Unimpaired spatial working memory following mammillothalamic tract damage in rats: Implications for the neuroanatomy of memory
In humans, damage to the mammillothalamic tract (MTT) as a result of localised strokes, tumours or alcohol abuse has consistently been implicated in the severe anterograde amnesia evident in these patients. This small neural pathway, which connects the mammillary bodies (MB) to the anterior thalamic...
