| Open AccessCortical–hippocampal coupling during manifold exploration in motor cortex
A new study explores the activity dialogue between hippocampus and cortex as neuronal representations of learning or adaptation are consolidated.

Adaptive stimulus selection for consolidation in the hippocampus
In memory consolidation, the hippocampus has a unique way to preferentially amplify behaviour-relevant information that entails ‘replaying’ this information during periods of rest.

eIF2α controls memory consolidation via excitatory and somatostatin neurons
Stimulation of de novo protein synthesis in both excitatory and inhibitory, somatostatin-expressing neurons in the mouse hippocampus enhances memory consolidation.

Nearest neighbours reveal fast and slow components of motor learning
A new method for analysing change in high-dimensional data is based on nearest-neighbour statistics and is applied here to song dynamics during vocal learning in zebra finches, but could potentially be applied to other biological and artificial behaviours.

The hippocampus is crucial for forming non-hippocampal long-term memory during sleep
Hippocampal activity during a period of sleep after memory encoding is crucial for forming long-term memories in rats, even for types of memory considered not to be hippocampus-dependent.

Locus coeruleus and dopaminergic consolidation of everyday memory
Projections from the locus coeruleus, an area typically defined by noradrenergic signalling, to the hippocampus drive novelty-based memory enhancement through possible co-release of dopamine.

Parvalbumin-expressing basket-cell network plasticity induced by experience regulates adult learning
In adult mouse hippocampus, a learning-associated plasticity mechanism may exist that depends on the configuration of parvalbumin(PV)-expressing basket cell networks; trial and error learning initially promotes a higher fraction of cells with low PV expression, whereas learning completion promotes a higher fraction of cells with high PV expression, and these opposite configurations modulate learning and the underlying structural plasticity.

Editing out fear
Retrieving a memory initiates a window of vulnerability for that memory. Simple behavioural methods can modify distressing memories during this window, eliminating fear reactions to traumatic reminders.
