“…Similarly, the c-Fos+ neuronal ensemble that in rodents is established during a memory's acquisition overlaps with the one established during its recall, with the extent of this overlap being associated with retrieval success (9,10,14,16,(23)(24)(25)(26). Furthermore, the reactivation of the c-Fos+ ensemble established at acquisition is both necessary for memory retrieval in physiological conditions, and sufficient to induce artificial recollection of a specific memory at later times (11,13,14,24,27). Together, these data have supported a reactivation-centred model, according to which memory encoding leads to the establishment of a distributed network of memory ensembles in multiple cortical and subcortical structures, with hippocampal ensembles serving as an index for the reactivation of this memory network during recall (8,10,12,17,(28)(29)(30).…”
