Abstract

Tallman and colleagues (this issue) report fMRI findings in support of the classic view of memory consolidation over its main challenger, the multiple trace theory. The present commentary highlights some of the obstacles facing any fMRI study of memory consolidation and notes which challenges were tackled by Tallman and colleagues and which challenges might be insurmountable.

Keywords: cell assembly; fMRI; hippocampus; memory.
