“…The principal motivation to examine their topography arises from the growing evidence for functional differences along the anterior–posterior axis of the hippocampus (Collin, Milivojevic, & Doeller, 2015; Fanselow & Dong, 2010; Poppenk, Evensmoen, Moscovitch, & Nadel, 2013; Strange, Witter, Lein, & Moser, 2014). For instance, evidence from functional neuroimaging studies suggests a role of the posterior hippocampus in spatial navigation (e.g., Hartley, Maguire, Spiers, & Burgess, 2003), whereas anterior hippocampus has been associated with goal‐directed spatial decision making (Viard, Doeller, Hartley, Bird, & Burgess, 2011). Thus, a method that would allow the anatomical dissociation of fibers associated with anterior and posterior hippocampal regions in humans would aid the study of functional dissociation between these different hippocampal networks.…”
