  1. Mar 6, 2024 · One brain region that could play a role in encoding concave and convex environmental features is the subiculum, a structure that receives highly convergent inputs from both the hippocampal...

  2. Mar 6, 2024 · From left to right, concave, convex and straight environmental features are respectively encoded by corner cells (concave or convex) and boundary vector cells. UC Irvine, Stanford University and UC San Diego team up for breakthrough research in the brain’s spatial mapping system.

  3. Mar 6, 2024 · A research team co-led by the University of California, Irvine, Stanford University and the University of California, San Diego has discovered that there are special neurons dedicated to representing the convex and concave features of environments (commonly referred to as “corners”) in their study of the brain’s spatial mapping system ...

  4. May 7, 2023 · One brain region that could play a role in encoding environmental corners is the subiculum, a major output structure of 40 the hippocampus that receives highly convergent inputs from both the hippocampal sub-region CA1 and the medial entorhinal cortex (35, 36).

  5. Mar 6, 2024 · Crucial to the reconstruction of the geometric layout of natural environments are concave and convex features, such as corners and protrusions. However, the neural substrates that could...

  6. However, the neural substrates that could underlie the perception of concavity and convexity in the environment remain elusive. Here we show that the dorsal subiculum contains neurons that encode corners across environmental geometries in an allocentric reference frame.

  8. May 7, 2023 · Here we show that the dorsal subiculum contains neurons that encode corners across environmental geometries in an allocentric reference frame. Corner cells changed their activity to reflect concave corner angles, wall height and the degree of wall intersection.
