This is the question our guest, Kate Jeffery - chair of the Royal Institute of Navigation's Cognitive Navigation Group (CogNav) and professor of behavioural neuroscience at University College London, where she founded the Institute of Behavioural Neuroscience and runs the Jeffery Lab - attempts to answer. Steven has the pleasure of speaking with Kate to get a summary of the current state of research and understanding of how we comprehend location.
