Dreaming with hippocampal damage
eLife, 2020 The hippocampus is linked with both sleep and memory, but there is debate about whether a salient aspect of sleep – dreaming – requires its input. To address this question, we investigated if human patients with focal bilateral hippocampal damage and ...

A single-system model predicts recognition memory and repetition priming in amnesia [PDF]
, 2014 We challenge the claim that there are distinct neural systems for explicit and implicit memory by demonstrating that a formal single-system model predicts the pattern of recognition memory (explicit) and repetition priming (implicit) in amnesia.

A human memory circuit derived from brain lesions causing amnesia
Nature Communications, 2019 Human memory is thought to depend on a circuit of connected brain regions, but this hypothesis has not been directly tested. We derive a human memory circuit using 53 case reports of strokes causing amnesia and a map of the human connectome (n = 1000 ...
