VR is being utilized to revolutionize traditional maze studies. Researchers from Princeton University (NJ, USA) have used a virtual reality (VR) technique to demonstrate that mice accumulate evidence ...

A test of fish behavior in a maze has shed light on human degenerative conditions, heralding new hope for treatments. Fish swimming through a simple maze has shown 'exceptional' potential to improve ...

As people age, their working memory often declines, making it more difficult to perform everyday tasks. One key brain region linked to this type of memory is the anterior thalamus, which is primarily ...

Researchers have identified a circuit in the anterior thalamus that is necessary for remembering how to navigate a maze. This region could offer a promising target for treatments that could help ...

Researchers at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre at University College London have discovered that the hippocampus creates a vector-based representation to support animals to make optimal navigation ...
