had monkeys with different levels of brain damage perform a memory task. Hippocampus damage alone did not cause the biggest deficit, going against traditional view.

Nemanic et al. (2004)
had animals try and discriminate between complex scenes (as opposed to single objects). Even hippocampus damage alone caused impairment here.

London taxi drivers have a larger posterior hippocampus, correlated with experience.

hippocampus activity in rats during learning - place cells fire at their peak rate when the animal is in a specific location.

Morris et al. (1982)
the water maze task - rats can find a hidden platform in a pool of water, but when hippocampus is lesioned rats do not learn to do any better.

Morris et al. (1986)
the water maze task again but rats are given an NMDAr antagonist to block LTP, and animal does very poorly on task

Blakemore & Cooper (1970)
kittens brought up in an environment which consisted of only horizontal/vertical lines - whichever type they were not exposed to, they developed no cells within V1 that fire in response to them.

when the rubber hand is threatened, participants feel anxiety similar to if it was their own hand.
