摘要
Spatial navigation, which enables animals to move in an oriented way, is a complex, dynamic behavior fundamental for everyday survival. Animals navigate their environments using cognitive maps, which are internal representations of external space acquired by the brain through integration of multisensory cues. Deficits in spatial navigation skills are often preclinical signs of Alzheimer’s disease in seniors and neurodevelopmental disorders in children and adolescents(Coughlan et al., 2018;Faedda et al., 2022).
