It, in turn, sends signals to many different brain regions including; The temporal lobe, amygdala, the lateral hypothalamus, the hippocampal formation, the cingulate cortex, and certain other regions of the prefrontal cortex.

As a consequence of these publications, the idea that the hippocampal formation is entirely dedicated to olfaction began to recede . ( Today there is little support for the idea that the hippocampal formation is directly involved in emotion .)

EEG evidence from 1938 to the present, stimulation evidence from the 1950s, and modern imaging techniques together suggest a role for some part of the hippocampal formation ( in concert with the anterior cingulate cortex ) in the control of attention.

Of primary interest in the fMRI images was blood volume in the dentate gyrus ( DG ), a region in the hippocampal formation whose function declines with human aging and is therefore considered to be a possible crux of age-related memory decline.

This is because patients with damage to the temporal lobes or underlying structures in the limbic system may lose the ability to form new memories, especially if the damage is within the hippocampal formation, while retaining access to at least some memories from before the injury.

Reason : Boundary cell is an alternate and arguably more general name for a " boundary vector cell " or " border cell " terms that have been used to describe neurons in the hippocampal formation that fire along one or more edge of an environment, i . e ., where the boundary is at a specific distance and direction from the animal.
