Extensive computational modeling has focused on the hippocampal formation and associated cortical structures. This overview describes some of the factors that have motivated the strong focus on these structures, including major experimental findings and their impact on computational models. This overview provides a framework for describing the topics addressed by individual articles in this special issue of the journal Hippocampus.
