Concept information
Preferred term
engram cell
Definition
- Engram cells are "[...] neurons that are activated during an experience, that have undergone enduring physical or chemical changes and that can subsequently be selectively reactivated to produce the retrieval of that experience or inhibited to prevent its retrieval." (Tonegawa et al., 2018, p. 485).
