Researchers have identified how the brain stores and recalls visual object memory, crucial for tasks like navigation and problem-solving. By studying macaques, they discovered that the anterior ventral temporal cortex (aVTC) and the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) work together in this process, with OFC regulating memory-related activities in aVTC neurons. The findings could pave the way for new treatments for memory deficits in dementia.
