Temporal schematic of the key parts of the experiment

Caption

Stimulation of a brain region called the anterior thalamus could enhance lost memories, opening new avenues for memory restoration treatments after brain injury. The image depicts the key experimental procedures used in the paper. ATN = anterior thalamic nuclei; MTT = mammillothalamic tract. LV-CaMKII-ChR2-mCherry = channelrhodopsin vector, Zif268 = neuronal activity marker.
