Mapping the functional and structural connectivity of the scene network

DM Watson, TJ Andrews - Human Brain Mapping, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
The recognition and perception of places has been linked to a network of scene‐selective
regions in the human brain. While previous studies have focussed on functional connectivity …

Theta and alpha oscillations in human hippocampus and medial parietal cortex support the formation of location‐based representations

A Satish, VG Keller, S Raza, S Fitzpatrick… - …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
