How to characterize the function of a brain region
Many brain regions have been defined, but a comprehensive formalization of each region's
function in relation to human behavior is still lacking. Current knowledge comes from various …

Allocentric and egocentric spatial representations coexist in rodent medial entorhinal cortex
Successful navigation relies on reciprocal transformations between spatial representations
in world-centered (allocentric) and self-centered (egocentric) frames of reference. The …

Impaired hippocampal-cortical interactions during sleep in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease
Spatial learning is impaired in humans with preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD). We
reported similar impairments in 3xTg-AD mice learning a spatial reorientation task. Memory …

Scalp recorded theta activity is modulated by reward, direction, and speed during virtual navigation in freely moving humans
Abstract Theta oscillations (~ 4–12 Hz) are dynamically modulated by speed and direction in
freely moving animals. However, due to the paucity of electrophysiological recordings of …
