Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Spatial cognition is an umbrella term used to refer to the complex set of abilities necessary to encode, categorize, and use spatial information from the surrounding environment to move effectively and orient within it. Experimental studies indicate that

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.Strong associations exist between vividness of conscious visual mental imagery and the trisynaptic circuit and, to a lesser extent, the parasubiculum. A large but previously‐unidentified subregion comprising 49% of the hippocampal formation has no association with the vividness of conscious visual mental imagery.

Allocentric and egocentric spatial impairments in a case of topographical disorientation
, 2005 We describe a patient with a topographical disorientation after a stroke of the right mediotemporooccipital lobe including the parahippocampal cortex (PHC).

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 Deficits in amnesic patients suggest that spatial cognition and episodic memory are intimately related. Among the different types of spatial processing, the allocentric, relying on the hippocampal formation and the egocentric-updated, relying on parieto ...

Hippocampal Subfield Volumetry and Navigation in Congenital Blindness
Hippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 5, September 2026.ABSTRACT The hippocampus is essential for efficient navigation. Although lack of visual experience from birth induces volumetric and structural modifications to the hippocampus, tactile and auditory navigation remain partially preserved in congenitally blind (CB) individuals.

Navigating space and the developing mind
Frontiers in PsychologyIn this article, we review the extensive and complex fabric of literature concerning the ontogenesis of spatial representations from earliest childhood to the elderly, including normal and abnormal aging (dementia and Alzheimer’s disease).

Lateral Entorhinal Cortex Lesions Impair Local Spatial Frameworks
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2017 A prominent theory in the neurobiology of memory processing is that episodic memory is supported by contextually gated spatial representations in the hippocampus formed by combining spatial information from medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) with non-spatial

The Human Subiculum and Its Role in Spatiotemporal Memory and Mental Imagery
Hippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 5, September 2026.ABSTRACT Traditionally viewed as a mere relay station of the hippocampal formation, the subiculum is emerging as a computational hub of the medial temporal lobe, essential for multiplexed neural representations guiding behavior. While foundational animal research has revealed that its sophisticated cytoarchitecture allows for conjunctive coding of ...

Congenital blindness limits allocentric to egocentric switching ability
, 2018 Many everyday spatial activities require the cooperation or switching between egocentric (subject-to-object) and allocentric (object-to-object) spatial representations.

How semantic context and temporal dynamics affect egocentric and allocentric spatial representations
Scientific ReportsPouring water from a bottle into a glass requires representing their relative spatial positions (spatial information) and knowing that such objects are found together, or one by one (temporal dynamics), in typical contexts, such as a kitchen (semantic ...
