Area‐restricted search is the capacity to change search effort adaptively in response to
resource encounters or expectations, from directional exploration (global, extensive search) …

Animals can navigate vast distances and often display behaviours or activities that indicate a
detailed, internal spatial representation of their surrounding environment or a 'cognitive …

To navigate, animals need to represent not only their own position and orientation, but also
the location of their goal. Neural representations of an animal's own position and orientation …

Many animals, on air, water, or land, navigate in three-dimensional (3D) environments, yet it
remains unclear how brain circuits encode the animal's 3D position. We recorded single …

Spatial orientation and navigation rely on the acquisition of several types of sensory
information. This information is then transformed into a neural code for space in the …

Seven decades of research on the “cognitive map,” the allocentric representation of space,
have yielded key neurobiological insights, yet field evidence from free-ranging wild animals …

Neural activity in the hippocampus is known to reflect how animals move through an
environment,. Although navigational behaviour may show considerable stability,,–, the …

Accurate tracking and analysis of animal behavior is crucial for modern systems
neuroscience. However, following freely moving animals in naturalistic, three-dimensional …

Goal-directed navigation is thought to rely on the activity of head-direction cells, but how this
activity guides moment-to-moment actions remains poorly understood. Here we characterize …

How animals navigate over large-scale environments remains a riddle. Specifically, it is
debated whether animals have cognitive maps. The hallmark of map-based navigation is the …
