He won the Nobel Prize for his work on immunology and then went on to define the field of learning and memory.

Caban-Murillo et al. show that, during approach-avoidance conflict, prelimbic cortex ensembles are recruited to represent reward and punishment through distinct network patterns. Both ensembles are ne...

Neural mechanisms underlying remote memory retrieval are not fully understood. This study shows that the intensity of a threatening experience determines whether cortical neurons functionally contribu...

This form of amnesia is almost universal, but has long been overlooked.

Engrams, ensembles of neurons that store memories, exist along a continuum of retrievability. Normally, sensory cues can reactivate a latent engram to…
