Researchers used AI and deep learning to find a link between brain structure and navigation skills but found no measurable ...

​​There's a good chance you can't remember the last time you unfolded a paper map or committed a route to memory before leaving the house. For most people, navigation has been outsourced entirely to a ...

Grid cells are a class of specialized neurons in a brain region called the entorhinal cortex, which is known to support spatial navigation and some memory processes. Past neuroscience studies have ...

A new study published in Nature suggests that the neural foundations of spatial navigation—the brain's internal "GPS"—may have emerged far earlier in evolution than previously believed. The research, ...

In a new study, Northwestern University neurobiologists found the brain's internal GPS changes each time we navigate a familiar, static environment. This means that if someone walks the same path ...
