This study investigates the role of the anterior cingulate cortex in action monitoring during learning, finding that ACC neurons encode action state and content rather than outcomes.

The paper identifies a distinct neuronal subpopulation in the retrosplenial cortex that fires during slow-wave sleep Down states and is involved in memory consolidation.

This study investigates the role of hippocampal efferents to retrosplenial cortex and lateral septum in memory acquisition using optogenetic inhibition in mice.
