This study shows that adult neurogenesis in mice enhances spatial information encoding in the hippocampus during novel context exposure.

This study shows that aged mice have impaired spatial representations in the hippocampal dentate gyrus for novel environments, but these improve with repeated exposure, while hyperexcitability does not disrupt familiar environments.

The paper shows that dendritic plasticity in the retrosplenial cortex links memories by allocating spine clusters to the same dendritic segments for temporally close memories.
