Here the authors model interactions between episodic and semantic memory as ‘retrieval-augmented generation’, explaining consolidation of structure from sequential experience, the reconstruction and d...

The brain’s neural compass seems 2D, detecting only left and right head-turns. However, if the head is tilted in 3D, its rotation around the vertical axis also covertly changes its horizontal facing ...

Abstract. We tested whether enhanced allocentric spatial memory of a distressing scene can attenuate intrusive memories. Using virtual reality (VR), we dev

Standard accounts of memory consolidation emphasise the stabilisation of stored representations, but struggle to explain representational drift, semanticisation, or the necessity of offline replay. He...

Nicholas and Mattar found that people use episodic memory to make decisions when it is unclear what will be needed in the future. These findings reveal how the rich representational capacity of episod...

UCL is consistently ranked as one of the top ten universities in the world (QS World University Rankings 2010-2022) and is No.2 in the UK for research power (Research Excellence Framework 2021).

Our research provides strong evidence against the concerning claims made recently by US president Donald Trump.

Prediction errors drive learning by signaling mismatches between expectations and reality, but the neural systems supporting these computations rem...

Bukwich and Campbell et al. show that mice integrate elapsed time and reward intake, scaled by a latent patience variable, to decide when to leave virtual “patches.” Frontal cortex ramping activity ma...

Grid and place cells typically fire at progressively earlier phases within each cycle of the theta rhythm as rodents run across their firing fields, a phenomenon known as theta phase precession. Here...

A new model of how we plan pathways through the world shows that populations of neurons that code our current position, including entorhinal grid cells and head direction cells, could interact to aid ...

Ji, Chu et al. present a network model of direction and grid cells, which generates an internal direction signal comprised of alternating left-right sweeps of encoded location and direction, based on ...

Several studies for a CDC journal were purged without explanation before a judge’s order restored them. That's unacceptable.

A major challenge in neuroscience is reconciling idealized theoretical models with complex, heterogeneous experimental data. We address this challenge through the lens of continuous-attractor networks...

Lee et al. combine calcium imaging in freely behaving mice with similarity-based analyses to identify a reliable pattern of hippocampal remapping and illustrate that accurate model predictions capture...

Learning and memory are so fundamental to us, so enmeshed throughout cognition, that ‘solving’ memory, unpacking its neural mechanisms and being able to conceptualise it fully will, I believe, res…
