Rethinking retrosplenial cortex: perspectives and predictions

AS Alexander, R Place, MJ Starrett, ER Chrastil… - Neuron, 2023 - cell.com
The last decade has produced exciting new ideas about retrosplenial cortex (RSC) and its
role in integrating diverse inputs. Here, we review the diversity in forms of spatial and …

Egocentric boundary vector tuning of the retrosplenial cortex

AS Alexander, LC Carstensen, JR Hinman… - Science …, 2020 - science.org
The retrosplenial cortex is reciprocally connected with multiple structures implicated in

[HTML][HTML] Multisensory coding of angular head velocity in the retrosplenial cortex

S Keshavarzi, EF Bracey, RA Faville, D Campagner… - Neuron, 2022 - cell.com
To successfully navigate the environment, animals depend on their ability to continuously
track their heading direction and speed. Neurons that encode angular head velocity (AHV) …

Locomotion-dependent remapping of distributed cortical networks

KB Clancy, I Orsolic, TD Mrsic-Flogel - Nature neuroscience, 2019 - nature.com
The interactions between neocortical areas are fluid and state-dependent, but how
individual neurons couple to cortex-wide network dynamics remains poorly understood. We …

[HTML][HTML] Shared and specialized coding across posterior cortical areas for dynamic navigation decisions

SY Tseng, SN Chettih, C Arlt, R Barroso-Luque… - Neuron, 2022 - cell.com
Animals adaptively integrate sensation, planning, and action to navigate toward goal
locations in ever-changing environments, but the functional organization of cortex …

[HTML][HTML] The neurocognitive basis of spatial reorientation

JB Julian, AT Keinath, SA Marchette, RA Epstein - Current Biology, 2018 - cell.com
The ability to recover one's bearings when lost is a skill that is fundamental for spatial
navigation. We review the cognitive and neural mechanisms that underlie this ability, with …

[HTML][HTML] Spatially periodic activation patterns of retrosplenial cortex encode route sub-spaces and distance traveled

AS Alexander, DA Nitz - Current Biology, 2017 - cell.com
Traversal of a complicated route is often facilitated by considering it as a set of related sub-
spaces. Such compartmentalization processes could occur within retrosplenial cortex, a …
