Abstract
“Here, we report a new network of brain areas bridging the spatial-memory and scene-perception systems of the human brain. Using fine-grained individual-subject fMRI, we reveal three cortical areas of the human brain, each lying immediately anterior to a region of the scene perception network in posterior cerebral cortex, that selectively activate when recalling familiar places. Despite their close proximity to the scene-perception areas, network analyses show that these regions constitute a distinct functional network that interfaces with memory systems during naturalistic scene understanding. This new network, which conveys memory signals to visually-responsive posterior cortex, offers a new framework for understanding how the brain implements memory-guided visual behaviors like navigation.”
