Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Melanie MacGillivray"
- Melanie MacGillivray's research primarily focuses on the functional roles of different hippocampal subfields and subregions in facilitating various types of memory processes, including episodic, spatial, and associative memories.
- Her 2019 article analyzes the hippocampus's segmentation based on the anteroposterior sections (head, body, tail) and transverse axis subfields (CA, DG, Sub) while investigating their involvement in encoding and retrieval of memories using fMRI data.
- The findings suggest that while the hippocampus's structure is well-defined, the specific contributions of its subregions to memory functions remain inadequately understood, highlighting the need for further research in this area.
