Effects of behavioral tasks on memory reconsolidation and trauma-related symptoms : a randomized clinical trial
… tasks (e.g., Tetris) may disrupt the reconsolidation of fear memories and may have clinical utility for the treatment of PTSD. The overarching objective of this dissertation was to investigate the effects of a visuospatial task on memory reconsolidation and trauma-related symptoms in …

Investigating Spatial Memory Reconsolidation in Rats: Memory Updating, Effects of Aging, and Hippocampal Network Activity
… that reactivation or retrieval of a consolidated memory opens up a window of time during which the memory can be strengthened, disrupted, or updated via a process of "reconsolidation". This dissertation is comprised of three experimental studies in rats aimed at investigating previously unexamined …

An assessment of reconsolidation blockade to disrupt memories relevant to psychiatric disorders
… the integration of new information into the memory trace. Blockade of the resultant process, reconsolidation, with NMDA receptor antagonists or protein synthesis inhibition can lead to a decrease in subsequent memory expression. This may offer a potential tool for the treatment of psychiatric …

Extinction of Threat Memory via Reconsolidation Interference: A Behavioral Intervention Meta-Analysis
… memories can be altered through a process called reconsolidation interference. Consolidated memories are dynamic: reminders of previous experiences prompt the reactivation of a previously-encoded memory; destabilization of the memory opens it to update. While a memory is updating, it is labile. If …

Optogenetic investigation of normal and pathological rhythms in the hippocampal formation
… slow-wave sleep, and thought to be important for memory reconsolidation. Using optogenetic light ramp stimuli in transgenic mice, I found that gradual depolarization of CA1 pyramidal cells (mimicking CA3 sharp-wave input) is sufficient to induce fast gamma and sharp-wave ripple-like high frequency …

EXAMINING THE INFLUENCE OF TIME AND REPETITION ON RECENT AND REMOTE AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMORY RETRIEVAL USING fMRI
… the prediction made by MTT that hippocampal memory traces expand and strengthen as a function of repeated memory retrievals. An fMRI paradigm was used to compare the effect of memory retrieval versus the mere passage of time on hippocampal activation. Participants retrieved remote …
