Reinstatement and transformation of memory traces for recognition
Episodic memory relies on the formation and retrieval of content-specific memory traces. In addition to their veridical reactivation, previous studies have indicated that traces may undergo substantial transformations. However, the exact time course and regional distribution of reinstatement and transformation during recognition memory have remained unclear. We applied representational similarity analysis to human intracranial electroencephalography to track the spatiotemporal dynamics underlying the reinstatement and transformation of memory traces.
