TL;DR: Perirhinal input, predominantly to sensory cortical layer 1, controls hippocampal-dependent associative learning in mice, and the influence of the hippocampus on memory formation in the neocortex occurs at the interface between these two structures, suggesting that important events relating to memory formation occur in neocortical L1.

TL;DR: It is shown that learning is controlled by specific medial-temporal input to neocortical layer 1 that elevates dendritic calcium and promotes burst firing in L1, and that burst but not regular firing retrieved previously learned behavior.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that nanostimulation can also be used to selectively inhibit sensory responses in identifiable neurons, and exact AP timing has not been achieved, but frequency and AP number can be parametrically controlled.
