The conversion of sho-term memory to long-term memory occurs in
Hippocampus is the primary structure within the temporal lobe involved in conversion of sho-term memory to longterm memory. Hippocampal cognitive map is inappropriately reactivated during a deja vu experience. Hippocampus doesnot store memory but only conves sho-term to long-term memory. Hence, hippocampal lesion cause only anterograde amnesia. Ref: Ganong's Review of Medical Physiology 25th edition Pgno: 285-288
