An individualized cross-frequency coupling approach identified slow oscillation-spindle coupling strength as a novel mechanism that mediates memory formation during cortical maturation.

Synchronization of neural firing in the medial temporal lobe at fast, but not slow, theta and gamma oscillations correlates with shorter latencies of co-firing and successful memory formation.

Cholecystokinin-positive neural projection from entorhinal cortex to lateral amygdala modulates the long-term potentiation of auditory-evoked potential in lateral amygdala and underlies the formation of trace fear memory.

Delay-period activity of anterior piriform cortex is important for working memory tasks requiring active maintenance and encodes the maintained information.

Sleep-encoded vocabulary influences awake decision-making 36 hr later, particularly when targeting the vocabulary to slow-wave troughs, which suggests that unconscious episodic memory formation during deep sleep is possible.

Direct electrophysiological evidence demonstrates a role for the anterior thalamic nucleus in human memory formation.

Quantitative de novo proteomics paired with in vivo cell-specific non-canonical amino acid labelling identified several spatial long-term memory-induced changes in protein synthesis in hippocampal neurons.

The hippocampal CA1 20–40 Hz rhythm is associated with nonspatial sequence memory processing and may contribute to the role of the hippocampus in processing temporal relationships among events.

The formation of long-term memory in mice requires an element of RNA granules that localizes messenger RNAs to dendrites.

Precisely tracking the anatomical sources of neural computations infers functional directed connectivity between hippocampal memory neurons and cortical sensory neurons, it reveals information flowing from cortex to hippocampus during encoding but the reverse direction during maintenance.
