Memory for temporal structure enables both planning of future events and retrospection past events. We investigated how the brain flexibly represents extended sequences into during anticipation. Participants learned environments in immersive virtual reality. Pairs had same a different order, enabling context-specific learning. During fMRI, participants anticipated upcoming multiple steps given sequence. Temporal was represented hippocampus across higher-order visual regions (1) bidirectionally, with graded representations (2) hierarchically, further successively more anterior regions.

Human medial parietal cortex (MPC) is implicated in multiple cognitive processes including memory recall, visual scene processing and navigation, a core component of the default mode network. Here, we demonstrate distinct subdivisions MPC that are selectively recruited during recall either specific people or places. First, regions exhibited differential functional connectivity with lateral ventral temporal (VTC). Second, these same showed selective, but negative, responses to presentation different stimulus categories, clear preferences for scenes faces. Finally, most critically, were differentially places strong familiarity advantage. Taken together, data suggest organizing principle defining medial-lateral axis VTC reflected MPC, context recall.

A foundational finding in the field of memory is that content-sensitive patterns neural activity expressed during perceptual experiences are re-expressed when remembered, a phenomenon termed reactivation. However, reactivation obscures key differences how events and memories represented brain.Recent findings suggest systematic, spatial transformations from perception to retrieval. These occur within sensory cortex frontoparietal cortex.We consider why identify critical questions be addressed future research. Understanding ways which representations differ will critically inform theoretical accounts help clarify brain recreates past.

The neural systems supporting scene-perception and spatial-memory of the human brain are well-described. But how do these interact? Here, using fine-grained individual-subject fMRI, we report three cortical areas brain, each lying immediately anterior to a region scene perception network in posterior cerebral cortex, that selectively activate when recalling familiar real-world locations. Despite their close proximity areas, analyses show regions constitute distinct functional interfaces with spatial memory during naturalistic understanding. These "place-memory areas" offer new framework for understanding implements memory-guided visual behaviors, including navigation.

Abstract During memory recall and visual imagery, reinstatement is thought to occur as an echoing of the neural patterns during encoding. However, precise information in these traces relatively unknown, with previous work primarily investigating either broad distinctions or specific images, rarely bridging levels information. Using ultra-high-field (7T) functional magnetic resonance imaging item-based task, we conducted in-depth comparison encoding along a spectrum granularity, from coarse (scenes, objects) mid (e.g., natural, manmade scenes) fine living room, cupcake) levels. In scanner, participants viewed trial-unique item, after distractor visually imagined initial item. encoding, observed decodable at all granularity category-selective cortex. contrast, was level fine-level some areas; there no evidence mid-level A closer look revealed segregation between voxels showing strongest effects those recall, peaks encoding–recall similarity extended anterior Collectively, results suggest not merely reactivation patterns, displaying different representational structure localization despite overlap.

Abstract Reactivation of earlier perceptual activity is thought to underlie long-term memory recall. Despite evidence for this view, it unclear whether mnemonic exhibits the same tuning properties as feedforward activity. Here, we leverage population receptive field models parameterize fMRI in human visual cortex during spatial retrieval. Though retinotopic organization present both perception and memory, large systematic differences are also evident. Whereas there a three-fold decline precision from early late areas perception, pattern not observed This difference cannot be explained by reduced signal-to-noise or poor performance on trials. Instead, simulating top-down network model cortex, demonstrate that property well hierarchical structure system. Together, modeling empirical results suggest computational constraints imposed system architecture limit fidelity reactivation sensory cortex.

Human medial parietal cortex (MPC) is recruited during multiple cognitive processes. Previously, we demonstrated regions specific to recall of people or places and proposed that the functional organization MPC mirrors category selectivity defining medial-lateral axis ventral temporal (VTC). However, prior work considered only VTC also shows object-selectivity sandwiched between face- scene-selective regions. Here, tested a strong prediction our proposal: like VTC, should show region specifically object recall, its relative cortical position mirror one VTC. While responses place showed striking replication findings, did not observe any evidence for object-recall effects within MPC, which differentiates it from spatial in Importantly, beyond robust recall-effects were observed people, places, objects on lateral surface brain.
