Reijmers, Perkins, Matsuo and Mayford, Science 317(5842), 2007, 1230-1233. Transgenic mice allowed long-lasting genetic tagging of recently active neurons; basolateral amygdala neurons active in Pavlovian fear conditioning were reactivated at retrieval, and the number reactivated correlated positively with the strength of the behavioural fear response; described as a stable neural correlate of associative memory.
