Susan C. Horvath

Susan C. Horvath is a neuroscientist and biologist specializing in understanding how brains process spatial information and navigation. Her research often focuses on how animals, including humans, use their senses and brain structures—like the hippocampus—to recognize environments, remember routes, and orient themselves in space. By studying brain activity and behavior, she aims to uncover the neural mechanisms underlying spatial awareness, which has implications for understanding memory, learning, and conditions like Alzheimer's disease. Her work bridges neuroscience, biology, and psychology to better comprehend how we navigate and interpret the world around us.
