Hippocampus Memory Formation Amygdala

Parallel Neural Circuits Mediate Distinct Aspects of Fear Memory

Fundamental aspects of learning and memory are well conserved among species and are necessary for survival. The hippocampus and amygdala are key regions of the brain underlying learning and memory processes. While the hippocampus is crucial for memory formation, the amygdala is involved in emotional processing and assigns valence to salient stimuli. Importantly, these two
