Although long-term memory consolidation is supported by sleep, it is unclear how it differs
from that during wakefulness. Our review, focusing on recent advances in the field, identifies …

BACKGROUND Ever since Edward Tolman's proposal that comprehensive cognitive maps
underlie spatial navigation and, more generally, psychological functions, the question of …

Mapping behavioural actions to neural activity is a fundamental goal of neuroscience. As our
ability to record large neural and behavioural data increases, there is growing interest in …

The dentate gyrus (DG) gates neocortical information flow to the hippocampus. Intriguingly,
the DG also produces adult-born dentate granule cells (abDGCs) throughout the lifespan …

The consolidation of spatial memory depends on the reactivation ('replay') of hippocampal
place cells that were active during recent behaviour. Such reactivation is observed during …

Animals associate cues with outcomes and update these associations as new information is
presented. This requires the hippocampus, yet how hippocampal neurons track changes in …

This article describes a process theory based on active inference and belief propagation.
Starting from the premise that all neuronal processing (and action selection) can be …

Various cognitive functions have long been known to require the hippocampus. Recently,
progress has been made in identifying the hippocampal neural activity patterns that …

Knowledge abstracted from previous experiences can be transferred to aid new learning.
Here, we asked whether such abstract knowledge immediately guides the replay of new …

It is assumed that synaptic strengthening and weakening balance throughout learning to
avoid runaway potentiation and memory interference. However, energetic and informational …
