Figure 1. Subdivisions of the human memory and its associated
brain regions. Reproduced and modified from (Kandel et al., 2013;
Sweatt, 2003).
Figure 2. The anatomical features of the hippocampus.(a) and (b) illustrate the hippocampal formation of
human and rodent brain, respectively, in relation to three structures:
1) the fornix, which represents one of its output pathways; 2) the
entorhinal cortex, which serves as both an input and an output pathway;
and 3) the mammillary body, a target that it projects to. The amygdala
is located in the anterior part of the temporal lobe. The images are
adapted and modified from Martin (2021) and Sokolowski and Corbin
(2012).
Figure 3. Pathways in the hippocampus. Information arrives to
the hippocampus from the entorhinal cortex through the perforant
pathways and travels to the CA1 by both a direct (blue) and an indirect
(red), also called Trisynaptic circuit of the hippocampus. Arrows denote
the direction of impulse flow. Reproduced and modified from (Kandel et
al., 2013).
