The Hippocampus Book

·2006·Oxford University Press eBooks

Abstract

Abstract The hippocampus is one of a group of remarkable structures embedded within the brain's medial temporal lobe. Long known to be important for memory, it has been a prime focus of neuroscience research for many years. This book aims to facilitate developments in the field in a major way by bringing together contributions by leading international scientists knowledgeable about hippocampal anatomy, physiology, and function. This book offers an up-to-date account of what the hippocampus does, how it does it, and what happens when things go wrong. At the same time, it illustrates how research focusing on this single brain structure has revealed principles of wider generality for the whole brain in relation to anatomical connectivity, synaptic plasticity, cognition and behavior, and computational algorithms. Well-organized in its presentation of both theory and experimental data, this book illustrates the astonishing progress that has been made in unraveling the workings of the brain.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • About 250,000 principal cells from ipsilateral ECIII synapse onto the CA1 region, and approximately 2% of these cells are active per theta cycle at a low firing rate, so ECIII cells could provide 5000 input spikes to ipsilateral CA1.

    “About 250,000 principal cells from ipsilateral ECIII synapse onto the CA1 region (Andersen et al., 2006), and approximately 2% of these cells are active per theta cycle at a low firing rate (Csicsvari et al., 1999; Mizuseki et al., 2009). Therefore, ECIII cells could provide 5000 input spikes to ipsilateral CA1 (Equation 3).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
