Functional neurogenesis induced by operant but not by classical conditioning

Some studies on olfactory conditioning in rodents have shown that long term memory of the conditioned odor depends on neurogenesis, while other studies did not detect such a dependence on neurogenesis. In their paper entitled „Involvement of Newborn Neurons in Olfactory Associative Learning? The Operant or Non-operant Component of the Task Makes All the Difference“, […]
