Functional Neuroanatomy of the Cortico-Parahippocampal-Hippocampal Memory System.

Memory is a property of distributed networks in the mammalian cortex. While the permanent storage of episodic memories is likely to take place at distributed locations in the neocortex, fast acquisition of such memories depends critically on the (para)hip pocampal system. This dependence reflects...
