A hippocampal circuit linking dorsal CA2 to ventral CA1 critical for social memory dynamics
Although the CA2 region of the hippocampus has been implicated in social memory, its precise role has been unclear. Here, the authors show that the dorsal subregion of CA2 is required for the encoding, consolidation and recall of social memory through a circuit linking it to ventral CA1.
