Introduction to the special issue on the cognitive functions of the retrosplenial cortex.

This special issue on the cognitive functions of the retrosplenial cortex highlights progress that has been made in recent years in understanding the anatomy and function of the retrosplenial cortex in both animals and humans. The articles in this issue of Behavioral Neuroscience use a number of different approaches that together provide an up-to-date account of recent progress in understanding how the retrosplenial cortex contributes to cognition, with an emphasis on its functional role in spatial navigation and learning and memory.
