| | Hippocampus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | However, for many years, the conventional view of the hippocampus was that, like the rest of the limbic system, it was responsible for emotion. | | | A study on rats at Indiana University suggested that the sexual dimorphism in the hippocampus morphology is tied to a sexual dimorphism in repeated maze performance. | | | And there is evidence (e.g., O'Kane et al 2004) to suggest that patient HM (who had his medial temporal lobes removed bilaterally as a treatment for epilepsy) can form new semantic memories. |

| | Memory Loss & the Brain |
| | The hippocampus is a brain structure which lies under the medial temporal lobe, one on each side of the brain. | | | The hippocampus is especially sensitive to global reductions in oxygen level in the body. | | | A current research area is to determine exactly what kinds of learning and memory can survive hippocampal damage, and how these kinds of learning can be used to guide rehabilitation. |

| | Associative Learning and the Hippocampus |
| | These finding suggest that the hippocampus participate in all stages of the learning process from several trials before behavioral learning is expressed, when the observed activity may be involved in driving the behavioral changes that underlie learning to several trials after learning, when the activity may be involved in strengthening the newly formed association. | | | Suzuki is the recipient of the Lindsley Prize in Behavioral Neuroscience (1994) and the Troland award in Experimental Psychology (2004). | | | We hypothesized that if the hippocampus is important for the early formation of the new associations, we should see changes in neural activity that parallel behavioral learning. |

| | Reporting in the June 15 issue of The Journal of Neuroscience, they say people who have been depressed have smaller volumes in a seahorse-shaped brain structure called the hippocampus that is important in learning and memory. | | | We thought the hippocampus would be somewhat smaller in our older subjects who had never been depressed, but instead we saw significant volume loss only in patients with a history of depression." | | | The researchers also found loss of volume in part of the amygdala, a brain structure associated with emotion. |
