Which specific memory functions are dependent on the hippocampus is still debated. The availability of a large cohort of patients who had sustainedrelatively selective hippocampal damage early inlife enabled us to determine which type ofmnemonic deficit showed a correlation with extent of hippocampal ...
Despite years of studies intended to make these neurological distinctions and identify the role of the hippocampus, it remains unclear; investigators have proposed that the hippocampus is responsible for recall, while parahippocampal structures handlerecognitionand discrimination activities. But a number of ...
In what part of the brain is the hippocampus located? What role does the hippocampus play in memory? What does the medulla control? What is the role of the hippocampus in memory formation? What does the reticular formation control? Where is the hippocampus located in the brain?
What Role Does (Should) Lithium Play in Suicide Treatment/Prevention?The article discusses the use of lithium as an anti-suicidal drug for patients with affective disorders and the treatment mechanism involved. Topics include the suicide statistics published by the World Health Organization (WHO) on...
What role does post-traumatic stress disorder play in memory retrieval, persistence of memories, and interference? What causes false memory syndrome? What does the Sternberg task tell us about the retrieval of information from short-term memory?
Automatically recognizing gestures of the hand is a promising approach to communicating with computers, particularly when keyboard and mouse interactions are inconvenient, when only a brief interaction is necessary, or when a command involves a three-dimensional, spatial component. Which gestures are most...
What role does the hypothalamus play in the activation of the fight-flight response? a. It releases dopamine into the blood stream. b. It transfers sensory information to the stress centers of the brain. c. It triggers the pituitary ...
What role does myelin play in white matter? Myelin sheaths around axons increase the speed of electrical signal transmission. 5 How do grey and white matter interact in the brain? Grey matter processes information which is then communicated through the white matter's network, integrating brain func...
Controls Necessary Signals and Communication Mechanisms: The controller plays the role of a bridge, transmitting signals between the driver and the vehicle’s intricate system and back again. For example, it relays crucial data such as the charge level, battery performance, the vehicle’s motion, ...
Generating and stabilizing hippocampus-dependent long-term memory: role of iGluRs in LTP induction and memory formation What are the initial steps of LTM formation? Decades of intensive investigation in experimental neuroscience revealed key mechanisms underpinning synaptic plasticity induced by hippocampal ...
