Components

(generated)

Component items:

• Entorhinal Cortex (FMM.NC.PH.ET): Memory consolidation
  • Lateral Entorhinal Cortex: Memory consolidation, emotioncal aspects
  • Medial Entorhinal Cortex: Memory consolidation, basic, view inpedepdent position
• Perirhinal Cortex: Associate different visual views of objects and their various nonvisual attributes
• Piriform Cortex: Perception of smells, primary olfactory cortex
• Prepyriform Cortex: Perception of smells, relay via MD to PFC
