How a simple robotics model of mammal navigation is useful to interpret neurobiological recordings
Place recognition is a complex process involving idiothetic and allothetic information. In mammals, evidence suggests that visual information stemming from the temporal and parietal cortical areas (‘what’ and ‘where’ information) is merged at the level of the entorhinal cortex (EC) …
How does the brain’s spatial map change when we change the shape of the room?
A latest report about grid cells from Sainsbury Wellcome Centre at UCL. The following is excerpted from the report.
Our ability to navigate the world, and form episodic memories, relies on an accurate representation of the environment around us. …
The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2014 was awarded to John O’Keefe, May-Britt Moser and Edvard I. Moser “for their discoveries of cells that constitute a positioning system in the brain.”
A summary report of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2014 on the www.nobelprize.org
The following content is excerpted from the reference -The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2014. NobelPrize.org. Nobel Media AB 2019. Thu. 10 Jan 2019. …
How the brain works on many different levels, from human interactions to the chemistry of neurotransmitters?
Video from: https://vimeo.com/249492053
Scientists examine the brain and how it works on many different levels, from human interactions to the chemistry of neurotransmitters. This animations compares the scale of the different research subjects.
Made in collaboration with INM-1 of Forschungszentrum …
What if we could design an autonomous flying robot with the navigational and learning abilities of a honeybee?
Some brief introduction about the project ‘Brains on Board: Neuromorphic Control of Flying Robots’
What if we could design an autonomous flying robot with the navigational and learning abilities of a honeybee? Such a computationally and energy-efficient autonomous …
Brain-inspired dynamic path replanning in autonomous navigation for robotic swarms
What do animal brains have in common with a swarm of robots?
In an effort to improve robotic swarming algorithms, an interdisciplinary team of scientists will study how the brain allows an animal to navigate and change its route while …
