DOI: 10.1002/cad.20478
Abstract: Inuit communities in Northern Quebec (Canada) are exposed to environmental contaminants, particularly to mercury, lead and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Previous studies reported adverse associations between these neurotoxicants and memory performance. Here we aimed to determine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hipo.23313
Abstract: Spatial navigation is a crucial everyday skill, which when impaired leads to a significant decrease in quality of life. In humans, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has provided extensive insights into the neural underpinnings of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hipo.23497
Abstract: The hippocampus is a critical component of a mammalian spatial navigation system, with the firing sequences of hippocampal place cells during sleep or immobility constituting a “replay” of an animal's past trajectories. A novel spatial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00415-020-10079-z
Abstract: Background Cognitive deficits are common in early multiple sclerosis (MS), however, spatial navigation changes and their associations with brain pathology remain poorly understood. Objective To characterize the profile of spatial navigation changes in two main… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2020.101020
Abstract: Aging effects have often been reported for spatial navigation performance. Moreover, navigation performance is thought to be an early marker of pathological aging. Yet, the cognitive complexity of navigation and large individual variation in healthy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cities.2017.12.006
Abstract: Abstract This study aimed to increase understanding of sense of place by investigating how spatial navigation and place imageability may associate with it in urban neighborhoods. Questionnaires, protocol analysis, and cognitive sketch maps were used… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2021.107774
Abstract: Sensory cues enable navigation through space, as they inform us about movement properties, such as the amount of travelled distance and the heading direction. In this study, we focused on the ability to spatially update… read more here.

The cognitive map in humans: spatial navigation and beyond
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Nature Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.1038/nn.4656
Abstract: The 'cognitive map' hypothesis proposes that brain builds a unified representation of the spatial environment to support memory and guide future action. Forty years of electrophysiological research in rodents suggest that cognitive maps are neurally… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhac010
Abstract: Spatial navigation is essential for everyday life and relies on complex network-level interactions. Recent evidence suggests that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can influence the activity of large-scale functional brain networks. We characterized brain-wide changes… read more here.
