A new study has revealed that focal hippocampal lesions disrupt structural and functional connectivity even between distal brain regions potentially contributing to the amnesia experienced by these individuals. The lead researcher, Rik Henson, said “These individuals are rare and their involvement illustrates the value of collaborations between the MRC CBU and the Neuropsychology Department at Addenbrookes Hospital and Psychology Department at the University of Cambridge.”
