Mice integrate conspecific and contextual information in forming social episodic-like memories under spontaneous recognition task conditions (2024)
Journal Article
Ross, T. W., Poulter, S. L., Lever, C., & Easton, A. (2024). Mice integrate conspecific and contextual information in forming social episodic-like memories under spontaneous recognition task conditions. Scientific Reports, 14(1), Article 16159. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-66403-4

The ability to remember unique past events (episodic memory) may be an evolutionarily conserved function, with accumulating evidence of episodic-(like) memory processing in rodents. In humans, it likely contributes to successful complex social networ...

Rats use strategies to make object choices in spontaneous object recognition tasks (2022)
Journal Article
Ross, T., & Easton, A. (2022). Rats use strategies to make object choices in spontaneous object recognition tasks. Scientific Reports, 12, Article 16973. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-21537-1

Rodent spontaneous object recognition (SOR) paradigms are widely used to study the mechanisms of complex memory in many laboratories. Due to the absence of explicit reinforcement in these tasks, there is an underlying assumption that object explorato...

The Hippocampal Horizon: Constructing and Segmenting Experience for Episodic Memory (2021)
Journal Article
Ross, T., & Easton, A. (2022). The Hippocampal Horizon: Constructing and Segmenting Experience for Episodic Memory. Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 132, 181-196. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neubiorev.2021.11.038

How do we recollect specific events that have occurred during continuous ongoing experience? There is converging evidence from non-human animals that spatially modulated cellular activity of the hippocampal formation supports the construction of ongo...
