<p>Brodmann area 35 is perirhinal area 35. It is a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined hippocampal region of the cerebral cortex. In the human it is located along the rhinal sulcus. Cytoarchitectually it is bounded medially by the entorhinal area 28 and laterally by the ectorhinal area 36.</p><p>The hippocampus is responsible for synthesizing short term into long term memory, episodic memory, autonomic processes, response inhibition, and spatial cognition. Hippocampus damage can lead to anxiety disorders and an inability to suppress responses that have been conditioned. It also encodes emotional responses from the amygdala. Damage to the hippocampus will result in the inability to form new memories. This is also an area that is responsible for conflict detection and approach-avoidance behaviors, linking it to some anxiety conditions.</p><p>There are two hippocampi—one for each hemisphere. Each has a different role in memory. The RH hippocampus records memory in spatial and temporal fields and the LH holds verbal memory. The RH hippocampus is central to implicit, non verbal memory—in a sense, unremembered memory. When RH memory begins to return, it is often in felt experiences and in pictures and in spatial contexts. The LH hippocampus is involved in declarative or explicit memory, also called semantic memory (i.e. related to words), and gives us the ability to used words to communicate emotional states. Sustained stress and high levels of circulating cortisol and other stress hormones (i.e. glucocorticoids) lead to a smaller hippocampus, structurally, and as a result, to impaired memory. “ A likely explanation is that the shrinkage in the hippocampus is due to the effects of heightened cortisol, which is known to be toxic to the hippocampus” (van der Kolk, 2007, p. 233).</p><p>The hippocampus is responsible for synthesizing short term into long term memory, episodic memory, autonomic processes, response inhibition, and spatial cognition.
