The mammalian brain is known to produce mental representations of the spatial environment, known as cognitive maps, that help humans and animals navigate their surroundings. A subpopulation of neurons ...

The multi-level testing framework is designed across spatial relations, spatial scenes, and prompt engineering strategies, with standardized scripts ensuring normalization. Recently, the Journal of ...

Neural networks have emerged as powerful tools for modelling the brain’s capacity to form internal representations of space and relational knowledge, often termed cognitive maps. In biological systems ...

Every time we move through a familiar environment, the hippocampus consults an internal map, a detailed spatial representation built up through repeated experience. But what happens when something ...

Navigating space effectively is crucial for survival. Our species evolved a sophisticated spatial cognitive system for this purpose. In humans, systems of language and space emerged in tandem.

A wild chickadee study shows monogamous females cheat with males that have superior spatial memory to secure survival genes for chicks.

The Individual Brain Charting (IBC) project has released its fifth and largest update of high-resolution fMRI data, adding a new set of cognitive tasks to one of the most detailed brain-mapping ...
