Reuniens-hippocampus synchronization is required for successful navigation and decision making

Tristan Baumann, Oxana Eschenko · FENS Forum 2024

The reciprocal connectivity of the nucleus reuniens (RE) of the ventral midline thalamus with the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and hippocampus (HC) is suggestive of the RE being a critical node within a large-scale brain network underlying spatial cognition. The RE activity has been implicated in navigation, decision making, and spatial memory consolidation. We have previously shown that the RE activity is critical for the retrieval of spatial memory. Yet, the network mechanisms of the RE contribution to the extended prefrontal-thalamo-hippocampal circuit remain to be explored. It has been suggeste
