- Memories of life episodes are crucial to individual stories, but understanding how episodic memory is formed and stored is challenging in both humans and animals.
- A study using a new task in rodents demonstrates that rats can create and remember integrated remote episodic memories, showing variations in memory content and accuracy based on their emotional ties to specific odors.
- Advanced brain imaging revealed that activated brain networks involved in recollecting these memories reflect their nature and content, highlighting the importance of both a cortico-hippocampal network for complete recollection and an emotional network related to odors for maintaining vivid memories.
