Abstract representations emerge in human hippocampal neurons during inference
Humans have the remarkable cognitive capacity to rapidly adapt to changing environments.
Central to this capacity is the ability to form high-level, abstract representations that take …

Neuronal vector coding in spatial cognition
A Bicanski, N Burgess - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2020 - nature.com
Several types of neurons involved in spatial navigation and memory encode the distance
and direction (that is, the vector) between an agent and items in its environment. Such …

Phase precession in the human hippocampus and entorhinal cortex
Knowing where we are, where we have been, and where we are going is critical to many
behaviors, including navigation and memory. One potential neuronal mechanism underlying …

Spatial modulation of hippocampal activity in freely moving macaques
The hippocampal formation is linked to spatial navigation, but there is little corroboration
from freely moving primates with concurrent monitoring of head and gaze stances. We …

Memory-related processing is the primary driver of human hippocampal theta oscillations
Decades of work in rodents suggest that movement is a powerful driver of hippocampal low-
frequency" theta" oscillations. Puzzlingly, such movement-related theta increases in …

Brain stimulation competes with ongoing oscillations for control of spike timing in the primate brain
Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a popular method for modulating brain
activity noninvasively. In particular, tACS is often used as a targeted intervention that …
