The Engram’s Dark Horse: How Interneurons Regulate State-Dependent Memory Processing and Plasticity

Brain states such as arousal and sleep play critical roles in memory encoding, storage, and recall. Recent studies have highlighted the role of engram neurons–populations of neurons activated during learning–in subsequent memory consolidation and recall. These engram populations are generally assume...
