These findings demonstrate a dual role of theta oscillations in the RSC, flexibly integrating multimodal signals, 1) supporting both the recalibration of spatial representations to external cues and 2) the encoding of self-motion information during naturalistic human navigation.

Increased theta power in the RSC accompanied corrections in pointing to landmarks. Diminished sync was observed for extensive spatial updating.

We identified motor-related theta responses that scaled with rotational acceleration, replicating our previous results (Gramann et al., 2021 SciRep).

In a path integration task with repeated presentations of a landmark to calibrate the path integrator, we found variations in theta power and phase resetting with each landmark presentation, dependent on the accuracy of location representation of said landmark.

Clement spent quite some time at the Berlin Mobile Brain/Body Imaging labs (#BeMoBIL) here at #TUBerlin, programming the setup and recording the data. He did an amazing job throughout the analysis of the data - and the results are quite impressive.

Interesting experiment by @zakdjebbara.bsky.social amd team demonstrating that navigational decisions are associated with the distance to, but not necessarily the visibility of, the destination.

Zakaria Djebbara @zakdjebbara.bsky.social · Mar 11

Cognitive Maps vs. Visibility 🧠👀

In uncertain environments, how do we make navigation decisions? Is the distance on our mental map more important, or is it the destination's visibility?

This study was conducted by architecture students in our science book club!

And so it begins — NIH is planning to terminate active grants that no longer meet the agency's "priorities".

Grants that were already approved for funding through peer review.

The pursuit of knowledge should be apolitical, inclusive, and forward-thinking.

🧪 #PeerReview #DefendResearch

Exclusive: NIH to terminate hundreds of active research grants

Studies that touch on LGBT+ health, gender identity and DEI in the biomedical workforce could be terminated, according to documents obtained by Nature.
