The telencephalic ventral medial pallium ( primordium hippocampi " ), however, is involved in loops that either modify prey-selection due to associative learning or specify prey-selection due to non-associative learning, respectively.

When normal subjects and schizophrenic subjects were both asked to generate an auditory image, schizophrenic patients were shown to have a much weaker activation of the posterior cerebral cortex, hippocampi, bilateral lenticular nuclei, right thalamus, middle and superior cortex, and left nucleus accumbens.

It was thought that without the hippocampus new memories were unable to be stored into long-term memory and that there would be a very short attention span, as first gleamed from patient Henry Molaison after what was thought to be the full removal of both his hippocampi.

Traditional conceptions also assume that the self is a collection of episodic memories, since they are memories of the actions that sculpt our hippocampi ( the part of the brain responsible for memories ), patients were able to recollect their knowledge of personality even in the absence of episodic memories.

Pioneering work by Paul Broca ( 1878 ), James Papez ( 1937 ), and Paul D . MacLean ( 1952 ) suggested that emotion is related to a group of structures in the center of the brain called the limbic system, which includes the hypothalamus, cingulate cortex, hippocampi, and other structures.

Poseidon's horses, which were included in the elaborate sculptural program of gilt-bronze and ivory, added by a Roman client to the temple of Poseidon at Corinth, are likely to have been hippocampi; the Romanised Greek Pausanias described the rich ensemble in the later 2nd century AD ( " Geography of Greece " ii . 1.7-. 8 ):

Although it had historical precursors, this idea derived its main impetus from a famous report by William Beecher Scoville and Brenda Milner describing the results of surgical destruction of the hippocampi ( in an attempt to relieve epileptic seizures ), in Henry Molaison, known until his death in 2008 as " Patient H . M . " The unexpected outcome of the surgery was severe synaptic connections in the hippocampus.

Studies tend to indicate small to moderate correlations ( averaging around 0.3 to 0.4 ) between IQ . The most consistent associations are observed within the frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes, the hippocampi, and the cerebellum, but these only account for a relatively small amount of variance in IQ, which itself has only a partial relationship to general intelligence and real-world performance.
