Understanding how sensory pathways transmit information under natural conditions remains
a major goal in neuroscience. The vestibular system plays a vital role in everyday life …

Elegant sensory structures in the inner ear have evolved to measure head motion. These
vestibular receptors consist of highly conserved semicircular canals and otolith organs …

Navigation first requires accurate perception of one's spatial orientation within the
environment, which consists of knowledge about location and directional heading. Cells …

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 …

The anterior thalamic nuclei (ATN), a central component of Papez'circuit, are generally
assumed to be key constituents of the neural circuits responsible for certain categories of …

Spatial navigation is a complex cognitive process based on multiple senses that are
integrated and processed by a wide network of brain areas. Previous studies have revealed …

Identifying the neural mechanisms underlying spatial orientation and navigation has long
posed a challenge for researchers. Multiple approaches incorporating a variety of …

Brain-inspired computer vision aims to learn from biological systems to develop advanced
image processing techniques. However, its progress so far is not impressing. We recognize …

A major tool in understanding how the brain processes information is the analysis of
neuronal output at each hierarchical level along the pathway of signal propagation. Theta …

Navigation is usually thought of relative to landmarks, but neural signals representing space
also use information generated by an animal's movements. These signals include grid cells …
