Striking case of a patient with medial temporal lobe amnesia. He performs at chance in laboratory recognition memory tests, but has nearly perfect recognition accuracy for a real-world experience, with the memories persisting for 15 months!

Long-term retention of real-world experiences in a patient with profound amnesia
The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is known to be critical for healthy memory function, but patients with MTL damage can, under certain circumstances, dem…

New paper out! 🎉 “Evolving Engrams Demand Changes in Effective Cues” (Hippocampus). In this opinion piece, we discuss how retrieval processes can be enhanced and offer an alternative to one of the field’s few enduring principles: encoding specificity. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Evolving Engrams Demand Changes in Effective Cues
A longstanding principle in episodic memory research, known as the encoding specificity hypothesis, holds that an effective retrieval cue should closely match the original encoding conditions. This p...
