This study investigates how lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) afferents modulate piriform cortex (PCx) activity by reconfiguring excitatory and inhibitory circuits in response to olfactory and spatial contextual inputs.

This study shows that learning enhances odour discrimination in the piriform cortex by integrating non-olfactory contextual information into neuronal responses.

This study shows cholinergic modulation enhances mature granule cell responses in the dentate gyrus by reconfiguring inhibitory circuits, leading to long-term potentiation and memory formation.
