Functional organization of the hippocampal longitudinal axis

BA Strange, MP Witter, ES Lein, EI Moser - Nature reviews …, 2014 - nature.com
The precise functional role of the hippocampus remains a topic of much debate. The dominant
view is that the dorsal (or posterior) hippocampus is implicated in memory and spatial …

The anatomy of memory: an interactive overview of the parahippocampal–hippocampal network

NM Van Strien, NLM Cappaert, MP Witter - Nature reviews …, 2009 - nature.com
Converging evidence suggests that each parahippocampal and hippocampal subregion
contributes uniquely to the encoding, consolidation and retrieval of declarative memories, but …

Functional organization of the extrinsic and intrinsic circuitry of the parahippocampal region

MP Witter, HJ Groenewegen, FHL Da Silva… - Progress in …, 1989 - Elsevier
As implied by its name, the parahippocampal region (PHR), by some authors also named the
retrohippocampal area, is a brain area that lies adjacent to the hippocampal formation. It is …

Schemas and memory consolidation

…, I Bethus, PA Spooner, ER Wood, MP Witter… - Science, 2007 - science.org
Memory encoding occurs rapidly, but the consolidation of memory in the neocortex has long
been held to be a more gradual process. We now report, however, that systems …

… In a recent series of experiments (Witter and Jorritsma~yham, unpublished obse~ations),
smali injections of PHA-L were pIa&-d into several regions of the rat entorhinai cortex. The …

Recurrent inhibitory circuitry as a mechanism for grid formation

…, MB Moser, EI Moser, Y Roudi, MP Witter - Nature …, 2013 - nature.com
Grid cells in layer II of the medial entorhinal cortex form a principal component of the
mammalian neural representation of space. The firing pattern of a single grid cell has been …

Conjunctive representation of position, direction, and velocity in entorhinal cortex

…, M Fyhn, T Hafting, BL McNaughton, MP Witter… - Science, 2006 - science.org
Grid cells in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) are part of an environment-independent spatial
coordinate system. To determine how information about location, direction, and distance …

Spatial representation in the entorhinal cortex

M Fyhn, S Molden, MP Witter, EI Moser, MB Moser - Science, 2004 - science.org
As the interface between hippocampus and neocortex, the entorhinal cortex is likely to play
a pivotal role in memory. To determine how information is represented in this area, we …

Distribution of hippocampal CA1 and subicular efferents in the prefrontal cortex of the rat studied by means of anterograde transport of Phaseolus vulgaris …

TM Jay, MP Witter - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1991 - Wiley Online Library
Projections of the hippocampal formation to the prefrontal cortex were visualized in the rat
by means of the anterograde tracer Phaseolus vulgaris‐leucoagglutinin. These projections …
