Abstract

What brain regions are involved in the detection of novelty? This question has been the subject of several recent studies employing a variety of techniques ranging from functional neuroimaging to lesions studies, and including event-related potentials and electrophysiological recordings. An interest in the putative role of novelty in memory encoding motivated Parker, Wilding and Akerman to investigate the neural substrates of novelty detection in non-human primates1xThe von Restorff effect in visual object recognition memory in humans and monkeys: the role of frontal/perirhinal interaction.
