The futuristic manifolds of REM sleep

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Since one of its first descriptions 70 years ago, rapid eye movement sleep has continually inspired and excited new generations of sleep researchers. Despite significant advancements in understanding its neurocircuitry, underlying mechanisms and microstates, many questions regarding its function, especially beyond the early neurodevelopment ...

Representationalism and the Spatial Representational Contents of Afterimage Experiences

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Experiences of afterimages have often been cited as counterexamples to representationalism about vision, that is, as counterexamples to the thesis that the phenomenal character of a visual experience is completely determined by its representational content. In this paper, I discuss a possible counterexample to representationalism that is based

Charting New Paths in the Study of Kin Term Acquisition

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Kin terms appear among infants’ earliest words, yet a full mastery of kin concepts typically emerges only in late childhood. This prolonged developmental trajectory reflects not only children's acquisition of an abstract relational system of words, but also their growing understanding of social relationships and interactional norms.

Influence of Pre‐Service Teachers' Spatial Activity Interests Shape Spatial Anxiety, Perspective Taking, and Mistakes

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Education, Volume 61, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the pre‐service teachers' interest in spatial activities and whether their spatial anxieties were related to their spatial perspective‐taking abilities. Additionally, the study aimed to describe pre‐service teachers' mistakes in spatial perspective‐taking and the types of activities they were most interested in.

Boundary Vector Cells Encode a Future‐Biased Spectrum of Positions in the Rat

open access: yesHippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Spatial tuning is a hallmark property of neural firing in the hippocampal formation. Yet, that tuning is often less well correlated with the instantaneous current position of an animal than it is with an integrated version of the past or future state of the animal.

The flexible, the stereotyped and the in‐between: putting together the combinatory tool use origins hypothesis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1235-1254, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

What Counts as an Environment in Memory Research? Conceptualizing Environment Across Memory Traditions

open access: yesWIREs Cognitive Science, Volume 17, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
This review shows that environment–memory research is divided not only by method, but by different definitions of what an environment is through the comparison of category‐, feature‐, and context‐based traditions. ABSTRACT Research on memory and the physical environment has expanded across neuroscience, environmental psychology, and spatial cognition ...

The Development of Temporal Memory for Complex Events

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Remembering when past events occurred is a key component of episodic memory, yet its developmental trajectory remains only partially understood. This study examined how children aged 6 and 10, compared to young adults, recall the timing of events embedded in an 11‐min cartoon.

MapNet: An Allocentric Spatial Memory for Mapping Environments [PDF]

open access: yes2018 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2018
Autonomous agents need to reason about the world beyond their instantaneous sensory input. Integrating information over time, however, requires switching from an egocentric representation of a scene to an allocentric one, expressed in the world reference frame. It must also be possible to update the representation dynamically, which requires localizing

The Dorsal‐Ventral Account of Picture Perception

open access: yesPhilosophy Compass, Volume 21, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT What is the nature of our perception of pictures? Philosophers intrigued by this question, and adopting a naturalistic perspective, have turned to findings from visual neuroscience to answer it. This perspective seeks to address the question within the framework of the Two Visual Systems Model, which provides a specific anatomo‐functional ...
