Direct electrical stimulation of the human amygdala enhances recognition memory for objects but not scenes

2025-06-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Research from neuroscience studies using invasive neuroanatomy-inspired direct manipulations suggests the basolateral amygdala (BLA) mediates a generalized modulation of many different types of memory. In contrast, noninvasive, psychology-inspired indirect correlations suggest that specificity exists in how the BLA prioritizes experiences in memory. We used direct electrical stimulation of the BL...
