Piecing Together Cognitive Maps One Dimension at a Time
Abstract
In this issue of Neuron, Park et al. (2020) show that the brain forms unified cognitive maps of relational knowledge. The hippocampal-entorhinal region and medial prefrontal cortices spontaneously combine multiple, distinct rank orders to two-dimensional cognitive maps enabling flexible inference.
