Time Encoding in the Lateral Entorhinal Cortex
A presentation of the 2025 Science paper shows how the Lateral Entorhinal Cortex (LEC) encodes time via two mechanisms. A continuous 'slow drift' and abrupt 'shifts' at event boundaries.

Hippocampal memory is compositional, and performs consolidation primarily through replay, allowing for zero-shot generalization and the construction of future behavior

The VectorHASH model separates memory content from a fixed, stable scaffold derived from hippocampal structure, integrating episodic and spatial memory

Understand how the dimensionality of abstract representation in the brain supports generalization

The hippocampus learns by forming an "orthogonalized state machine," enabling contextual separation and flexible learning.

The topic of this year's NABI symposium, we explore how hippocampal circuits reveal the principles behind flexible, context-dependent memory.
