What Can Hippocampal Engrams Tell Us About Encoding Spatial Navigation?
摘要
The hippocampus is indispensable for episodic memories, but its particular role in the process is still unclear. This chapter briefly overviews past studies focusing on place cells and memory engrams, highlighting their potential roles in spatial navigation. Future work reconciling these two lines of studies would provide a comprehensive view of the specific contribution of the hippocampus and a better understanding of how memory engrams support memory.
