Predicting Individual Differences on Two Episodic Memory Measures Using Resting-State Functional Connectivity Data
… provided confirmatory evidence regarding the Medial Temporal Lobes' involvement in episodic memory. Overall, we successfully extended Rosenberg et al. methodology to episodic memory and gain insights about this construct by doing so.

Markers of Prognosis in Neurodegenerative Dementia
… profile characterized by symptoms from the medial temporal lobes. II. Patients with DLB had shorter length-of-survival compared to patients with AD, from the time of diagnosis, from the time of MMSE 20±1 and from the time of MMSE 17±1. III. Patients with persistent orthostatic hypotension …

Beyond Episodic Memory: Medial Temporal Lobe Contributions to Problem-solving and Semantic Fluency Tasks
… of episodic memory processes supported by the medial temporal lobes (MTL) to two goal-oriented non-episodic tasks, problem solving and semantic retrieval (verbal fluency). The reported experiments provide evidence for the hypothesis that MTL-based episodic processes are robustly involved in …

Event Typicality and Memory: Investigating How Prior Knowledge and Novelty Modulate Memory for Complex Events
… - when typicality is correlated with greater medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and parietal activation, while novelty is correlated with greater activation in the medial temporal lobes (MTLs) and posterior sensory cortices. During retrieval, however, such differences based on typicality are …

Cognitive neuroscience methodologies provide insight into medial temporal lobe contributions to perception, language, and creativity
The functional contribution of medial temporal lobe has been studied in the human brain for over half a century. Insight into the nature of this extraordinary structure was discovered when epileptic patient H.M. had an experimental operation to surgically resect his bilateral medial temporal lobes. …

The role of the amygdala in dreaming
… condition that can lead to calcifications in the medial temporal lobes. This study analysed 26 dream reports collected from eight adult UWD patients with fully calcified basolateral amygdalae bilaterally, and compared them to 58 dream reports collected from 17 matched controls. Dream affect and …

The effects of hippocampal amnesia on retrieval orientation and novelty processing
The medial temporal lobes (MTLs), and in particular the hippocampus, have been the focus of a large body of research since the discovery of a memory deficit in patient H.M. following surgical removal of those brain regions. This research has pointed to the role of the hippocampus in supporting a …
