NEW preprint with @stephen-ramanoel.bsky.social and @mobilebrainimaging.bsky.social 🎉
In this final study of my PhD, we combined immersive virtual reality with mobile EEG and gait analysis during a path integration task, recording from 30 young and 32 older adults

"Spatial navigation in preclinical Alzheimer's disease: A review"
arxiv.org/abs/2603.23082
We focus on spatial navigation as a sensitive cognitive marker in preclinical AD, compiling evidence from cognitively unimpaired individuals with positive AD biomarkers.
My first-author review ‘Determinants of individual navigation ability’ is out in Nature Reviews Psychology, co-authored with the inspiring @hugospiers.bsky.social!!!! 🎉🧠

Is spatial navigation innate 🧠? Using #NeuroPixels we show that the #torus 🍩 underlying the #GridCell map exists already on day 10 in rats — before pups open eyes and ears and before they start upright walking. 🧵1:4

💯 there's definitely a big divide between human and animal neuroscience. e.g., there are few training courses that take a unified approach, it feels highly separated. a big missed opportunity...

In the bizarro world of academic journals, the rights of the author are sacrosanct and the integrity of the scientific record is someone else's problem. A paper's validity depends on emails sent 2 months later. Datasets are interchangeable. The overall conclusions of the study are not affected.
This is going to be an amazing conference in Athens in June 2026

In other words, theta activity in the RSC appears to anchor the body to surrounding space in an adaptive, orientation-stabilizing fashion.
This mechanism is fundamental for spatial orienting and it’s another very impressive contribution from @clementnaveilhan.bsky.social using mobile EEG with VR.
💡 Theta episodes increase at rotation onset, likely driven by vestibular acceleration signals, and
🧨 Most importantly, theta episodes align with the body’s cardinal axes, revealing a striking egocentric four-fold symmetry only during goal-directed rotations!
