Hippocampal-Prefrontal Cortical Circuit and Working Memory
Wang, Gong-Wu & Cai, Jing-Xia
Abstract
The study on learning and memory is one of the striking subjects in neuroscience today. In the cerebral
cortex, it is has been proved that, the hippocampus, the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampal-prefrontal cortical circuit
are important to working memory. In this paper, we review findings of the anatomical and electrophysiological
characteristics of the hippocampal-prefrontal cortical circuit and the roles of these three structures in working memory.
Keywords
