We previously have demonstrated that brief electrical stimulation to the basolateral amygdala (BLA) reliably enhances declarative memory in humans after a one-day delay without eliciting an emotional response. In the current study 31 drug-resistant epilepsy patients undergoing stereo EEG surgery with depth electrode contacts implanted in various MLT regions. During continuous intracranial EEG recording, each participant was presented with a series of images of neutral objects. Across patients, we delivered a brief stimulation to the BLA (8 trains of 50-Hz pulses at 0.5 mA) before, during, or a

Studying the neural mechanisms of encoding new memories is crucial for understanding and restoring cognitive function. In this study, we utilized functional connectivity metrics to identify hubs responsible for successful or unsuccessful encoding in a free recall task among eleven epileptic patients undergoing stereo EEG presurgical evaluation. Firstly, several types of functional connectivity metrics were calculated across standard EEG bands, ripples, and fast ripples for each patient, feature, encoded word and time window across all possible pairs of contacts. Whole-brain connectivity maps w
