Cholinergic input to the hippocampus is not required for a model of episodic memory in the rat, even with multiple consecutive events (2017)
Journal Article
Seel, S., Eacott, M., Langston, R., & Easton, A. (2018). Cholinergic input to the hippocampus is not required for a model of episodic memory in the rat, even with multiple consecutive events. Behavioural Brain Research, 354, 48-54. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2017.06.001

Previous work has shown that depletion of the cholinergic input to the hippocampus produces no impairment in an episodic (what-where-which) memory task in rats. However, in contrast a where-which task was significantly impaired. Models of acetylcholi...

Incidental context information increases recollection (2017)
Journal Article
Ameen-Ali, K., Norman, L., Eacott, M., & Easton, A. (2017). Incidental context information increases recollection. Learning & Memory, 24(3), 136-139. https://doi.org/10.1101/lm.042622.116

The current study describes a receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) task for human participants based on the spontaneous recognition memory paradigms typically used with rodents. Recollection was significantly higher when an object was in the same... Read More about Incidental context information increases recollection.
