A new study has revealed that in primates with specialized visual systems, the generation of motor commands for exploratory saccades occurs in the midbrain, then propagates to the thalamus, and finally reaches hippocampal circuits in the depths of the temporal lobe, influencing the formation of memories.
A new study has found that, in primates with highly specialized visual systems, a corollary discharge of motor commands to make exploratory saccades arises in the midbrain, propagates to the thalamus, and then reaches hippocampal circuits in the depths of the temporal lobe where it shapes the making of memories.
