animal model of human amnesia: long-term memory impaired and short-term memory intact
TL;DR: The data indicate that the H+ lesion produces a selective impairment in long-term memory, in the absence of a detectable deficit in short- term memory or perception, which confirms the long-standing idea, based primarily on studies of humans, that short-termMemory is independent of medial temporal lobe function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crossmodal associative memory representations in rodent orbitofrontal cortex
TL;DR: Findings suggest that neurons in the OF encode cross-modal associations between odors and locations within long-term memory in rats trained to perform a task that encouraged incidental associations between distinct odors.
