Though extensively studied e.g. in the context of item novelty [1], human neuroimaging studies of spatial novelty and its impact on long-term memory formation remains relatively scarce. Limited reports show that spatial novelty can boost long-term memory [e.g. 2] and is associated with distinct responses along the cortical surface and hippocampal long axis [3, 4], which requires further investigation. Here, we assessed participants during navigation of a virtual reality environment using ultra-high field 7T fMRI…
