In this study, the authors show that optogenetic photostimulation of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the ventral tegmental area during exploration can enhance subsequent sharp wave/ripple-mediated reactivation of spatial memory. These results suggest that midbrain DA neurons are key mediators of hippocampal-dependent memory persistence.
