Spatial navigation and memory are often seen as heavily intertwined at the cognitive and
neural levels of analysis. We review models that hypothesize a central role for the medial …

Increasing evidence suggests that the human hippocampus contributes to a range of
different behaviors, including episodic memory, language, short‐term memory, and …

Navigation is an inherently dynamic and multimodal process, making isolation of the unique
cognitive components underlying it challenging. The assumptions of much of the literature …

The hippocampus (HC) and associated neural structures are hypothesized to contribute to
individual differences in human spatial navigation. However, functional imaging studies and …

There is considerable research on the neurobiological mechanisms within the hippocampal
system that support spatial navigation. In this article I review the literature on navigational …

The most important cognitive domains where hippocampal formation is crucially involved
are navigation and memory. Some evidence suggests that different hippocampal subregions …

The discovery of neuronal systems dedicated to computing spatial information, composed of
functionally distinct cell types such as place and grid cells, combined with an extensive body …

Background Despite decades of research on spatial memory, we know surprisingly little
about how the brain guides navigation to goals. While some models argue that vectors are …

Age-related decline in spatial navigation is well-known and the extant literature emphasizes
the important contributions of a hippocampus-dependent spatial navigation system in …

Decades of research have established the importance of the hippocampus for episodic and
spatial memory. In spatial navigation tasks, the role of the hippocampus has been classically …
