Kavli Affiliate: Menno Witter | Authors: Daniel Reznik, Cheslie C. Klein, Shir Filo, Menno P. Witter and Charlotte Grosse Wiesmann | Summary: Episodic memory critically depends on the hippocampus and the entorhinal cortex. Despite a rapid developmental change in human episodic memory during the first two years of life, little is known about the developmental […]

Kavli Affiliate: Maryam Ziaei | Authors: Arjun Dave, Shuer Ye, Xiaqing Lan, Alireza Salami, Heidi Jacobs and Maryam Ziaei | Summary: The locus coeruleus (LC) regulates attention, arousal, and adaptive behavior via widespread noradrenergic projections to cortex, yet its large-scale cortical organization and age-related vulnerability remain poorly understood. Using 7T MRI during naturalistic movie-viewing with […]

Kavli Affiliate: Menno Witter | Authors: Sihui Cheng, Qirun Wang, Ye Feng, Cong Chen, Guge Suri, Yilan Liang, Yikai Yang, Kai Gao, Menno Witter, Huixia Yang, Jie Lin and Chenglin Miao | Summary: The hippocampus (HPC) and medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) are essential for learning, memory, and spatial cognition, and both exhibit dorsoventral (longitudinal) organization […]

Kavli Affiliate: Menno Witter | Authors: Daniel Reznik, Piotr Majka, Marcello GP Rosa, Menno P Witter and Christian F Doeller | Summary: The study of cross-species differences in the organization of the cerebral cortex received significant attention during the past century. However, the evolutionary principles governing changes in brain connectivity and their impact on cognition […]

Schnitzer and Clifford Kentrosa | Summary: Remembering object locations is crucial for survival, yet how the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) encodes spatial features across repeated experiences has not been fully characterized. […]

  Kavli Affiliate: Menno Witter | Authors: Eirik S. Nilssen, Bente Jacobsen, Thanh P. Doan, Paulo J.B. Girao and Menno P. Witter | Summary: The functionally different lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) and medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) are strongly interconnected. The role of this interconnectivity in view of their functional differences is not known. Here we […]

Kavli Affiliate: Clifford Kentros | Authors: Oscar M. T. Chadney, Matteo Guardamagna, Felix Dorr, Lucie A. L. Descamps, Federico Stella, Francesco Battaglia and Clifford G. Kentros | Summary: The hippocampus and its main input, the entorhinal cortex, are essential for memory formation, yet how they interact to do so remains unresolved. Hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons […]
