This research aims to investigate the neuronal responses in the hippocampus during classical conditioning.
Recorded neuronal activity in the dorsal hippocampus of rabbits during classical conditioning.
Utilized tone as the conditioned stimulus and corneal air puff as the unconditioned stimulus.
Compared responses in animals trained with paired stimuli to control animals with unpaired stimuli.
Early in training, hippocampal neurons create a temporal model of the behavioral response.
This hippocampal response is absent in control animals given unpaired stimuli.
