The retrosplenial cortex: A memory gateway between the cortical default mode network and the medial temporal lobe

The default mode network (DMN) involves interacting cortical areas, including the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and the retrosplenial cortex (RSC), and subcortical areas, including the medial temporal lobe (MTL). The degree of functional connectivity (FC) within the DMN, particularly between MTL and medial‐parietal subsystems, relates to episodic memory (EM) processes. However, past resting‐state studies investigating the link between...
