Thirteen dogs were trained to perform spatial delayed responses to auditory cues in a three-choice Nencki testing apparatus with a delay of 0 s and then 10 s with a criterion of 90% correct responses in 90 consecutive trials. Then six dogs received bilateral surgical removal of the hippocampus via t

The authors attempted to replicate the study of Castro, Silbert, McNaughton, and Barnes (1989) in which it was concluded that bilateral saturation of hippocampal synaptic enhancement produced a deficit in acquisition of a spatial navigation problem in the Morris swim task. The original protocol was
## Abstract The spatially localized firing of hippocampal place cells is thought to underlie the navigational function of the hippocampus. Performance on a spatial task learned using a particular place cell map should therefore deteriorate if the map is disrupted. To test this prediction, we traine
