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 …

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 …

The retrosplenial cortex is reciprocally connected with multiple structures implicated in
spatial cognition, and damage to the region itself produces numerous spatial impairments …

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 …

Spatial navigation requires landmark coding from two perspectives, relying on viewpoint-
invariant and self-referenced representations. The brain encodes information within each …

Decision-making requires flexibility to rapidly switch one's actions in response to sensory
stimuli depending on information stored in memory. We identified cortical areas and neural …

For navigation, animals use a robust internal compass. Compass navigation is crucial for
long-distance migrating animals like monarch butterflies, which use the sun to navigate over …

Spatial learning, including encoding and retrieval of spatial memories as well as holding
spatial information in working memory generally serving navigation under a broad range of …

The retrosplenial cortex (RC) is a brain structure crucial for spatial navigation and memory. It
contains neurons such as head direction cells, border cells, as well as other cells supporting …

The mediodorsal thalamus (MD) and anterior thalamic nuclei (ATN) are two adjacent brain
nodes that support our ability to make decisions, learn, update information, form and retrieve …
