It is commonly thought that the dorsal hippocampus is implicated in memory and spatial navigation and the ventral hippocampus in anxiety-related behaviours. On the basis of gene expression, anatomical and electrophysiology studies, Strange and colleagues propose a new model of hippocampal functional anatomy, in which functional long-axis gradients are superimposed on discrete functional domains.
