The human hippocampus retroactively binds experiences across time

The paper shows that hippocampal high-frequency activity predicts later memory when a second event arrives, reinstate preceding stimuli, and is coupled to successful encoding.

It's All In The Journey: Putative Strategies Extracted from Navigation Paths Predict Spatial Memory and Hippocampal Recruitment

The paper quantifies navigation strategies in virtual tasks and links them to hippocampal activity in different groups, showing strategy variability and group-specific neural recruitment.

Theta-phase locking of single neurons during human spatial memory

This study investigates theta-phase locking of single neurons during human spatial memory tasks and finds it is prevalent and influenced by theta power and aperiodic activity.

Behavioral investigation of allocentric and egocentric cognitive maps in human spatial memory

This study investigates how humans use allocentric and egocentric cognitive maps for spatial memory through a behavioral task involving virtual environments and coordinate systems.

A preserved neural code for temporal order between memory formation and recall in the human medial temporal lobe

The paper investigates how human medial temporal lobe neurons represent temporal order during memory formation and recall, finding preserved neural codes for temporal positions in both phases.

Maintenance and transformation of representational formats during working memory prioritization

The paper investigates how working memory prioritization affects representational formats in visual and prefrontal cortex using intracranial EEG and deep neural networks.

Quantitative modeling of the emergence of macroscopic grid-like representations

This study uses simulations to investigate how population-level hexadirectional modulation in fMRI data may arise from grid cell activity, testing three hypotheses about grid cell properties.

Neurons in the human entorhinal cortex map abstract emotion space

The paper identifies grid-like neuronal activity in the human entorhinal cortex that maps emotional valence and arousal in a two-dimensional space during an emotional memory task.

Ripple-locked coactivity of stimulus-specific neurons supports human associative memory

The paper identifies stimulus-specific neurons that show ripple-locked coactivity during associative memory encoding and retrieval in humans.

A gradient of electrophysiological novelty responses along the human hippocampal long axis.

The paper shows a gradient of electrophysiological novelty responses along the human hippocampal long axis, with theta frequency oscillatory power increasing from anterior to posterior.

A neural code for egocentric spatial maps in the human medial temporal lobe

The paper identifies 'anchor cells' in the human medial temporal lobe that encode egocentric spatial maps during virtual navigation.

Unmasking selective path integration deficits in Alzheimer's disease risk carriers

The paper identifies selective path integration deficits in Alzheimer's disease risk carriers using virtual navigation tasks and fMRI, linking them to grid cell dysfunction in the entorhinal cortex.

A learned map for places and concepts in the human MTL

The paper studies how the human medial temporal lobe (MTL) represents spatial and semantic information through micro-wire recordings, showing that learned representations support navigation and prediction.
