Article Synopsis
  • The perirhinal cortex (PRc) is crucial for visual recognition memory, with specific medial subregions identified as key players through a study on macaques.
  • Disruption of the medial PRc significantly impaired recognition memory primarily at longer delay intervals (30 and 60 seconds), while the lateral PRc did not exhibit the same effects.
  • The research further highlights that both NMDA and AMPA receptor activity are essential for object recognition memory, enhancing our understanding of PRc's role beyond what has been previously known.

The INIA19 is a new, high-quality template for imaging-based studies of non-human primate brains, created from high-resolution, T(1)-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) images of 19 rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) animals. Combined with the comprehensive cortical and sub-cortical label map of the NeuroMaps atlas, the INIA19 is equally suitable for studies requiring both spatial normalization and atlas label propagation. Population-averaged template images are provided for both the brain and the whole head, to allow alignment of the atlas with both skull-stripped and unstripped data, and thus to facilitate its use for skull stripping of new images.

NeuroMaps (2010) is a Web-based application that enables investigators to map data from macaque studies to a canonical atlas of the macaque brain. It currently serves as an image processor enabling them to create figures suitable for publication, presentation and archival purposes. Eventually it will enable investigators studying any of several species to analyze the overlap between their data and multimodality data mapped by others.

April 2004

NeuroNames is a nomenclature designed as a tool for indexing digital databases of neuroscientific information. It can be used, for example, as the entry point to a digital dictionary of neuroanatomy, to a brain atlas, or to a database of information referenced to specific brain structures. The user can query with terms from many different nomenclatures.
