Survival of the salient: Aversive learning rescues otherwise forgettable memories via neural reactivation and post-encoding hippocampal connectivity

David Clewett et al.

Summary: The effects of aversive events on memory are complex, involving more than just the enhancement of threatening information. Negative experiences can also help preserve related but otherwise forgettable details. This study used fMRI to examine the brain mechanisms that support this retrograde memory effect and found multiple brain effects associated with this effect.

Not either-or but which-when: A review of the evidence for integration in sensory preconditioning

Nathan M. Holmes et al.

Summary: This paper reviews studies on sensory preconditioning in different animals and humans to determine how memory is integrated. The results show that memory integration can occur through chaining when stimuli are presented repeatedly or serially, while online integration occurs when stimuli are relatively novel or presented simultaneously.

Rapid neural reorganization during retrieval practice predicts subsequent long-term retention and false memory

Liping Zhuang et al.

Summary: The study shows that through retrieval practice, rapid neural reorganization and consolidation processes can enhance long-term memory retention and induce false memories. Long-term retention gains are associated with progressively increasing multi-voxel representation distinctiveness in the posterior parietal cortex, while false memories are related to unstable representation distinctiveness in the medial temporal lobe.

Suppression weakens unwanted memories via a sustained reduction of neural reactivation

Ann-Kristin Meyer et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of suppression on memories and finds that suppression leads to a reduction in memory vividness and neural reactivation.

Replay, the default mode network and the cascaded memory systems model

Karola Kaefer et al.

Summary: The replay of activity patterns and activation of brain areas during rest are important features of brain function. The default mode network (DMN) plays a crucial role in the propagation of replay and the consolidation of new memories. It also supports the reactivation of older memories and high-level semantic representations. Transient cortical activations are key mechanisms for the progression of representations from simple percepts to semantic representations.

Long-term learning transforms prefrontal cortex representations during working memory

Jacob A. Miller et al.

Summary: The role of the lateral prefrontal cortex in working memory is still a matter of debate. Non-human primate electrophysiology studies suggest that the lPFC stores working memory representations, while human neuroimaging studies indicate that it controls the content of working memory in sensory cortices. This study demonstrates that long-term training can shape the functioning of the lPFC and that working memory representations are influenced by long-term experience, potentially reconciling the conflicting accounts.

Tag and capture: how salient experiences target and rescue nearby events in memory br

Joseph E. Dunsmoor et al.

Summary: This research explores how the long-term fate of memory is influenced by the events occurring during encoding as well as the surrounding neurochemical activations. The study shows that weakly formed memories can be enhanced minutes to hours before or after a related motivationally relevant experience. Proposed neurobiological mechanisms for strengthening weak memories formed in temporal proximity to a strong event are discussed, along with the potential for using this knowledge to improve memory retention for easily forgotten information.

Socioeconomic Disparities Affect Children's Amygdala-Prefrontal Circuitry via Stress Hormone Response

Ting Tian et al.

Summary: This study found that children from lower SES have lower cortisol secretion, leading to increased functional connectivity between the amygdala and prefrontal cortex, which affects emotional processing. Through stress-sensitive cortisol secretion, SES shapes children's amygdala-prefrontal circuitry, particularly in processing negative emotions.

Shared neural codes for visual and semantic information about familiar faces in a common representational space

Matteo Visconti di Oleggio Castello et al.

Summary: The study found that the identities of both personally familiar and merely visually familiar faces can be accurately decoded across brains in the core system for visual processing, but only the identities of personally familiar faces can be decoded across brains in the extended system for processing nonvisual information associated with faces. Personal interactions lead to shared neural representations of seen and unseen features that distinguish identities.

Brain preparedness: The proactive role of the cortisol awakening response in hippocampal-prefrontal functional interactions

Bingsen Xiong et al.

Summary: The cortisol awakening response (CAR) is a crucial point in the healthy cortisol circadian rhythm, preparing the brain for challenges and promoting neurocognitive efficiency. Studies have found a causal link between CAR and its proactive role in optimizing functional brain networks.

Timing variability and midfrontal ∼4 Hz rhythms correlate with cognition in Parkinson's disease

Arun Singh et al.

Summary: In this study, the researchers used scalp EEG to investigate the cortical basis for cognitive impairments in Parkinson's disease (PD). They found that PD patients showed increased timing variability and attenuated EEG oscillatory activity at midfrontal electrodes, which correlated with cognitive dysfunction as measured by the MOCA test. The impaired cue-evoked midfrontal activity predicted the increased timing variability in PD patients, suggesting a link between PD-related cognitive dysfunction and cortical mechanisms of cognitive control that could potentially lead to new biomarkers and neuromodulation strategies for PD.

Neural circuits for inference-based decision-making
